Close Reading Plan
1. What will you read? Choose a text that is
- short (you can use part of a text)
- challenging for your students
2. How will it be read? Choose students read, choral reading, or teacher reads. Consider:-the decoding ability of your students-your students’ familiarity with the vocabulary
3. Choose a skill for the first read that can be practiced with the text you chose.
4. Set a purpose. Decide what you’ll say to your students before reading to aim them toward the skill being practiced. You might ask them to make annotations in the text as they read or listen.
5. Text dependent question: Notice that horizontally across from each skill is a text dependent question to match. You may want to write in notes the question or the answer you’re looking for.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 for the “2nd read” and “3rd read” sections
Note: The box to the far right of the page reminds you that all answers students give should be connected to text evidence.

Library Bill of Rights
The American Library Association affirms that all libraries are
forums for information and ideas, and that the following basic policies should
guide their services.
I. Books and other library resources should be provided
for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community
the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin,
background, or views of those contributing to their creation.
II. Libraries should provide materials and information
presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. Materials
should not be proscribed or removed because of partisan or doctrinal
disapproval.
III. Libraries should challenge censorship in the fulfillment of
their responsibility to provide information and enlightenment.
IV. Libraries should cooperate with all persons and groups
concerned with resisting abridgment of free expression and free access to
ideas.
V. A person’s right to use a library should not be denied or
abridged because of origin, age, background, or views.
VI. Libraries which make exhibit spaces and meeting rooms
available to the public they serve should make such facilities available on an
equitable basis, regardless of the beliefs or affiliations of individuals or
groups requesting their use.
VII. All people, regardless of origin, age, background, or
views, possess a right to privacy and confidentiality in their library use.
Libraries should advocate for, educate about, and protect people’s privacy,
safeguarding all library use data, including personally identifiable
information.
Adopted June 19, 1939, by the ALA Council; amended October 14,
