Good Readers

Good readers use the reading comprehension strategies as they read. You have heard me say this several times already and we have completed only the first month of school. The reading comprehension stratgies include
  • making connections
  • asking questions
  • visualizing
  • predicting
  • inferring
  • activating your prior knowledge
  • monitoring your comprehension
  • determining what's important
  • syntheszing

Please answer the following as you comment today . . .

1. Describe which strategy is the easiest for you and why.

2. Describe which stragtey is the hardest for you and why.

3. What are you looking forward to this year in reading?

The easiest stragie is asking questions. Its easy because i get a lot of questions when i read in my head. The hardest is making connections because i dont have very many memories. That and i cant remember!

The easiest for me is prediction because it can be true what you predict.The hardest is connection because if you don"t have one you still have to predict.THe visualzation is pretty easy to me.

i think stopping and asking questions is a good thing to do and have a good time.

Questions is the easiest stragety for me to use because it helps me get the chance to ask the questions that I need to learn.Predicting is the hardest strategy for me to learn because it is hard to get the right answers I need.I am looking forward to going on a feild trip to the library and get our own library cards.Aunother thing I am looking forward to is getting to keep our owne books.

i use the five fainger rule because it helps me understand if the book is to hard for me or to easy for me. i havent encountered a hard strategy. i have learned that the best things in life are the ones who come as a surprise.

visualizing because you can visualize easier because you have got to think of some thing than try to see it in your head and that is visualizing.the hardest would have to be stop and ask quitsionbecause that will take up are reading time that we have trying to pick and idea to quision about what you are reading about. and my goal is going to be keep reading for more than 20minutes because i dont like reading right know...
