Close Text Reading Support

In response to my renewed invitation at last week's faculty meeting, I have enjoyed locating and analyzing resources this week from teachers' queries about hydraulic fracturing, adaption of the peppered moth, the mills at Lowell Massachusetts, and the Erie Canal. I set up some stacks (see links in this post) for ease of sharing and updating. This collaboration is the result of a presentation about Close Text Reading procedures we need to be adopting and the service that I can provide in locating and analyzing resources, as well as drafting questions of rigor for the readings. I am excited about the prospects for myself, our teachers and outr students.
