242: How to Do a Close Reading Lesson in Any Subject Area

  • Summary

  • To become skilled readers, our students need reading instruction in all of their classes, not just English language arts. But if other subject-area teachers don't know how to support readers, how can they do this? In this episode, literacy expert Jen Serravallo walks us through the steps of a close reading lesson, one of nine re-usable lesson structures she offers in her new book, Teaching Reading Across the Day. By the time you're done with this episode, you'll be able to teach a close reading lesson yourself.

    Thanks to Wix Tomorrow and Brisk Teaching for sponsoring this episode.
