Read a short story, poem, or play closely: work out new words, find feeling and sense words, repeated lines, and rhymes, tell literal from nonliteral phrases, name the parts (poem, chapter, scene), and tell who is telling the story and how each character, and the reader, sees it.

How to use this sheet
- Read the story aloud first with expression, so the child can hear the rhymes, the repeated lines, or the change of voice between characters.
- For a word question, have the child cover the word, reread the sentence, and say what word could fit in its place.
- With a play, read it together in parts, each person taking one character, and skip the words in parentheses aloud.
- For a narrator question, ask the child to point to the words I, me, or my before deciding who is telling the story.
Common mistakes
- Taking a phrase such as "rained cats and dogs" literally. Ask what really happened in the story, and what the phrase makes you picture.
- Thinking the author is always the narrator. A story told with I is told by a character, not by the person who wrote it.
- Seeing chapters or scenes as separate stories. Ask what happens in one part that matters in the next.
