Reading Strategies in the Sciences

One things that I believe can be helpful to students is for them to go through the chapter of the text and find questions on materials they believe to be difficult. Then when they come to class, I should have the students reading questions aloud and thinking aloud to answers in which might address certain difficulties. I believe that as a field of science thinking aloud is one of the main ingredients to being successful at reading the material and comprehending what you are doing. Since my content area of chemistry requires math to be involved then thinking aloud is a great reading strategy for students. Once a student can read the problem assigned and be able to verbally explain what they are doing mathematically then they will understand the material better. This reading strategy is one I believe will be extremely helpful to me in my classroom, but I'm having trouble with other reading strategies. Does anyone have any ideas that would be good reading strategies for a chemistry classroom?
