Wisconsin FORT (Foundations of Reading) Practice Test

Before students can comprehend a text and engage in discussion, they must first understand the words contained in which of the following?

1. That text

2. Glossary

3. Title

4. Index

The correct answer is: That text

Before students can comprehend a text and engage in discussion, they must first understand the words contained in that text. Understanding the vocabulary used in a text is crucial for comprehension. Without a good grasp of the words used in the text, students may struggle to make sense of the overall meaning and may have difficulty engaging in meaningful discussions about the text. Glossaries, titles, and indexes may provide additional information or organization, but understanding the vocabulary within the text itself is essential for comprehension.
