With our second set of conferences right around the corner, I'm anticipating many questions on how parents can help to prepare their child for the upcoming state reading test. Rather than giving the parents a stack of practice test selections, I've created Before, During and After Reading Questions to use with authentic reading. I designed questions that require the depth of thinking needed according to the common core standards. I've included both reading literature and reading information text questions. These questions are available for free at my TPT Store. In addition to passing them out to parents at conferences, here are some other ways they can be used.
- Buddy Reading-the kiddos can take during asking each other the BDA questions as they read.
- Guided Reading Groups
- Information Text questions can be used with Science or Social Studies Texts
- Book Club Discussions
