Outline of Responsibilities
Our job is to make up and ask questions about the selection that you are
reading. Make sure the questions get “big” answers. The idea
is to make up the kinds of questions that will make the other students
in your group think carefully about they read and to feel that they are
part of the story. Some possible questions are:
- Which part of the story brought out the strongest feelings?
- Was there anything in this part of the story that bothered or surprised you?
- If you could talk to the main character, what would you tell him or her to do?
- Do you agree with the main character’s actions? Why or why not?
- What do you think will happen in the next part of the story?
