Close Reading is a process of careful, analytical reading. It involves repeated reading, text-based discussion, purposeful questioning, and written analysis of a complex text. In this workshop, participants will define the characteristics of close reading and purposeful questioning, experience, explore close reading examples in lessons, and have an opportunity to plan for an upcoming close reading lesson.
I plan high-quality 3-8 lessons for all research-based components of literacy instruction (Word Study, Writing, Vocabulary, Fluency, and Comprehension) that maintain high expectations for student performance.
