Reader Response: Students Develop Text Understanding.

Becker, Ruth R.

Reading Horizons, v40 n2 p103-26 1999

Examines four fifth-grade students' stances and their responses to a narrative text in three classroom activities--a peer-led discussion group, a story map activity, and written responses. Investigates issues regarding the accessibility of shifts in stance for the students. Calls into question L. Rosenblatt's construct of the aesthetic-efferent continuum. (SC)
