During Reading
Hand out books to children and ask them to read the first page.
Say and ask: Please read the book, and be prepared to summarize, or retell in your own words, the main events.
Have children read the book independently.
Say: I want you to read the book at your own pace. As you read, stop at the end of each page and think about the important points or events. Read through the book once, then read it again, stopping at the end of each page to mark facts, main points, or words or phrases you don’t understand. You may later address the words or phrases children did not understand.
