READING STRATEGIES to build comprehension (understanding what we 
read):
1. Making Connections: prompts readers to use their own experiences 
to better understand the characters' feelings and actions.

2.  Visualizing: helps readers picture in their minds what is going 
on in the story to gain a clearer understanding.  Students should 
try make a picture, like a movie, in their heads.

3. Predict: causes readers to analyze information given about a 
story events and characters in the context of how it might logically 
connect to the stories conclusion.
