[strategies for stronger readers]

According to Mary Rogers Rose, strong readers demonstrate the following strategies:

"Before reading, effective readers:

• Set clear goals for reading.


• Actively pursue meaning and activate prior knowledge.
  
• Preview the text.
  
• Make predictions.
  
• Generate questions to be answered.
  

  During reading, effective readers:
  
  

• Pay close attention to text structure.
  
• Read texts selectively based on purpose(s) for reading.
  
• Construct and revise meaning.
  
• Determine whether the text and information are meeting goals.
  
• Integrate prior knowledge with information and ideas from text(s).
  
• Think about and question the text’s and author’s information and ideas.
  
• Monitor and revise understanding of the text.
  
• Determine the meaning of unfamiliar words and concepts using a variety of strategies.
  
• Reconcile inconsistencies or gaps in information and ideas as necessary.
  

  
  

  After reading effective readers:
  
  

• Evaluate text quality and value.
  
• Respond to text mainly through questioning, additional reading, or discussion.
  
• Reflect upon texts during reading, during pauses in reading, and after reading.
  
• Consider comprehension and learning to be satisfying and productive experiences."

I wonder how we can work these strategies into a reading of a new media fiction such as Inanimate Alice?
