Scholastic has whole series of nonfiction question and answer books. The heading is a question and the answer follows. I have found it effective to use these and then work with other nonfiction. After reading a paragraph (or page) or two, I ask kids, "So, if this were a question and answer book, what would the question be?" I think formulating questions is an important skill.
