Alana, Determining iif a child is comprehending depends on the question you've posed or the response they have initiated. If I am wanting to see how the reader makes his/her own meaning I am after higher level questions such as those that require inferencing -which can be anything from predicting to determining an author's purpose.
I agree with Bonita that asking for evidence ofr thinking/comprehension is an integral piece to my understanding of a child'sr comprehension skills and strategies. Not sure if that is what you were truly wondering about. If not don't hesitate to ask some more.
