What children learn in Level 53
- Strong readers keep busy. Before you read, set a purpose: what do you want to find out?
- As you read, predict what's next, then check. Change your prediction if the story surprises you.
- An inference is what you work out from clues. Text plus what you know equals an inference.
- After each chapter, summarize it in a sentence. Keep the main events, and leave out small details.
