AFTER READING
Guided Questions and Think Alouds
Ask children, Do you think that the butterfly is going to be hungry soon?
What kinds of food do you think it is going to eat? (Children will infer what
they think the character is going to do.
Ask children, Think about what you thought was going to happen in the
story. Is that what happened? Were your predictions right? (Children will
confirm predictions)
Children will confirm predictions.
Closure: Turn to your neighbor and tell them what kinds of food the
caterpillar ate throughout the story. Then, your neighbor will tell you how
the caterpillar felt after eating those foods, and what happened at the end
of the story.
Assessment: Formative or Summative
Formative Assessment (process): By listening to student responses
throughout the read aloud, we can assess how much students are gaining
comprehension of the story.
Formative Assessment (product): Students will use puppets to retell
the story in order from beginning to end using new vocabulary words.
Formative Assessment (product): Students will be given pictures or
cut-outs of objects that are in the story, and will have to put them in order
based on what happened in the story. (pictures could include: fruit, junk
food, big caterpillar, cocoon, butterfly)
Rubric/Checklist:
Children are able to retell the story in order from beginning to end
independently, with support, not at all
Children are able to place objects in the correct sequence independently,
with support, not at all
Differentiation: Content, Process, or Product
Product: Children who need support to retell the story using puppets will
require more prompting of ideas from the teacher.
Children who need support to place the objects in the correct order will be
given less cut-outs.
