This practical K12 teacher resource explains the whats, whys, and how-tos of using Questioning the Author (Qt A), a powerful approach for enhancing reading comprehension and engagement. Thorough yet concise, the book shows how to plan lessons using both narrative and expository texts, formulate open-ended Queries, and guide class discussions around them. The authors discuss how Qt A has evolved over many years of classroom application and include innovative ideas for integrating vocabulary instruction and writing prompts into Qt A lessons. Also provided are steps for gradually transitioning from teacher-led instruction to independent reading. The book features extended examples of teachers implementing Qt A, as well as four complete texts that can be downloaded and printed for classroom use.
