Examining Standards
Sort the Reading Literature & Informational Text Standards
• Closed Sort: Resort the standards into two categories:
Reading Literature and Reading Informational
 Within each of the above categories, sort into clusters: Key
Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, Integration of
Knowledge and Ideas, Range of Reading and Text
Complexity
Discussion: What stood out to you after examining the
Reading Informational Standards?
How do the Reading Literature Standards support the
Reading Information Standards?
Essentials of Reading
Instruction
Informational Reading
• Malcolm Gladwell, in Outliers, reminds us that one of
our jobs is to teach students to work hard—that is
the key to extraordinary success. So here, you’ll
begin by showing students how to approach a text
in a serious, intellectual manner.

Examine A Text
As a Team:
• Read the selection
• Summarize the selection
• What is the text mainly about?
• What are the main ideas?
First Read
The GOAL of the first read is for students
to have a general understanding of what
the text is about
Planning For The First Read
Decide what information must be frontloaded
• If informational text is not connected to prior learning,
provide limited background information
Decide what vocabulary needs to be clarified
• Informational text will have academic vocabulary that
students should be allowed to struggle through
Decide how the text will be read
• Read Aloud, Whisper Read, Choral Read, Partner
Read, Independent Read
*This will depend on the complexity of the text and time of year and
grade level.
Before First Read of
Informational Text
Preview the text
• Notice the headings, captions and pictures
• What do you think this text is about?
Set a Purpose for Reading
• Establish why they are reading the text
• What will I learn?
Students share
• This text will be about……
• I think I will learn about….
Practicing the First Read
Read the entire selection
Frontload information if necessary
Stop only to define key vocabulary words that
cannot be defined in context and may interfere
with meaning
Students Annotate: What was confusing? What
do you wonder about?
Students Summarize the text
• This text is mainly about….
Students share
• I’m confused about _______ because…..
• I wonder about …….
Planning For The First Read
Determine the Central Ideas after reading the
Text
• Kids can make a difference and take a
stand
• Laws and beliefs are different around other
parts of the world
• All kids deserve an education
Examining the Standards
What standards seem to be most suited for this
text?
Planning For Close Reading
Chunk the text into Pivotal Passages
What sections merit a second read?
• Important and interesting sections or parts
• Sections that include different ideas or information
• Complex information; various structures within a paragraph
• Lengthy and substantial information
Planning For Close Reading
Determine Understanding to be Developed
What do we want students to understand after reading
this section of the text?
What idea is essential for them to understand?
Test your Understanding to be developed
 Does it capture the main idea?
 Can it be supported with details from the Pivotal Passage?
 Does is support the Central Idea/s?
Understanding To Be Developed
Taliban is an oppressive group but Malala stood up to them
Planning For Close Reading
Develop Text Based Questions
• Draft questions that will help students get to
the understanding that needs to be
developed
• Ensure questions lead students back to the
text and support discussion
Pivotal Passage #1
Understanding To Be Developed:
Taliban is an oppressive group but Malala stood up to
them
Text Based Questions
• What are we learning about the Taliban?
• What are we learning about Malala?
• Why does the author write “see Who are the
Taliban?”
• What details from the text does the author use
to support the idea that the Taliban is an
oppressive group?
• Why does the author include a map? How does
it relate to what we read?
Planning For Close Reading
Develop an Enduring Question
• Are questions students could think about
and discuss while reading the text that help
them uncover the Central Idea
• This is the last question asked after each
pivotal passage to build up to the
culminating question
Practicing Close Reading
Enduring Question
• What does the author want us to know?
Let’s Practice
With your table partner:
• Read the second pivotal passage
• Script the understanding that you want students to
develop after reading this section
• Share with your table and share out to the group
Planning for Close Reading
Determine Understanding to be Developed
What do we want students to understand after reading
this section of the text?
What idea is essential for them to understand?
Test your Understanding to be developed
 Does it capture an idea that can be supported in the
whole section?
 Does is support the Central Idea/s
Determine Understanding to be Developed for Pivotal
Passage #2
Malala perseveres though this tragedy and continues to spread
the message of equal rights
Let’s Practice Close Reading
Understanding to be Developed for Pivotal Passage #2
Malala perseveres though this tragedy and continues to
spread the message of equal rights
Text Based Questions for Pivotal Passage #2

• What happened as a result of her actions?
• What new information are we learning about the
Taliban?
• How does it connect to what we learned?
• What information does the photo and caption tell us?
• How does it add to our understanding?
• Why does Malala mean when she says,” Lets pick...?
• Why does the author include it at the end of the article?
Planning For Close Reading
Develop a culminating question for discussion
and constructed response
• This question will be asked to engage the class
in an extended discussion about the
Main/Central idea
• Students will also answer this question in writing
(constructed response)
Let’s Practice
• Culminating Question for discussion and
constructed response
The title of the article is Malala’s Dream why did the
author choose this title?
How to Answer a Constructed
Response Question
1. Read the question at least 2x
2. Start your sentence by answering the question
• What does the Author want reader’s to know about the Amazon
Frog?
• The author wants readers to know that Amazon Frogs are
dangerous predators.
3. Next add a few examples from the text to support your

about anything, it will even try eating animals that are bigger than
itself. The author also wrote that the tadpoles attack each other
and other tadpoles. Another idea the author wants readers to know
is that Amazon Frogs have horns that help them hide in the forest as
they wait for their prey.
