Common Core questioning requires students to actually read a text and goes deeper than the 5Ws So what is text-dependent questioning?
Text-Dependent Questions • Answered through close reading of a complex text • Evidence comes from the text not outside sources • Require understanding beyond basic facts • Invitation for students to think deeply about a text and compare it with their own perspectives and experiences. • Focus on the text itself to build a strong foundation of knowledge • Use explicit and implicit information from the text to support reasoning. • Focus on difficult portions of text in order to enhance reading proficiency
Non-Example • If you were present at the signing of the Declaration of Independence, what would you do? Example • What are the reasons listed in the preamble for supporting the author’s argument to separate from Great Britain?
How do I use this with my students? • Not a rigid hierarchy • Notice frequency of levels of questions • Students must be TAUGHT how to respond deeply, citing evidence from the text.
General Understandings • Overall view of text • Global questions • Understanding of what the author “really” said • Gist • Core understandings • Central ideas
Key Details • 5W • Nuances in meaning • Determine importance • Main idea and supporting details
Vocabulary and Text Structure • Specific words and phrases • Text structure • Literal and inferential meanings • Denotation and connotation • Figurative language • Text organization • Semantics and syntax
Author’s Purpose • PIE • POV • Distinguishing own POV apart from the author
Inferences • Not just guessing or “reading between the lines” • Students probe arguments in persuasive text • Students probe each fact in informational text • Students probe each detail in literary text • Observe how each part builds into a whole text
Opinions, arguments, and intertextual connections • Generate discussion and personal connections • Should still be built on text dependency • Analyze claims, evidence and counterclaims • Consider logic and perspectives other than their own
Why ask text-dependent questions? To teach kids to: • Ask text-dependent questions of themselves • Think critically • Analyze • Construct well-reasoned arguments with evidence
Planning Text Dependent Questions Use the language of the standards
Modifying “Text-Dependent” Questions from Peter Pan • Original • How did Peter get inside the Darling children’s room? Use evidence from the text to support your thinking. • PARCC Framework • How does Peter’s visit to the nursery fit into the sequence of events in Chapter 2? Use evidence from the text to support your thinking.
(continued) • Original • How did the stars help Peter at the end of the chapter? Use evidence from the text to support your thinking. • PARCC Framework • How do the stars’ actions contribute to the story? Use evidence from the text to support your thinking.
How do I scaffold rigorous text-dependent questions for my kids? Interactive Notebooks!
What are Interactive Notebooks? • A note taking process that allows students to record information in a personal and meaningful way. • A way for students use teacher supplied notes to draw whatever illustration makes sense to them. • A way for students to personalize their work. • A way for students to organize and keep up with their learning.
Interactive vs. Regular Notebooks Interactive • Creative, independent thinkers and learners • Students express their own ideas in addition to teacher instruction • Synthesis • Evaluation Regular • Students record notes from a teacher • Worksheets • Knowledge • Comprehension
This Process… • Can be challenging • Takes a bit of patience and planning • Requires modeling, modeling, modeling • Must consistently be reinforced • Takes time to learn both for the teacher and for the students to develop their own style
The Payoff… • Is a way for students to organize their work • Uses reading strategies within a content area, such as science or social studies • Helps students keep up with useful information throughout a unit of study
…And Finally • Students make their own meaningful connections • It encourages pride in student work • It encourages cooperative learning • It appeals to multiple intelligences • The kids love it and learn so much!
What Students Need… • The notebook-loose leaf paper in a three pronged folder, spiral notebook, or composition book • Pencils, regular and colored • Liquid glue or a glue stick • Scissors • Ruler • Teacher supplied notes • Grading expectations
Table of Contents • This is the student’s organizing page. • Is an outline of their notebook and can be filled in as they go or completed at the end of the unit. It is easier to fill in as you go! • Make sure students leave enough room, especially for big units
Vocabulary • Word Wall Pages • Literary Word Wall • Peter Pan • Wendy • Tinker Bell • Captain Hook • Supporting Characters • “Landmark” Vocabulary Pages • New vocabulary words in context
words with similar word parts; i.e. jealousy working definition, context clues, and inferences linguistic structure synonyms student illustration to SHOW MEANING student sentence to SHOW MEANING antonyms new word “Landmark” Vocabulary original sentence from text
Daily Chapter Work • Record lesson objectives in language of the standards • Can write directly into notebooks during QuickWrites • Can create foldables and glue into notebooks. • Collect Reading Response activities and exit tickets in notebook.
