Check understanding
- Answer 'who', 'what', 'where' questions about a text using evidence
- Infer a character's feelings from their actions (e.g. 'She's sad because she's crying')
- Make logical guesses about unstated information using text clues
“While reading a story, can your child answer questions like "Why did the character do that?" or "How do you think they felt?" — using clues from the text rather than just guessing?”
