Retell/Summarize
Good readers retell text effectively by: identifying key facts with
important details, using vocabulary from the text, making connections,
and restating the information in an order that makes sense.
Good readers use a number of thinking skills to summarize text.
They combine meanings, delete unimportant details, condense
key messages and incorporate their schema (prior knowledge) to
create a succinct summary of text.
Encourage your child to think:
• What happened first, next, finally?
• What key information did the author provide?
• What did I learn from the text?
