Debbie Miller uses what she calls anchor charts throughout each unit of comprehension (strategies) They anchor kids thinking to the mentor text the teacher might be doing as a read aloud or as shared reading ...and they also serve the same purpose for kids during their self-selected reading. As the children learn more and more about the strategy and how it serves them as good readers, they continue to add on to these three or four generic questions .....For example in the questioning strand, Debbie uses the following: What do we know about asking questions? How does asking questions help the reader? How do readers figure out the answers to their questions?
