Which of the following best describes the role of a teacher in helping students become independent readers?

  1. Providing answers to all questions

  2. Modeling and guiding through reading strategies

  3. Reading all texts aloud for the students

  4. Writing all assignments for the students

The correct answer is: Providing answers to all questions

The correct answer is B. Modeling and guiding through reading strategies. Teachers play a crucial role in helping students become independent readers by teaching them reading strategies and modeling how to use them effectively. By providing guidance and support rather than simply giving out answers, teachers empower students to develop their reading skills and become adept at comprehending texts on their own. This approach cultivates critical thinking skills and independence in students as they engage with various types of literature.
