Close Reading & Critical Thinking
Close Reading & Critical Thinking
Methods for guiding students to read closely and engage deeply with text.
This is a mini-lesson that I created for Close Reading. I used "The Road Not Taken" by Robert Frost to model this strategy. This lesson can be modified for use in my own classroom.
This T-Chart gives examples of critical thinking experiences and non-critical thinking experiences. I can utilize this list when brainstorming activities to do in my classroom, to make sure that I am providing the best critical thinking experience for my students.
This presentation includes explanations of each Critical Thinking Strategy, provided by the students of EDU 422. These examples can also help with planning activities.
