| description | The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of using three methods of teaching reading comprehension on the achievement of a group of third grade female students with learning disabilities. These methods were the conventional teaching of reading comprehension as used by the special education teacher, a modified version of reciprocal teaching, and the method of key words. Statistical analyses revealed that students' achievement on the modified version of reciprocal teaching was significantly higher than their achievement on the other two methods. This was the only significant difference found in this study. Limitations of this study and suggestions for future research are discussed. |
