Aim. Existing models and theories for reading in classrooms are aimed for teaching in the classroom. In spring 2020 schools changed to distance teaching and the question arose, whether these models would function in distance teaching. Since there was no experience from such in Finland there is also very little research in this field. Therefor this study wants to review the usage of reading strategies in teaching in grade nine and how they have worked when schools went to distance teaching in spring 2020. Methods. This study is a case study. The material is collected qualitatively through a semi-structured interview and by getting access to a recorded lesson and som written material given by the teacher. One teacher and 33 pupils participated in this study. The material was analyzed using a thematic analysis. Results and conclusions. The results show that the teacher uses reading strategies and models in the teaching of reading fiction. They also indicate that the teacher manages to continue teaching online in a very similar way by creating a virtual classroom for the pupils.
