What Is Close Reading?
Close Reading is a central focus of the Common Core
State Standards(CCSS). It requires students to get truly
involved with the text they are reading. The purpose is to
teach them to notice features and language used by the
author. Students will be required to think thoroughly and
methodically about the details in a text. Below you will find
a great youtube video on Close Reading!!

I have been working on creating leveled Close Reading passages to help support my kiddos
in developing Close Reading strategies. These passages are aligned to the Common Core
and have 5 passages per standard. There are three pages of Common Core aligned
graphic organizers and text-dependent questions for each passage, which provides
excellent opportunities for "digging deeper" into the text. Check out my close reading
passages by clicking on the images below!!
