at perspective - taking, complex reasoning, and academic language in predicting deep comprehension outcomes, b) track developmental trajectories across the middle grades in perspective - taking, complex reasoning, academic language skill, and deep comprehension, c) develop and evaluate curricular and pedagogical approaches designed to promote deep comprehension in the content areas in 4th - 8th grades, and d) develop and evaluate an
intervention program designed for 6th - 8th grade students reading
at 3rd - 4th grade level.The HGSE team will take responsibility, in collaboration with colleagues
at other institutions, for the
following components of the proposed work: Instrument development: Pilot data collection using interviews and candidate assessment items, collaboration with DiscoTest colleagues to develop coding of the pilot data so as to produce well - justified learning sequences for perspective - taking, complex reasoning, academic language skill, and deep comprehension.Curricular development: HGSE investigators Fischer, Selman, Snow, and Uccelli will contribute to the development of a discussion - based curriculum for 4th - 5th graders, and to the expansion of an existing discussion - based curriculum for 6th - 8th graders, with a particular focus on science content (Fischer), social studies content (Selman), and academic language skills (Snow & Uccelli).

at scale; (3) solidifying the commitment of the selected scaling champions (i.e., the person who will drive the continuing development of the
intervention and its implementation
at scale); and (4) building the infrastructure necessary to support effective scaling, including the development of a business plan and training support structure, along with the successful navigation of intellectual property issues.
