​What? Pair Share: Asking questions after a Read-Aloud is one way to see how much everyone has learned. Think of a question you can ask your neighbor about the Read-Aloud that starts with the word what. For example, you could ask, “What materials were used to build the Great Wall of China?” Turn to your neighbor and ask your what question. Listen to your neighbor’s response. Then your neighbor will ask a new what question, and you will get a chance to respond.
