7 Thinking Strategies

The 7 Thinking/Comprehension strategies are: Asking Questions, Inferring, Monitoring for Meaning, Schema, Determining Importance, Creating Sensory Images, and Synthesizing

(Note: In the literature, you will sometimes see 8 thinking strategies instead of 7, depending on whether “Monitoring for Meaning” and “Problem Solving” are listed separately or grouped together as one strategy.)
