CCSS: Text Dependent Questions Session
Target Audience:
ELA /Literacy educators and administrators
Abstract:
The Common Core State Standards place a strong focus on students gathering evidence, knowledge, and insight from text.
In order for students to undergo this kind of close reading of text, the types of questions asked of them must be dependent on the text under consideration and not depend on information from outside sources.
This session will enable participants to understand the reasoning behind the Common Core State Standards’ shift to encourage students to focus on the text more deeply.
Participants will work with text exemplars in order to understand the process of developing a set of coherent, text-specific questions that promote a deep understanding of the author’s words.
It is required that participants bring a short text with accompanying questions to this session so that they may work with groups of colleagues to revise and create new text-dependent questions.
