Who wants to be the next Millionaire?


What do you know about the game show, Who Wants to be a
Millionaire? Why does the value of each question go up as you proceed through the game? What are the life lines for? Why do you think the contestant talks
about their thought process?

Game shows are fun, exciting, challenging,
suspenseful. You could pretend you are on a game show every time you read.
Create that same type of atmosphere and create questions. Reward yourself if
you are able to answer the question.

Before reading: You create a question to determine the purpose for reading.

  • Preview the text and ask, "I wonder..."
  • Ask, "What text structure is being used?"
  • Turn the heading into a question that matches the text structure.
  • Remind your mind, "I am motivated, interested and curious about the text."

During reading: You can use your life lines to clarify the author's message.

  • Look for clues in the text.
  • Look for clues in your mind.
  • Look for clues from another source.

After reading: You can monitor your comprehension success.

  • Ask yourself, "What did I learn?"
  • What concepts do you need more information?

Remember, the more you read, the more you
know. The more you know, the more money you will make. Who wants to be the next
Millionaire?

    Basically this all makes sense. You can always learn something new when you read, even if you dont notice. The more you know, the more people will take interest in you when it comes to supply and demand.

    While reading pretend you're in a game show to motivate yourself to read and answer some question about what you read, and in no time you will be a Millionaire.

    If more people treated reading and answering the questions as the end of a chapter like a game show they would be more likely to remember what they just read. Not only because it makes it more fun, but they what to be prepared for the questions at the end.

    Read for the win! Read to remember! So then when your on a gameshow, you dont say that a surge protector is used to protect from water flow

    To make reading more fun think of it as a game show. Games shows are exciting so reading could be that way too.

    If You Read, Ask Constant Questions As You Go Through The Chapter. Its The Same As Getting Up in a Level on A Game Show!

    ... i could never quite understand why i loved things that have suspense and q&a, but i guess it helps me think and engage my mind, so i guess while i am reading i will use trivia and ask questions and make it interesting, so..reading is the key to becoming a millionaire, thats how you truly learn and get answers.

    If you like game shows because they are fun and exciting, try to answer questions from what you read to a fun exciting way.
