Teach Close Reading Like A Pro!: A Collection Of Lessons & Strategies

Teach Close Reading Like a Pro! provides elementary school teachers a multi-step instructional routine to implement close reading practically in the classroom. The instructional routine fosters all four of the language arts domains - reading, writing, listening and speaking. There are more than 70 sample lessons and strategies to implement close reading in the classroom with ease. Building on more than twenty years of educating elementary students, Pamela Robertson, co-author of the workbook, Scaffolding Close Reading in Elementary Classroom: A Practical Approach, brings close reading to life with some practical, classroom-tested lessons and strategies structured to give teachers a springboard for implementing the common core standards. This book is designed to help your students to: - get the gist by previewing the text; - annotate the text; - ask questions of the text; - dialogue and debate with a small group; - summarize and synthesize the text; - analyze the text using nine lenses to support the theme and the author's central message; - examine biases; - critically analyze a text in writing. This book will give teachers a practical resource to teach close reading like a pro!
