ASK & ANSWER QUESTIONS

Juggle generating questions and finding answers

Generate during-reading questions.

Questioning isn’t just done at the beginning. Readers continue to wonder, adding questions while reading.

Jot questions on sticky notes.

During reading, adhere each “sticky question” to the text detail that answers it.

Pause frequently during reading to assess questions answered—and ask new ones.
