Are these kind of questions applied before...during...or after reading?

Once the supporting ideas are analyzed and the essential details are related...
Once the supporting ideas are analyzed and the essential details are related, write the main idea in your own words.
How many Main Idea Techniques have we explored during the previous semesters?
Can you explain at least two?
1st Cycle: "Topic + what it is said about the topic"
2nd Cycle: Identifying the different elements (topic, main idea, supportive ideas, supportive details) by asking questions. (+ mind map).
3rd Cycle: Identify the topic, make a summary (12 words per paragraph).
4th Cycle: Identify the topic, add 2 essential details (+ outline)
The ability to analyze word parts also helps when you are faced with unknown vocabulary.
What are Affixes (prefixes and suffixes)
Etymologically, the word infer means...
What is to "carry forward".
What questions should we use to monitor my comprehension?
Can I relate the information easily? / ¿Puedo relacionar la información fácilmente?
What concepts do I need to clarify? / ¿Que conceptos necesito clarificar?
What have I learned from the text? / ¿Que he aprendido de este texto?
Why it is beneficial to design an "outline" at identifying the main idea of a text?
What is...
