Episode 11: TO TEACH CLOSE READING: SYNTAX
In this episode, we pivot a bit from educational philosophy and general teaching to a specific ELA strategy - close reading. We talk through what a close reading lesson is, what we use it for in our own classrooms, and then walk through two sample texts/lessons using close reading to teach the author's craft skill syntax.
