While You Read…Developing Questions Refer to your Signpost Notes pages & use them to create questions for weekly group discussions. Questions should be deeper, critical thinking ones, that generate discussions, debates and analysis. Example: Discuss the metaphor of a glass castle, and what it signifies to each family member. How does this metaphor evolve (if at all) throughout the memoir?
