Reciprocal reading

We used reciprocal reading to help us read the maori pioneer battalion.

First we had a leader. The leader would pick people to do roles like the predictor, and would make sure everyone is listening to the person talking.

Next the predictor has to predict what the text is about. The predictor also has to ask questions like: Does anyone else have any predictons?

After the predictor, the clarifier has to identify tricky words. The clarifier can also ask questions like: Does anyone else have something to clarify?

Then the questioner has to answer questions like: What's your evidence, Why do you think that and does anyone else have any questions?

Finally The summariser haas to summarise what happened in the text. The summariser also has to ask questions like: Did I miss anything important?

My favorite role was the questioner because I always ask questions.
