In secondary science classes, robust reading comprehension skills are crucial. They empower students to effectively navigate and understand complex scientific materials, including research articles, data-driven reports, and theoretical texts. This skill set is fundamental for dissecting and grasping intricate scientific concepts, theories, and real-world applications, spanning from biology to physics. Not only do these skills lay the groundwork for academic achievement in science, but they also cultivate scientifically literate individuals who can critically assess and apply scientific knowledge in their daily lives and broader societal issues.
