Comprehension Strategies

The heart of reading is comprehension. 
It is crucial that you are discussing books with your child. 

 

 

 

 
Here are some questions to help guide your discussions:

 

- Where did the story take place? (setting)

- What happened (major events in order)

- Who was the story about? (identify and describe characters)

- What did the author want us to learn? (author's message)

- What does this story make you think about? (making connections)
