Reading Comprehension – Head Questions

Posted by Adrian on Oct-22-08

Head Comprehension Strategies

Three level guides (also known as the ‘Here, Hidden, Head’ reading comprehension strategy) are a huge part of my group reading sessions with students.

I’ve had the ‘here’ questions stems available on my website for a while now and recently I’ve had a few emails requesting the ‘head’ stems. So here they are! I’ve just uploaded a collection of thinking stems that focus on character.

The question stems are now available for download as a Word or Acrobat file over on my site.

cheers

    These comprehension questions are FANTASTIC!! It is so great to have them all in one place and I can see many uses for them. Many, many thanks for all your great work. It is truly appreciated by teachers trying hard to help children “get meaning from print”. Again Thanks maureen Sheehy

  2. Adrian Said,

    My pleasure Maureen. I have a few more of these in the planning so pop back from time to time to see how I’m going with them.

    Oh and thanks for the positive feedback. It is great to know that there are people out there using my work.

    cheers

    THANK YOU Adrian, for all your great resouces. I run a small reading clinic for LD kids, and find your games invaluable.

    When I next visit Australia would it be possible to visit (volunteer) in your class for a week or so?? a day? a month? and I will shout you SEVERAL beers!

    I have recommended your site to many. Again, many thanks.

    Thank you Adrian! Wow – what an amazing gift to education you are! Thank you for your amazing ideas and resources – but mostly thank you for your generosity. I will be recommending your site to all teachers! (and so far I’ve only looked through the reading section – I can feel a late night coming on!!) :-)

    Hi Adrian

    Your Here, Head, Hidden strategy and resources are fantastic. I have recommended these strategies to our teachers who are currently focussing on Reading across the school. Thanks. Jane
