QAR 1/31

We have been learning about QAR- Question Answer Relationship

Thinking about the four types of questions, read for 20 minutes and then write a question.
Tell us what type of question you created and how you know...
Remember our four types of questions are"
1. Right There- you can point to the answer
2. Think and Search- you have to take information from many places in the text to get your answer
3. Author and Me- you have to take what the author wrote and your background information to help answer the question
4. On My Own- these questions are our opinions

Good luck and HAPPY READING.

We have been learning to infer in class. Use the inference equation BK+TC=I to make an inference during your 20 minutes of reading tonight. In the comment section, leave the title, author, background knowledge, and text clues that helped you make an inference. I've create an example to help you: Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak The book told me that Max was sent to bed without anything to eat. I know that sometimes kids are sent to bed early when they get in trouble. I can infer that Max's mom must be mad at him.
