Strategies for Complicated Chapter Books

 As children progress through more complicated chapter books, there are some basic strategies that can help them fluently read for meaning.

• Children should develop an understanding that they can use texts as references.
• Children should begin to search for and find information in texts.
• Children need to read critically, making judgments about what is happening.
• Children should develop an understanding of the subtleties of plot and humor.
