• Ask learners to read the text out loud; you can do so as a class, in small groups, or with partners
• Require kids to underline the places in the text where they found the answers to the questions
• Set up centers in your class and include this as one of the exercises; learners can practice the same concepts in different ways at the other stations
• Assign this for homework or as a starter

Pros

Cons
