The strategy provides a framework for new information. It activate prior knowledge and helps students connect new information with what is already known, as well as setting a purpose for reading. THRILD is used at the start of a new chapter or topic. Explicitly teaching key reading comprehension and learning skills — making connections, self-questioning, visualising, inferring, determining importance, summarising, synthesising and self-monitoring — can help students become more purposeful, active readers, thinkers and learners.
