We will be reading various novels this year. Please encourage your child to share what they are reading with you. You can help them by asking some of the following questions at home each night to see if your child is comprehending what they read. If they are unable to answer some of the questions, have them write them down to bring to class the following day so that we can discuss them together as a class. With each story you will find specific questions to help your child with the story on the story page.
1. Who are the characters in the story? 2. What has happened in the story so far? Can you summarize it? 3. Has there been any problems in the story the main character has to solve? If so, how did he or she solve them? 4. Why do you think the author wrote the story? What in the story helps you think that? |
