Questioning as you recall is the ability to:

A.  Understand what is on the page.

B.  Be able to find answers

C.  Be able to solve problems

D.  Discover new information

 

 Looking back at the text you have previewed what sort of questions do you have about the text?  You can ask yourself the following:

A.  What do the vocabulary words mean?

B.  What will I need to know in order to solve these problems?

C.  What is the best ways to solve these problems (e.g. using diagrams, making models, using charts or graphs)?

D.  Will any type of graphic organizer help me make the information easier to understand?

E.  How will this help me in real life?

 

 Asking yourself the following questions will help you gain a better sense of the lesson that will be taught. 

 

 During the lesson making sure that you understand what is being taught is also key.  Making notes next to the step of the problem where you are getting confused not only helps you to see where you are having trouble but will also help the teacher in helping you understanding the lesson. 

 

 Many of the questions you may have might be answered from the following ways:

A.  Reading the text carefully for tips on how to solve the upcoming problems.

B.  You may already know how to solve some of the problems from your own experiences.

C.  Looking at the sample problems and steps taken to get the answer.

D.  Listening to the whole/small group conversation.

E.  Using other resources available.
