  2. Discussion Director • Your job is to find the important parts of the story and make up questions for your group to talk about or discuss. Your questions help your group discuss the story easily. You also give your feelings about the reading.

  3. Discussion Director SAMPLE QUESTIONS • What were you thinking about as you read? • What did the text make you think about? • How might other people (of different backgrounds) think about this text/passage? • What one question would you ask the writer if you got the chance? Why? • What are the most important ideas/moments in this text/section? • What do you think will happen next-and why? • What was the most important change in this section? How and why did it happen?

  4. When we are asked to develop discussion questions, we have to make sure that our questions provide lots of discussion, are interesting, and make people want to talk a lot. Good questions are NOT basic comprehension questions where we can easily find the answer in the book.Good questions are have a purpose and are planned. Good questioning helps: • to explore ideas • to get to the truth of things • to open up issues and problems • to uncover assumptions • to analyze concepts • to distinguish what we know from what we don't know • to follow through with a logical thought • to control the discussion QUESTIONING

  5. Illuminator • You find passages your group would like to/should hear read aloud. These passages should be memorable, interesting, puzzling, funny, or important. Your notes should include quotations but also WHY you chose them, and WHAT you want to say about them. You can either read the passage aloud yourself or ask members of your group to read roles.

  6. Illuminator Quote: WHY did you choose it? WHAT do you want to say about it?

  7. Illuminator SAMPLE QUESTIONS • What were you thinking about as you read? • What did the text make you think about? • What do you think this text/passage was about? • How might other people (of different backgrounds) think about this text/passage? • What one question would you ask the write if you got the chance? Why? • What are the most important ideas/moments in this text/section? • What do you think will happen next-and why? • What was the most important change in this section? How and why did it happen?

  8. Illustrator • Your role is to draw what you read. This might mean drawing part of the story as a cartoon-like sequence, or an important scene so readers can better understand the action. You can draw maps or graphic organizer to show how one person, place, or event relates to the others. Use the notes to explain how your drawing relates to the text. Label your drawings so we know who the characters are.

  9. GRAPHIC ORGANIZER/ORGANIZADOR GRAFICO

  10. Illustrator SAMPLE QUESTIONS Ask members of your group, "What do you think this picture means?" Why did you choose this scene to illustrate? How does this drawing relate to the story? Why did you choose to draw it the way you did? What do we see-i.e. who and/or what is in the picture? What, if anything, did drawing it help you see that you had not noticed before? What did this quotation/passage make you think about when you read it? What are you trying to accomplish through this drawing?

  11. Connector • Your job is to connect what you are reading with what you are studying or with the world outside of school. You can connect the story to events in your own life, news events, political events, or popular trends (movies, books). Another important source of connections should be meaningful to you and those in your group.

  12. Connector SAMPLE QUESTIONS What connections can you make to your own life? What other places or people could you compare this story to? What other books or stories might you compare this to? What other characters, authors, or people you know compare to this one? What is the most interesting or important connection that comes to mind? How does this section relate to those that came before it?

  13. Word Watcher • While reading the assigned section, you watch out for words worth knowing. These words might be interesting, new, important, or used in unusual ways. It is important to write downthe page number of the words so the group can discuss these words in context.

  14. Word Watcher SAMPLE QUESTIONS • Which words are used frequently? • Which words are used in unusual ways? • What words seem to have special meaning to the characters or author? • What new words do you find in this section? • What part of speech is this word? • What is the connotative meaning of this word? • What is the denotative meaning of thi word?

  15. Summarizer • Prepare a summary of the day's reading. You might ask yourself what details, characters, or events are so important that they would be included on an test. If it helps you to organize information, consider making a numbered list or timeline.

  16. Summarizer SAMPLE QUESTIONS What are the most important events in the section you read? What makes them so important? What effect to these events have on the plot or the other characters? What changes-in plot, character, or tone--did you notice when you read? What questions might appear on an exam about this section you read? What might be a good essay topic for this section of the story?
