Read for Detail Mini-Lesson (RI.1)

For students who struggle with reading for detail, create a concept map. Ask students to write the topic of an article in the center of a blank sheet of paper (or provide them with the topic). Ask them to add important details about the topic as they read, and to connect each detail to the topic with an arrow. They should include a paragraph number with each detail they add, for reference. Tell students that when they are asked something about a topic, they might start by rephrasing the question as a statement. This will help them understand what to look for. (For example, they might rephrase “Who was Abraham Lincoln?” as “Abraham Lincoln was . . .” Have students use this map to identify answers to questions.
