Use "thinking aloud" strategies to model analytic processes. Consider the following: What happens in your mind as you read for information? What questions are you asking? What thoughts are you entertaining? When do you reread? When do you pause and think? From what previous knowledge are you drawing as you make conclusions? What words must you stop and define in order to understand crucial information? Share this information with your students as you read a passage aloud. If resources permit, transform reading into a "hands-on" process by copying the passage to a transparency and mark your interactions with the text in the margins of the transparency. Adapt this idea for your students by encouraging them to attach sticky notes appropriately as they experience questions, ideas, or epiphanies with the text.
