Are your questions answered? * Visualizing - share with your child pictures you are thinking of in your head as you read. Encourage them to do the same. * Inferring and Predicting - read between the lines and discuss predictions and inferences. * Main ideas- help your child see the difference between main ideas and details. *Retelling the stories and summarizing - take turns with your child.
