QUESTIONER
![Page 13: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)

CLARIFIER
![Page 15: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The CLARIFIER says:
To make words and ideas clear, the group may try a fix-it strategy:
• Reread• Look for little words inside big
words• Look for root words, prefixes or• suffixes• Look for commas, parentheses,
or• bold-face type• Think of a similar word• Substitute a word• Use a reference• Ask
What parts do we need to make clear?
![Page 16: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Sometimes to clarify, you need to look up a word.
![Page 17: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
DOES IT LOOK RIGHT? DOES IT SOUND RIGHT? DOES IT MAKE SENSE?
References like dictionaries, encyclopedias, and maps are useful to have on hand. Using other “fix it “ strategies help the group clear up any confusion about new words and ideas. Solving problems on your own within the group is a great teamwork tool.

SUMMARIZER
![Page 19: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
The SUMMARIZER says:
A group member may use a summary frame to say:
“Please state the most important facts or parts of this passage.”
SUMMARY FRAME:
This story/passage about _________ begins with _________, discusses (or develops) the idea that _________, and ends with _________.
![Page 20: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Connecting and Evaluating: Making Our Reading Real, Personal and Reflective
BEFORE/ DURING READING: Connector AFTER READING: EvaluatorHelps the group makes
judgmentsHelps the group plug in
links to other learning and joins parts together
![Page 21: The Super Six](https://reader033.vdocuments.site/reader033/viewer/2022061202/547b82a6b379594e2b8b4d8a/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
The CONNECTOR/ EVALUATER may say:
• “ How would you rate this idea/ these ideas? Why?
• “Do you agree or disagree with this idea/ these ideas ? Why or why not?”
This reminds me of
something we talked about in class…
EXPRESS YOURSELF! Opinions, thoughts,
and feelings
are okay!
