Literacy: reading for understanding

Reading for understanding is always more difficult than we think it is. That is why many of us are often disappointed with our comprehension marks. To do well, we need to read really thoroughly, making sure that we understand everything we have read. The questions on the board above, all about the Kraken on pages 2 and 3 of the Literacy World book, are very hard. Answers to all of the questions can be found on those two pages, but some are difficult to find. I have given example answers in blue.
