What makes a good question? Middle schoolers explore the use of questioning through QAR, the question answer response strategy, while reading Where the Red Fern Grows. They learn about the four types of questions: right there, think and search, on your own, and author and you. The lesson plan also has the class collaboratively discuss and share answers—a great strategy for all types of text!
