Say more about that” “Why do you think that?" Cuing students back to the text to validate or extend thinking “Show me where you thought that...” “What in the text made you think that?” Re-teaching how to apply strategies taught (modeling, guiding) "Thave a question here...; Let's read this part— do you have any questions about this?” Generalizing a behavior that is characteristic of good readers “Oh, 80 you are making an inference (or using your background knowledge, etc.)" Reflecting back to children how smart they are by showing respect for and interest in their thinking “Tnever thought about it ike that before” “What an interesting idea” “Such a thoughtful question. | hope we find out something about that as we read.” Encouraging peer discussion to develop thinking - make ourselves obsolete (in conferences with more than one child) “What do you think about what ___ said?” “Do you have any background knowledge about what __ wondered?” ‘Joanne Durham 2013 ET Reading Comprehension Modules ~ www.readingrecovery.clemson.edu DOK Question Stems DOK1 * Can you recall__?
