Now What? • What do you want students to do with the information they have read? • How will they hold their thinking so they can return to it later? • Will you have them write a paper, have a discussion or create a project?

Setting Purpose for Reading • Be selective about what kids read • Only the best parts • Be specific about your instructional purpose • Give students a lens for reading • Decide how your students will use what they are reading • Explain how the information will be used
