5. Asking and Answering Questions for Nonfiction Texts Task Cards
This low prep resource will help your students learn how to ask questions about a nonfiction text / informational text they have read. The more students practice asking their own questions about a text, the easier it will be for them to answer those questions and think critically about what they have read. Students are prompted to ask certain kinds of questions about the informational text they have read and then answer those questions.
