  1. What good readers do….. Before reading, a careful reader might ask: Why am I reading this selection? For entertainment or information. What does the selection seem to be about? Is it about someone or something I already know, is it something new, is it something I want to know more about? Will I read about characters? Will I read about how to do something?

  6. InferenceAuthors don’t tell the reader everything about the characters and situations in their stories. Part of the fun of reading is that you have to think about the selection. You have to use your good sense and your own knowledge to figure some things out. This is called making inferences.http://www.laflemm.com/RfT/RfTPractice1.htmlhttp://www.laflemm.com/RfT/RfTPractice4.html
