Six Active Reading Strategies Visualize Clarify Question Predict Connect Evaluate *Valerie Called Queen Priscilla Cute and Energetic*

Visualize Describe the images you see as the author describes them. Use the details in the text to create the “movie in your mind”.

Clarify STOP & PAY ATTENTION! Summarize what you just read. This is a great place to stop & check whether you understand the text As you continue reading, if you find answers to any questions you may have had, make a note of them

Question Ask questions about the text What are you confused by? What is motivating the character(s)? Why are certain things happening?

Predict Try to figure out what will happen next and how the book might end. Then read on and see how accurate your guesses are.

Connect personally with what you are reading. Think of similarities between the descriptions in the book and anything you may have experienced. Also, connect to anything you may have already read or seen in the media (movies, news, facebook, twitter, magazines, newspapers, the Internet).

Evaluate Form opinions about what you have read-both while you are reading and after you have finished. Develop your own ideas about characters and events. Make a logical guess or come to a conclusion based on the book.

Reading Log In your binder there should be a reading log section. You are EXPECTED to read THREE times a week. After reading, you will journal your thoughts. On Fridays, after SSR, you will respond quickly to what you read and your log will be checked!
