Close Reading…Learning with Stephanie Harvey

Hi Students,

As I promised, I’d share information from teacher training with you!  The upper elementary teachers are working with Stephanie Harvey and talking about close reading.  Being able to look closely at text or infographics…Here’s a photo of training…

Now, here is an “info-graphic” from a feature article the teacher’s looked at.  After looking closely at it, share what you learned, what you would still need to learn, and what you’d like to learn about because of this.

Infographic Feature

Look at the text from this same article…capture it with your ipad and do annotations.

Look through this whole post, you have multiple steps to complete, think about, do, and share…what are your thoughts about Close Reading? (Post your comment on this question)  You should focus on what you know, use the new learning you now have from the infographic and text, use the questions that popped into your head, now what?  Be thoughtful, revise and edit before you comment.  We’ll be talking about this in class on Monday, but wanted to allow you the opportunity to “dive in!”
