The current study aimed at investigating the effect of KWL and SQ3R strategies on Palestinian eighth graders' reading comprehension skills. To achieve the study goals, the researcher adopted the experimental approach on a sample of (119) female students from Al-Kuwait Secondary School at Rafah governorate for the academic year 2019-2020. The participants were divided into three equivalent groups. The researcher used a pre and post reading comprehension test to achieve the aims of the study. Results revealed there are statistically significant differences at (α ≤ 0.01) in the total average score of the post-test between the first experimental group and the control group in favor of the first experimental group that learns by KWL strategy. Additionally, the study results showed that there are statistically significant differences at (α ≤ 0.01) in the total average score of the post-test between the second experimental group and the control group in favor of the second experimental group that learns by SQ3R strategy. Also, the study results revealed that there are statistically significant differences at (α ≤ 0.01) in the total average score of the post-test between the first and second experimental groups in favor of the first experimental group. In the light of these results, the researcher introduced some recommendations such as designing some training courses for teachers to encourage them to use these strategies.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of the differentiated teaching strategy in developing reading comprehension skills of fourth grade students in the United Arab Emirates. The study sample consisted of (49) male and female students, who were randomly distributed into an experimental group (23 students), and a control group (26 students). The experimental group was taught using the Differentiated Teaching strategy, and the control group was taught using the traditional method. To conduct the study and answer its questions, the researchers used the quasi-experimental approach and constructed a reading comprehension test. After the completion of the study, the post-test of reading comprehension skills was implemented; scores of the two groups were obtained; and the data were analyzed using the appropriate statistical methods. The results revealed that there were statistically significant differences in the post-test at the four levels (literal, deductive, critical, and creative) and reading skills in general between the scores of the two study groups in favor of the experimental group. This indicates that the Differentiated Teaching strategy had a positive impact on developing students' reading comprehension skills. In light of the results, a number of recommendations were drafted and presented.
