Reading is Thinking
When reading we think within the text (think of it as everything we do to propel ourselves forward)
We read the words and put together information so that we understand the facts or follow a story.
We reading we think beyond the text (think of it as bringing our own thinking to the reading)
Reading can stimulate memories, what we already know, and predictions about what will happen, why
the characters act the way they do, and ideas that the writer many have implied.
We reading we think about the text (think of it as considering the text as an object)
We might notice the story starts in a surprising way or we might be critical of its ending. We make
decisions about whether or not we like the text, whether we think it is true, or if it would interest
others. We reflect on the turning points.
We are thinking analytically and reading critically.
