Option (A) is correct. Because a student with good decoding skills but
poor comprehension often has weak language skills, a teacher needs to
focus attention on development of the student's vocabulary. Interventions
include teaching the meanings of new words through the use of strategies
like graphic organizers, pictures, and mnemonics and teaching how to use
context clues. Improving a student's vocabulary increases the likelihood
that the student will understand the words encountered in written text.
Students in a tenth-grade inclusion class are learning to write essays on a teacher-
assigned topic. During one of the lessons, the special education co teacher asks
students to exchange their draft essay for that of a peer. The students have just
completed a minicourse on peer review, and the data show that they are ready to
practice the intervention technique with classmates. Which of the following is the
primary purpose of a peer review intervention?
Encouraging students to complete their essay on time
Introducing students to a variety of approaches to a specific writing topic
Providing valuable feedback for both students and teachers
Allowing teachers to use their time more efficiently during the school day

Option (C) is correct. Reviewing peers' draft essays empowers high school
students to become more confident as writers because the process
acknowledges that students have a genuine voice that needs to be heard.
Peer review provides feedback for both teachers and students, triggers
constructive discussions in the classroom, and creates a classroom
environment that leads to academic growth.
