Activity #2

Reading Strategy - Questioning?

***Get out a Pink, blue, yellow, and green highlighter***

Good readers are actively thinking as they read. Questioning is one strategy we can use to think about a text. Below is one way to categorize questions. 

It is called: The Depth of Knowledge, or D. O. K.

The deeper you can go with your thinking the better you will be able to truly understand a text. The depth of knowledge has 4 levels. 

Level 1 - Has only 1 correct answer, and the answer can be found in the book.

Ex: What is Freak's mom's name?

Ex: What does Max get out of the tree for Kevin?

Level 2 - Has an infinite number of answers, and it puts you in the book. It asks you what you think the characters should do, think, feel, etc. or what you would do, think, feel. etc. 

Ex: What do you think Max & Kevin should have done when they had their run-in with Tony D. and his gang? 

Ex: How would you react to Tony D.

Ex: If you were Max, how would you feel about being in an "LD class"

Ex: I wonder if we will ever find out why Max's dad is in prison.

In a level two question we are talking about the book, it's characters, setting, plot, etc, and putting ourselves in the book

Level 3 - Has an infinite number of answers, and it pulls something that happens in the book and asks you to apply it to your own life?

Ex: Have you ever had an encounter with a bully? If so, how did you handle it?

Ex: When was the first time you got to go somewhere alone with just a friend, and no parents to watch you? Where was it, and how did it go?

Ex: 

In a level 3 question we are no longer talking about the book or the characters. We leave the book behind and talk about situations from our own lives, that are similar to those in the book?

Level 4 - Require research & additional resources to dig deep into a question. 

Ex: Can you identify the name of the disease Kevin has, along with describing the symptoms, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment?

Ex: How is Kevin from Freak the Mighty similar to Wahoo from the book Chomp?

Ex: How does bullying affect typical American children?

****Small Group Practice****

With the members of your group you will try to write a level 1, 2, & 3 question about the events from chapters 1 - 3.

We will then take turns asking and answering each groups questions.
