When reading a nonfiction book that relates to the fairy tale read in the basal reader, the teacher is disappointed because her first-graders are not asking questions or showing excitement about the material. What is an effective strategy the teacher can use to encourage more student engagement

Options available are:

A) Wait until the next day; maybe the children will be ready to discuss it later.

B) Pause periodically and ask the children to explain or "recap" what has happened thus far in the story and to ask questions about anything that is unclear.

C) Tell the children to listen carefully an+9d reread the story aloud very slowly to facilitate understanding.

D) Stop reading the story until students are more engaged in the text.

B) Pause periodically and ask the children to explain or "recap" what has happened thus far in the story and to ask questions about anything that is unclear.

Explanation:

The right answer is Option B due to the following reasons:

1. By pausing periodically, and ask the children to explain or "recap" what has happened thus far in the story, will encourage the children to be involved, by trying to impress the teacher that they are actively following the teacher or the story. With such strategy, those students will want to listen attentively to be get what the teacher is reading, and then narrate it when asked.

2. By letting them to ask questions about anything that is unclear, will not only give room to for students to get clarification about any ambiguity in the story, but also give room for interactions with the teacher, and opportunity to evaluate when and where they seem lost in the story.
