Shared InquiryThe Old Man of the Sea by Maeve Brennan
Session 1 Pre-reading What is the difference between
compassion and pity? Use an instance to define the two terms.
Compassion and Pity Having compassion means you have
EMPATHY for another person. You are Identifying With another person’s situation and sharing a common feeling!
Having PITY for someone means you feel sorry for them. You may look down on them and you may try to be nice to them, but it’s because you feel sorry for them.
Focus on the following concepts Idea—Generating and clarifying ideas
about a selection’s meaning Evidence—Supporting and checking
ideas, based on what is in the text Response—Listening to and considering
the ideas of others
Session 1 First Reading Listen as the text is read aloud, marking
places where you have questions. Use a question mark (?) to denote your
questions. Write your questions in the margins or on a separate sheet of paper!
Use an exclamation point (!) to denote important passages.
Session 1—Recording Questions All questions will be recorded on the
board. Identify any vocabulary questions. In small groups, label questions
according to type.
Question Types If the question has… One correct answer that comes from the
text it is a FACTUAL question. One reasonable answer that comes from
sources outside the text such as encyclopedias it is a BACKGROUND question.
Reasonable answers based on imagination or guessing it is a SPECULATIVE question.
Two (or more) reasonable answers supported by evidence from the text it is an INTERPRETIVE question.
How can you test a question and determine its type?
