  1. QAR Strategies Question/Answer/Relationships

  2. Types of Questions • Right There • Read and Search • Author and Me • On My Own

  3. Types of Questions • Right There: This question uses the exact words from the text. The answers are found word for word in the text; usually in one sentence. • Example: Who was the president in 1996? • This answer would be found right in the text.

  4. Read and Search • This answer is in the text but the reader must search for it in two or more places. • Question: What two houses were blown down in the story the “Three Little Pigs”? • Answer: You would need to look in two places-the first house was the straw house and the second house made of sticks

  5. Author and Me • The answer might be found in the reader’s background knowledge but would not make sense without having read the text. • Question: Why did Marlin in “Finding Nemo” not want Dori to go find his son with him? • Answer: You would have to have seen Nemo to know that Dori was very forgetful, and then you would have to explain from your own perspective why she might not be a good travel companion

  6. On My Own • The answer is found in the reader’s head • Question: What would you do if you had to travel with someone who you did not get along with? • Answer: You did not have to read the story or watch this movie to be able to answer this question; it is usually your opinion

  7. Why QAR is Helpful: • Understanding the types of questions and identifying which type is being asked helps students find answers quickly and accurately.

  8. Info is found in one spot/paragraph in the text Usually a literal question-words come right from text KEY WORDS : Name… When did… How many… What is… When is… Who is… Where is… List… What kind of… RIGHT THERE QUESTIONS

  9. A topographic map is a map showing the surface features of an area. Topographic maps use symbols to portray the land as if you were looking down on it from above. Topographic maps provide highly accurate information on the elevation, relief and slope of the ground surface. Name three things that topographic maps provide information on. What is a topographic map? What special feature does a topographic map have to portray the land? Right There

  10. The answer is in two places in the text and reader must search for it Reader must understand what question is asking for Key Words: Find examples of… Why did… Summarize… Compare/Contrast… Explain… How did… What caused… Read and Search

  11. In 3100 B.C., Menes, a king of Upper Egypt, changed the course of Egyptian history. Memes swept into Lower Egypt and united the two kingdoms. From that time on, the kings of ancient Egypt wore a double crown. Menes built the city of Memphis for his capital. Memphis was located where the “stalk” of Upper Egypt meets the “blossom” of Lower Egypt. There Menes built a great palace. After that, Egypt’s supreme ruler was always called pharaoh, which means “great palace”. Find three examples of how Menes changed the course of Egyptian history. Read and Search

  12. Info is found by connecting what you already know with what you read in the text Reader must relate text to their knowledge Key Words: What would you do if… Suggest… Evaluate… What do you think about… How would this be different… Apply… What if… Prove… Author and Me

  13. The pharaohs had total power over the lives of their people. They made the laws that the people had to follow. Since the pharaohs owned all of Egypt’s land, the people had to pay rent and taxes. Farmers, for example, had to give three fifths of their crops and some of their livestock to the pharaohs in payment for using the land. They also had to spend a few months each year working on building projects ordered by the pharaohs. What would you do if you were a pharaoh during the ancient Egyptian civilization? Suggest two new laws that you would create for your empire. Author and Me

  14. The Homework Machine The Homework Machine, oh the Homework Machine. Most perfect contraption that’s ever been seen. Just put in your homework, then drop in a dime, snap on the switch, and in ten seconds’ time, your homework comes out, quick and clean as can be. Here it is- “nine plus four?’ and the answer is “three”. Three? Oh me… I guess it’s not as perfect as I though it would be. How do you think the homework machine could be changed to be more effective? Author and Me

  15. The answer is found in the reader’s background Reader does not need to have read the text to answer this question These answers are not found in a text, they are only found in your head On My Own

  16. On My Own • When is your birthday? • Have you ever seen a fossil? • What country would you visit if you could visit any country in the world?
