Today during reading we focused on asking questions while we read. We discussed asking questions before, during, and after reading. To help up with questioning I read the story titled Mustache by Mac Barnett. I pre-read the story and loaded it up with my own questions on stick notes. As I read I asked my questions and we discussed possible answers. We talked about how asking questions while we read will help us have a better understanding of the story. We made a poster of possible question starters and then each kiddo wrote their question on a mustache. They LOVED it! Here are some pictures and sample questions from the book. I also linked a YouTube reading of the book if you want to read it too! :) Enjoy!

What made the king such a terribly king?
I wonder why they didn't move?
Why did the townspeople go silent?
Will the king ever fix the town?
What does culprit mean?
Why did he royal adviser have to wear a disguise?
Why did they all draw mustaches on the posters?
How did the king feel at the beginning and at the end?
