Syntactic cueing system: the syntactic cueing system gives the reader clues from the sentence structure, we can predict what type of word will come next in a sentence from our knowledge of the english sentence structure. Ex: the boy rode the ______ bike. (based on our knowledge of english, we know that an adjective must go in the blank. Using the cueing systems together: effective readers use all the cueing systems together to construct meaning from text, example: the boy climbed the __________. Semantic cue: it has to be something you can climb. Pragmatic cue: there are only certain things we climb ladders, trees, mountains.
