Predict What does it mean?

PREDICT Guess what happens next. “I think ____ will happen next”

Question What does it mean?

QUESTION Ask yourself questions as you read. Use words like, “Why? How? What If?” “If the river wasn’t so cold…” “I wonder how she would feel if...” (Remember Bloom’s Taxonomy here!)

Evaluate What does it mean?

EVALUATE Make judgements about what you’re reading. “This part is confusing because…” “I think it’s unrealistic when…”

Visualization What does it mean?

VISUALIZATION Imagine the words as a picture or a movie. What would it look like? “In my mind, I can see…” “This is making me picture…”

How can we remember the strategies easier? Connect Clarify Question Predict Evaluate Visualize Cory Collins Quietly Practiced Ellen’s Violin
