Reading Comprehension Puppets

These four puppets help us learn "good reader" strategies.
Sammy helps us tell what happened in the story. Quincy helps us to ask questions throughout the story. Paula helps us predict what will happen in the story. Clara helps us with words that we don't understand. The first graders LOVE when these puppets come out to work with us! Just ask them!!!!!

The puppets were created by Lori D. Oczkus. She is the author of Reciprocal Teaching at Work:Strategies for Improving Reading Comprehension. Check out the International Reading Association website at www.reading.org.
