Understanding Close Reading: The Last of Part 1 - What is Close Reading?

I'm back with the second post discussing WHAT is close reading.


If you want to start reading this blog series from the beginning, click HERE to go back to the first post: Understanding Close Reading: Part 1 - What is Close Reading?


In the first post, I broke down the definition of close reading:



If you read the first post, you saw that I broke the definition of close reading down into three key parts:

1.) Purposeful re-reading
2.) Analysis
3.) Use of complex text

In an effort to avoid information overload, the first blog post (found HERE)  focused only on Purposeful Re-reading and Analysis.  

In this post, I will break down the last part of that definition: Use of complex texts. 










I'd love to know your thoughts, comments, and suggestions on the WHAT of this blog series you just read. Leave your comments below. Thank you!
