  I remind the students that reading is thinking and I teach students to ask questions, predict, clarify, summarize, visualize, and make connections. The web site I mentioned in our group is: http://kbumreading.com/
  This site has great resources.

  I have the students partner read stories & then they wuse retell gloves to explain what happens in the story. I mostly do this activity in my small reading group so that I can spend time with each group listening to their description of the story.

  I use as many picture/ graphic visuals as possible.In kindergarten we begin to teaching using the cue words beginning, middle, and end. When opportunity permits I like to put a book in their hand with a partner and let the students have some dialogue together.

  As much "thinking aloud" practice while reading seems to help...talking aloud through what I'm thinking/connections I'm making and giving them many opportunities to practice that as much as we can. Using visual tools/mapping also.
