Creating Responsive, Responsible & Compassionate Readers

1. Responsive readers:

   • Alert to what the text says
     • Alert to their own responses
       • Alert to the responses of others
         • "If the reader isn't responsive, if he doesn't let the text awaken emotion or inspire thought, then he can be said to garely be reading at all"
           • Simply reading to answer a test question is not reading
             • Readers are more engaged if thr selection excites or interests them
               • Readers need to learn to and be comfortable asking questions about what they read
                 • Responsible Readers are:
                   • responsible for heir own thoughts
                     • responsible for their own ideas
                       • willing to ask additional questions
                         • Questions good readers ask about what they read
                           • How does it look?
                             • What is it saying?
                               • How does it make me feel?
                           • Young readers need to learn to develop compassion
                             • Can they see the point of view of others?
                               • Can they value others' feelings?
                                 • They understand that others do not always see the same passage the way they do
