Students will be guided through the provided text to improve their close reading skills. I will show them first how they use their reasoning to pull details from the text. Then they will do the work step by step, with me closing guiding. Then they will be paired with another class member to assess how they are understanding and for reinforcement if I see it as necessary. In addition, I go into regaining and maintaining focus when reading and rereading. Your student will also go into how to effectively construct a response.
Learning Goals
This is an introduction to a series. The students will strengthen their close reading skills, learning how to read and re-read to pull the needed details from each text they read. This skill is a bedrock for their education and state testing process.

Teacher expertise and credentials
I am offering this class because I have seen the need for it in the classroom. Students stress over state testing and day to day work when struggling with getting the deeper meaning of the text. I was able to improve my students' scores regardless of skill level, gifted to challenged. Reviews
