Prove It!Text-Dependent Questions and Evidence-Based Claims
Grade 3, Session 2November 5, 2014
Presented by:Debi Bober, Ed.D, NBCTdbober@lbschools.net
AGENDA• Introductions• Text-dependent questioning• Depth of Knowledge (DOK)• Text-based answers• Evidence-based claims• Task Complexity• Grade-Level-Team Discussion and
Commitments• Closing and Evaluation
Packet p. 1
Today’s ObjectivesYou will leave with…• Effective strategies for teaching and practicing
text dependent questioning• A deeper understanding of Webb’s Depth of
Knowledge• Specific knowledge of evidence-based claims• Strategies for increasing task complexity• Collaborative relationships with colleagues
Norms for Collaborative Learning
• Listen to understand • Watch (share) airtime • Be fully present (start and end on
time; silence electronics)• Support one another’s learning • Honor all voices; invite different
perspectives• Be open to new ideas
How have you tried close reading? How is it going?
Turn and Talk
We will…• Focus on understanding the standards• plan explicit learning targets/ goals• State the purpose for each close reading• Access a range of complex and appropriate text• Include cooperative engagement strategies • Execute “3 lenses” • 1) What does the text say? (The gist)• 2) How does the text say it? • 3) What does the text mean?
• Create a poster/ handout/ protocol for close reading
Action Plans
We will…• Record student thinking on Post-Its OR• students will write directly on copied text during close
reading BEFORE we come together to talk• Use close reading Literature Bookmarks• Hold a class discussion- “what is the purpose of close
reading?”• NOT abandon already-good practice• Allow students & standards to guide my instruction,
not the curriculum
Action Plans
• How do you fit in writing genres?• Can I still incorporate balanced literacy?• How much frontloading should I provide before a
close reading?• How do you get kids to make inferences?• How do you get kids to intentionally look for clues?• What about the kids who “don’t get the gist”?• What about advanced students? How complex is
complex for MY students? How do I decide?• What is the legality of copying so much text?
Reflection Questions
Instructional Shift #1
SHIFT #1Students need regular practice with complex texts and their academic language–Text complexity–Academic vocabulary
Instructional Shift #2
SHIFT #2Reading, writing, and speaking must be grounded in evidence from texts, both literary and informational– Close reading – Text-dependent
questions – Evidence-based
writing
Instructional Shift #3SHIFT #3Students need to build knowledge through content-rich nonfiction– Balance of fiction and non-fiction– Disciplinary literacy
CC ELA Anchor Standards
Unpacking Reading Standards for Informational Text
Packet pp. 2-5
• What do the Grade 3 Standards for Informational Text say?
TO BEGIN- • Individually list the three most important ideas
from reading the Grade 3 Standards for Informational Text.
Instructional Strategy #1:
ConsensusRI.3.2 Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea.
Packet pp. 2-5
Instructional Strategy #1:
Consensus
Pair up to come to a consensus about the three most important ideas from the text. Pairs then form quads to discuss and come to a consensus about the three most important ideas. Debrief as a whole group, coming to a final consensus of the three most important main ideas. (Beers & Howell, 2003)
RI.3.2 Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea.
Text-Dependent Questions
• Text-dependent questions can only be answered by referring back to the text, producing a text-based answer
“These are questions designed to compel students to examine and analyze the author’s work.” From Mapping and Designing Units to the ELA Common Core
DESIGNING Text Dependent Questions
Step 1: Identify the essential understanding of the text Step 2: Identify what is noteworthy about the text Step 3: Target vocabulary and text structure Step 4: Target key details Step 5: Recognize challenging areas
Text-Dependent Questions
Module 4: Unit 1: Lesson 8
• Read “River to the Sea”
• In pairs, discuss and chart a text-dependent question for the text
Packet pp. 6-7
Evidence-Based Claims
MAKING A CLAIM means….– Taking a position or making an inference,
and supporting your position or inference with evidence from the text
When a CLAIM is provided…– Students look for evidence to support the
claim
When the EVIDENCE is provided…– Students choose a claim that is supported
by the evidence
Evidence-Based Claims
Locate the author’s claims about rivers in this text.
What questions could you ask students in order to practice supporting the claim with evidence from the text?
Packet pp. 6-7
Packet pp. 6-7
CLAIM: Nature plays the most important role in preserving Earth’s water supply. Does the author support this claim?
• TASK: Each group locates a key detail to defend whether or not the author supports the given CLAIM.
Instructional Strategy #2:
CLAIM Defense
Packet pp. 6-7
CLAIM: Nature plays the most important role in preserving Earth’s water supply. Does the author support this claim?
The author supports / does not support this claim based on the key detail ___________.
This detail demonstrates that the author believes ____________________.
Instructional Strategy #2:

Evidence-Based Claims
Rigor & Complexity
We can create easy, simple, literal questions that are still text-dependent, or we can create harder questions or tasks that may or may not be text-dependent.
Task ComplexityTo determine task complexity or rigor, use Webb’s Depth of Knowledge: Level 1: Recall and ReproductionLevel 2: Skills and ConceptsLevel 3: Strategic ThinkingLevel 4: Extended Thinking
Packet pp. 10
• Read your text dependent question.
• Choose one of the four DOK levels you feel aligns with your text dependent question.
• Discuss your reasoning for choosing that level with the others in your group.
Levels of DOKin Text-Dependent Questions
Task Complexity
“Indicators of high-quality, appropriate task complexity include structures that elevate academic language, a design that requires students to work together at grade-level work, and the opportunity for productive failure.” (Source: Frey and Fisher-- http://www.nassp.org/tabid/3788/default.aspx?topic=Task_Complexity)
Task Complexity
What happens
when people don’t have access to
clean water?

Think-Pair-Share
• How might you incorporate these strategies into your reading instruction?
• What challenges might you encounter?
Grade-Level-Team Work
• Set a goal to focus on one of today’s topics:
• Text-dependent questioning• Depth of Knowledge (DOK) • Text-based answers• Evidence-based claims• Task Complexity & Rigor
