As readers, we have started to practice the reading strategy of questioning as we read. Good readers stay active as they are reading and question things that are happening, things that might happen, what words mean, characters intentions, and many more things! Some of our questions are answered in the text and some are not. Sometimes these unanswered questions are the best discussion starters!
Today we finished reading the book The Mary Celeste: An Unsolved Mystery from History. The students really enjoyed it! They were disappointed that the book ended as a cliff hanger, and had many great questions along the way.
When you child is reading at home, ask them to share some questions they had during reading with you!
