Book Talk - Before Reading


Here are some questions you can ask your child about their reading; choose a few each night to engage in conversation with your child about their nightly independent reading.

Before reading:


  • Looking at the title, cover and illustrations/pictures, what do you think will happen in this book?
  • What makes you think that?
  • What characters do you think might be in the book?
  • Do you think there will be problem in the story? Why?
  • What do you already know about the topic of this book?
  • Does the topic or story relate to you or your family? How?
  • Do you think it will be like any other book you’ve read? If so, which one, and how do you think it will be similar?
