With Common Core, students should be able to answer and ASK questions about a text.  One way I love to teach comprehension in my class is by teaching the kids how to generate their own questions about the text. I tell them that I will choose the 10 best questions and turn it into their reading quiz for that week. They love it because they feel like the teacher. Little do they know that they are reading more closely than ever when trying to create questions.
