Does reading strategies really help you with your test? For some reason, I don't pass when I do my reading strategies.

Identify your answer by circling, putting a period, or underline it. 12. Put what paragraph number where you found your answer. I did those strategies on a practiced standardized test. But I got a 81 on it! When I just read the story and answer the questions, I missed 1! I got a 98 on that practiced standardized test! For some reason, my head starts hurting when I do those strategies and get lower grades. But my teacher insist that I do them. What to do

Was I unclear about teaching reading to students who speak Ebonics? I may have been unclear in my question on teaching reading to students who speaks Ebonics. I was not suggesting that we teach Ebonics, the students who already know it, that would be beating a dead horse. However, it is a common dialect and these are the students who tend to score poorly on reading assessments. I was simply looking for ideas on which teaching strategies seem to be the most effective. I am asking if we should teach standard American English and reading to students who already speak Ebonics as if standard English is their second language or second dialect(whichever you choose). If the students are already speaking Ebonics, should we teach standard American English to them in order to enhance their reading skills? What other suggestions do you have for overcoming the Ebonics language challenge in order to produce an outstanding reading student?
