Description: | Select Guide Rating In this book the authors debunk the myth that Text Dependent Questions are all level 1 who, what, when where, how questions and instead offer readers a purposeful and thoughtful instructional routine that includes four levels of questioning as well as a focus on talk and collaboration every step of the way. Fisher & Frey’s answer to close and critical reading
The cool thing? These questions ignite students’ engagement and discussion because they strategically lead students to a place of understanding where explicit and implied meanings and interpretations can be debated. Far from being overly literal or teacher-led, the questioning framework Fisher and Frey advance enhances the quality of student talk and idea-generation. All in all, there’s no better resource to cultivate students’ capacity for independent reading and incisive thinking. Longtime collaborators and recipients of numerous teaching and leadership awards, DOUGLAS FISHER and NANCY FREY are Professors of Educational Leadership at San Diego State University as well as teacher leaders at Health Sciences High & Middle College. |
