  1. Non-critical vs. Critical Reading Ms. Mo OCSA

  2. “How to Bartle Puzballs?” “Conversation Piece” You relied on a key words to form your interpretation: “dead,” “unfaithful,” “police” You inferred murder and infidelity You imagined You explored possibilities There was some room for variance for interpretation What were the two different “levels” of reading we experienced in today’s opening activity? • You found the answers verbatim in the text • You pronounced words but didn’t understand the meaning of them • You finished the worksheet but have no “enduring understanding”

  3. Primary goal is to RECOGNIZE what a text says • Recognize a sequence of events • Understand main ideas and opinions of the topic presented Your response in annotating: • Predict a topic or plot from the title • Feel free to note areas or even write the actual question where you are confused, curious, reacting strongly • Circle new vocabulary words to look up later **Non-critical reading is satisfied with recognizing what a text says and restating the key remarks First draft/level of reading = non-critical reading

  4. Close reading asks us to go beyond recognizing what a text states, it asks us to re-read to identify • What a text does (this is called description) • What a text means (this is called interpretation ) Your response in annotating: • Ask specific questions and explore answers • Use your existing knowledge to infer [logically guess] what the text means • Look at language use Goals of Critical Reading • Recognize an author’s purpose            • Understand tone and persuasive elements • Recognize bias Second draft/level of reading = close and criticalreading

  5. IMPLY INFER Based on your existing knowledge and new clues from the text, what are you logically guessing/concluding? What meaning are you constructing [making] in between the lines? Two key terms • What is the author’s trying to say in a subtle way? • Where can you find evidence of his/her implication?? • How does this implication connect to the author’s purpose at large in this text?
