When I looked at this activity, I got insanely frustrated. I guess
I was hoping for some sort of clue about one of the words like the author gave
for the similar passage (a blonke is a horse).
I reread the passage several times, and I still came away with nothing.
So, I answered the questions the best I could, by looking for the key words in
the questions and finding the responses in the passage. This reminds me of a
test taking strategy that I taught to a student whom I tutored who was not
“mastering” reading comprehension passage quizzes. Unfortunately, I still
struggled with some hidden definition of corandic as well as the other nonsense
words in the passage for more than 20 minutes, started crying, and was told by
my husband that I had done the activity correctly.
Therefore, I was able to answer the questions using some sort of
context clues, but I was not able to determine any meaning from the passage to
answer the questions using words that made sense. My experience was
challenging, and I can’t imagine how frustrating that would feel for a young
beginning or struggling reader.
