The question game for ages 3 and up.
After you read a book to your child or he/she reads it themselves ask questions like...
- Who was the story about?
- What do you know about them?
- Why did they....?
- How?
- When?
- Where?
- With What?
- What happened in the end?
- How did everyone feel?
This activity is great for language development, as well as checking for comprehension. Josh and I need to be more diligent about discussing books in this way. Especially now that he is reading them. It is easy to get caught up in the decoding of the words and forget about if he is actually "getting" the story!
