I’m Nobody Emily Dickinson Close Read

Why Close Reading? Fisher and Frey (2012) explain that questions should progress from establishing general understanding to considering key details, vocabulary/text structure, author's purpose, inferring, and forming arguments. Through rereadings, all question levels must be addressed. – After the first reading, literal-level questions promote general understanding and focus on key textual details so students grasp the main idea. Examples include "Who's the main character? What information in the text lets you know this is the main idea?" – The second reading fosters deeper thinking, focusing attention on vocabulary, text structure, and author's purpose. Questions ask students to think about the author's decisions, to consider the purpose. Examples include "How do the words influence the book's meaning? How does the story change from beginning to end?" – On the third rereading, students answer questions requiring inferences and the formation of opinions and arguments about the text, using textual evidence for support. Examples include "What would logically happen next? What clues support your thinking? Do you agree/disagree with the author? Provide evidence for your answers."
