Strategy #1Reading the Passage
![Page 11: PREPARATION IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS ON THE PSSA GRADES 3-5 PART 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813ad6550346895da313db/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Reading the Passage Strategy[Relax, strategy is just a fancy word for “a plan”.]
WHAT AM I GOING TO DO?You will be asked to read a “passage”. This is a short story or a short part of a longer story.
WHAT DO I DO NEXT?You are going to be asked questions about the passage. You
should look over the questions first then read the passage in search of
the answers.
WHEN DO I DO IT?You have about an hour to read the questions, search for the answers and respond. You have plenty of time to finish. Don’t
forget that the questions come after the passage.
![Page 12: PREPARATION IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS ON THE PSSA GRADES 3-5 PART 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813ad6550346895da313db/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Most of the passages will have a clear beginning, middle, and end.
You will see the following patterns: THE BEGINNINGAnswers about when and where the story takes place are oftenfound at the beginning.
THE MIDDLEAnswers about a problem in the story are usually found in the middle.
THE ENDAnswers about how the problem was resolved are normally found
atthe end.
Knowing where to look will save you time!

Strategy #2Labeling Paragraphs
![Page 14: PREPARATION IS THE KEY TO SUCCESS ON THE PSSA GRADES 3-5 PART 1](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062517/56813ad6550346895da313db/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
When you finish reading a paragraph, ask yourself, “What did I just read?”
Then write a few descriptive words next to the paragraph. These paragraph labels will help to guide you back to important parts of the passage when you answer a question.
Here’s how you do it.1. After you read each paragraph, write two or three words that
describe what the paragraph is about.
2. When you have finished reading, use your paragraph labels to help you figure out the main idea of the passage. Ask yourself,
• “What?” What is the passage about?
• “So What?” What’s the author's point about this topic? What is he or she trying to tell me?
3. Based on your labels write a sentence what the passage is about.
