Early Literacy 321 Practice Test

Retelling is describing the main points of what you read in your own words and in the order they happened. It focuses on the essential events, who was involved, the problem, and how it was resolved, showing you understood the story.

Visualizing would mean turning the text into mental pictures; predicting is guessing what might happen next; questioning is asking questions to explore meaning. Retelling sticks to what occurred in the text and communicates that understanding to someone else.
