I don’t see the definitions or option list you’re supposed to match these terms to. Could you paste the answer choices (the definitions or short descriptions) and I’ll match them for you?
If you don’t have them handy, here are typical course-appropriate meanings and how they relate — you can map them to your answer choices:
- Responsible reading — A critical, contextual, evidence-based approach to texts: attending to authorial purpose, historical/cultural context, word choice and argument, and supporting interpretations with textual evidence. Often taught as a disciplined practice that balances open response with textual accountability.
- Responsive reading — A reader-centered approach emphasizing personal reaction, affect, and connection: noticing emotional, imaginative, associative responses and how texts resonate with the reader’s experience or prior knowledge. Less about proof and more about response.
- Struggling reader — A student who has difficulty with decoding, fluency, vocabulary or comprehension; may need scaffolding, differentiated instruction, explicit strategy teaching, and formative feedback to access grade-level texts.
- Complex narratives — Texts with layered structure or demands: multiple perspectives, non-linear chronology, ambiguous or unreliable narrators, intertextuality, dense symbolism or thematic complexity that require close reading and interpretive work.
Relationships (how they connect):
- Responsible reading and responsive reading are complementary: good practice combines the reader’s personal responses (responsive) with careful evidence-based interpretation (responsible).
- Complex narratives demand responsible reading strategies and often benefit from prompting responsive engagement to access layers of meaning.
- Struggling readers may find complex narratives particularly challenging and need targeted supports that blend responsive engagement (to build motivation) with explicit responsible-reading strategies (to build comprehension skills).
