Making Text Connections for Grade 8 students becomes an engaging and interactive learning experience through Wayground's comprehensive collection of guided video lessons with embedded questions and comprehension checks. These interactive videos systematically teach students how to establish meaningful relationships between texts and their own experiences, other texts, and the broader world around them. Students develop critical thinking skills as they pause throughout video lessons to respond to targeted questions that assess their ability to make text-to-self, text-to-text, and text-to-world connections, while real-time feedback helps reinforce proper connection-making strategies and deepen their overall reading comprehension abilities. Wayground's platform empowers teachers with access to millions of teacher-created interactive video resources specifically designed to strengthen students' text connection skills through searchable, standards-aligned content that can be easily filtered by difficulty level and learning objective. The platform's robust differentiation tools allow educators to customize video lessons and embedded questions to meet diverse student needs, while flexible digital delivery formats enable seamless integration into classroom instruction, independent practice sessions, or homework assignments. Teachers can strategically use these interactive video collections for initial skill introduction, targeted remediation for struggling readers, enrichment opportunities for advanced learners, and ongoing reinforcement of connection-making strategies that transfer across all reading experiences and academic subjects.
