Assignment#5 - Questioning (Simple vs Deep)

As discussed in class, we are focusing on 2 different types of questions.


1.) Simple Questions - These are questions that can be answered very quickly, simply by reading a chapter or line of text.

Eg. Question: What did Cole receive from Garvey?
Answer: Cole received a special blanket, called an, "Atoow!"

2.) Deep Questions - These are questions that cannot be answered simply by reading a chapter and looking for the answer.  These types of questions require deep thought and usually require INFERENCING skills to answer them.  As review, INFERENCING is the process of drawing a conclusion based on what you already know.

Eg. Why do you think Cole behaves so poorly?
What do you think the atoow represents and why?
Do you think Cole will recover from being mauled by the bear?

Your assignment today, is to write out 2 simple questions and 2 deep questions based on what we read in class today.  (If you were away today, base it on previous readings).  Remember to use some of the phrases that we went over in class today.

INSTRUCTIONS:
1.) Write in your LA notebook, your 4 different questions.  
2.) Edit your work in a red pen.
3.) Blog all your questions in a neat, organized, and easy to read manner.

    Simple questions that I had were what animal did he see again? and, what creatures did he see and got all mad?

    Also, the Deep questions are why did Cole say "Are you ok?" to the darkened branches? and, why did Cole hated those birds?

    One simple question I have is,” Why is Cole all bloody and hurt?" Another simple question I have is," What animal attacked Cole?"

    One deep question I have is," Why does Cole have a deep hatred towards the birds?" Another deep question I have is," Will Cole survive his injures?"

    The simple quetstions that I am going to present are, What type of animals were in the tree, and Why is Cole wounded and how did Cole get wounded.

    The deep questions That I am going to present are, I am wondering why Cole said "are you alright" into the unlighted woods, and, is Cole going to live after how the spiritual bear blemished him so badly.
