What is close analytic reading?What is close analytic reading?
A close reading is the careful, sustained analysis of any text that focuses on significant details or patterns and that typically examines some aspect of the text’s form, craft, meanings, etc.

What does PARCC say about What does PARCC say about close analytic reading?close analytic reading?
Close analytic reading stresses engaging with a text of sufficient complexity directly and examining its meaning thoroughly and methodically, encouraging students to read and reread deliberately.

Close analytic reading stresses engaging with a text of sufficient complexity directly and examining its meaning thoroughly and methodically, encouraging students to read and reread deliberately. Directing student attention on the text itself empowers students to understand the central ideas and key supporting details.

Close analytic reading stresses engaging with a text of sufficient complexity directly and examining its meaning thoroughly and methodically, encouraging students to read and reread deliberately. Directing student attention on the text itself empowers students to understand the central ideas and key supporting details. It also enables students to reflect onthe meanings of individual words and sentences; the order in whichsentences unfold; and the development of ideas over the course of the text,which ultimately leads students to arrive at an understanding of the text as awhole.

What have ELA experts observed about the CCSS for ELA/Literacy vis-à-vis close analytic reading?
• Past standards have been based largely upon theories of reading comprehension drawn from cognitive science.
Emphasize procedures or strategies that readers use to guide their reading (e.g., summarization, questioning, monitoring, visualizing)
• The common core standards are also based upon theory, but literary theory not psychological theory.
Depend heavily upon “New Criticism”

What are the implications of close analytic reading for making strategic and informed
decisions in ELA?
• Selection of text
• Role of strategic reading v close reading
• Reader stamina: “thorough, methodical analysis”
• Level of questioning
• Use of evidence in writing or speaking to support claims about the text
