Description: | Select Guide Rating This book scaffolds teachers as they learn to develop effective text dependent questions across ELA, science, and social studies/history with the goal of assisting students to read closely and comprehend deeply. 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. |
