Engaging Scenario: You are a neophyte book critic who has been invited to present a simple analysis
of a novel seven days from today. It is a novel you have not read before. To make the task lighter, you
have decided to use some of the strategies you have learned for prereading or planning (Word Splash,
Probable Passage, Book Feature Walk, and Anticipation Guide), while reading or monitoring (Marking-
Up Strategy, Question Creation Chart, and Story Map), and postreading or evaluating (Compose the
Test, Add-on Information, Summarizing and 3-2-1), among others. Document the strategies you have
used to process the chosen reading material.
Divide the class into groups of seven. Ask the students to discuss with their group the documented
strategies used. Ask them to present their analysis guided by a story map in plenary. Tell them to
include their opinions using the following:
1. What is your favorite part of the novel? Why?
2. Did any part make you laugh or cry? Why?
3. What lesson did you learn from it? How is this lesson useful in your life?
4. Would you recommend this novel to anyone? Why?
5. How many stars would you give this novel?
