Practice Chunking

  • Write a word in the middle of a blank page. (We have suggested ‘Robben Island’ on the exercise page.)
  • You can chunk up by asking:
  1. What is it a part of?
  2. What is important about it?
  3. For what purpose?
  4. What is an example of it?
  5. What is important to me about it?
  • You can chunk down by asking:
  1. What is a part of this? How?
  2. What?
  3. When?
  4. What is an example of this?
