Week 3 – Questioning what we read - 1
When we read we make connections but we also question what we read and think. That is good to do!
When we learn to question while reading we:
- learn the power of asking as well as answering our questions
- become curious about what we are reading
- learn that by asking questions we can get a deeper meaning or understanding
- learn that not all questions can be answered
- exercise our brain and build its power!

Next find a blank sheet of paper (lined or plain) and make a circle in the center of the paper and write What is __________? Put your word in there.
See my example:

Some ideas for writing questions about might be:
What is kindness, war, caring, playing, helping, gardening, building, star gazing, …
Next think of answers you may have that give an answer to your question. You can ask other people too. Write answers that are not full sentences but just a few words.
See my example:

Your turn!
