SORT THE FOLLOWING ITEMS. WHICH ITEMS
WOULD YOU CONSIDER TO BE A TEXT?

Raises engagement and joy
Leads to student independence (not dependence)

THE PLC CYCLE AND CLOSE READING
DIFFERENTIATE!!WHOLE CLASS INSTRUCTION
CLOSE READING
What does the text say?
How does the text say it?
What does the text mean?
Falling in Love with Close Reading by Christopher Lehman & Kate Roberts
LET’S PRACTICE!!!
What does the text say?
Literal Reading
What do you see, read, or take away from the text on a literal level?
CLOSE READING LENS # 1
Falling in Love with Close Reading by Christopher Lehman & Kate Roberts
How does the text say it?
STRUCTURE
TEXT FEATURES
POINT OF VIEW
DIALOGUE
CONTEXT CLUES/WORDS/IMAGES… MEANINGS
CLOSE READING LENS # 2
Falling in Love with Close Reading by Christopher Lehman & Kate Roberts
What does it mean? INFERENTIAL
How does it connect to other texts or the
world at large? EVALUATION and SYNTHESIS
Meaning of words and illustrations towards
bigger picture/learning goal/essential question
Evaluate
Analyze
Compare/contrast elements within this text or
other texts

The text (passage, graph, article, picture, YOUTUBE
video, etc.) should be carefully chosen by the teacher.
The teacher should ponder how this text can/will lead to
an overarching connection with other texts or themes.
The text should be short.
If it has a staple it’s too long!
The text should be worthy of students’ time and should
not focus on minor points.
A Close Read should not be used as an everyday reading
strategy for basic comprehension. It is specifically used
for grasping the deeper meaning of an important text.

Let’s Practice Again!!!
PRODUCT LIFE CYCLE
1. Based on the graph above, do profit and sales mirror each other throughout
the Product Life Cycle?
2. How does the graph communicate this information?
3. Why does profit decrease so much in the introduction stage?
THE DIAGRAM BELOW SHOWS THE POSITION OF 3 SOCCER
PLAYERS WHO ARE KICKING THE BALL TO ONE ANOTHER.
WHICH PLAYER KICKED THE BALL THE SECOND FURTHEST?
1. What does the diagram say?
2. How does the diagram communicate the
position of the players?
3. What equation would you use to solve this?
Why? (Use evidence from the diagram)
How would you find the solution?
The three lens questions used in a Close
Read are text-dependent questions that
teachers prepare to facilitate a close
reading.
CLOSE READING WITH TEXT-DEPENDENT
QUESTIONS
TEXT-DEPENDENT QUESTIONS…
Can only be answered with evidence from the text.
Can be literal (checking for understanding) but must
also involve analysis, synthesis, and evaluation.
Focus on words, sentences, and paragraphs, as well
as larger ideas, themes, or events.
Focus on difficult portions of text in order to enhance
reading proficiency.
Can also include prompts for writing and discussion
questions.
CREATING TEXT-DEPENDENT QUESTIONS
Identify the core understandings and key ideas of the
text.
Start small to build confidence.
Target vocabulary and text structure.
Create coherent sequences of text-dependent
questions.
Identify the standards that are being addressed
Create the culminating assessment.
TEXT DEPENDENT QUESTIONS ARE NOT…
Low-level, literal, or recall questions
Focused on comprehension strategies
Just questions
Look at the sample from
your discipline. Evaluate
how this could be used in
your classroom. Share your
thoughts at your table.
Think of one piece of text
that you could use a close
reading on in the next unit.
What additional support
would you need in order to
implement a close read in
your next unit?
