SUMMARY:Close Reading Across the Disciplines
DESCRIPTION:Close reading is a powerful instructional approach that helps students engage deeply with complex texts\, develop critical thinking skills\, and support their ideas with evidence. In this interactive workshop\, participants will explore the what\, why\, when\, and how effective close reading instruction through research-based practices and live modeling. Through hands-on practice and disciplinary examples\, attendees will leave with a practical toolkit for planning and implementing close reading experiences that strengthen comprehension\, analysis\, and evidence-based thinking across content areas.  \nKey Learning Objectives:  \n\nUnderstand the purpose and essential components of close reading and how it supports comprehension\, critical thinking\, and evidence-based analysis. \n\n\nLearn how to select appropriate complex texts\, anticipate knowledge demands\, and plan scaffolds that maintain rigor while supporting student success. \n\n\nDevelop effective close reading lessons using text-dependent questions\, purposeful annotation strategies\, and formative assessment practices. \n\n\nApply close reading techniques across disciplines and leave with a toolkit of classroom-ready strategies to deepen student engagement and understanding of complex texts. \n\nDate: Monday\, Nov. 16; 4:30- 6:30 pm EST\nInstructor: Dana Carr-Ford\, MA\, MEd\nGrades:  3-8\nLocation: Virtual\nPrice: $120\nCredentials: 2 CTLE credits
