Notice and Note: Strategies for Close Reading

Synopsis

In Notice and NoteKylene Beers and Bob Probst introduce 6 "signposts" that alert readers to significant moments in a work of literature and encourage students to read closely. Learning first to spot these signposts and then to question them, enables readers to explore the text, any text, finding evidence to support their interpretations. In short, these close reading strategies will help your students to notice and note.

In this timely and practical guide Kylene and Bob:

• examine the new emphasis on text-dependent questions, rigor, text complexity, and what it means to be literate in the 21st century

• identify 6 signposts that help readers understand and respond to character development, conflict, point of view, and theme

• provide 6 text-dependent anchor questions that • help readers take note and read more closely

• offer 6 Notice and Note model lessons, including text selections and teaching tools, that help you introduce each signpost to your students

Notice and Note will help create attentive readers who look closely at a text, interpret it responsibly, and reflect on what it means in their lives. It should help them become the responsive, rigorous, independent readers we not only want students to be but know our democracy demands.

A new Notice and NoteLiterature Log offers students practice finding the signposts-with over-the-shoulder coaching from Kylene and Bob. Save with 5-packs.
