  2. Objective • To familiarize staff with the basic functions of the first four tabs on the ribbon. • At the end of the training you will be able to: - Create a new document and save - Format a document - Insert elements in a document - Page layout - Apply technology use with Close Reading

  3. CCSS • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.CCRA.R.1 Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.CCRA.R.4 Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a text, including determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and analyze how specific word choices shape meaning or tone. • CCSS.ELA-Literacy.CCRA.R.7 Integrate and evaluate content presented in diverse media and formats, including visually and quantitatively, as well as in words.

  8. Application – Classroom UseClose Reading • Your purpose at this point is to read as you would ask your students to read: multiple times, device in hand, with different (increasingly complex) purposes as you read and re-read. • First, to determine the general meaning of the text (leaving knowledge and application of literary elements more or less tacit for now). Keep asking yourself, “What’s going on, and how do I know?” • Second, to examine the ways the author uses language and the discipline-specific structures of literature to create meaning. Your focusing question here might be “How do the author’s choices help me understand or appreciate something that I didn’t notice the first time I read?” • Third, to consider thematic meaning and connections between this text and others like it. Here, ask yourself, “Does this text cause me to think or wonder about some larger aspect of the text orof the human condition?”

  9. Example of a Close Reading using Word Students will open a previously created Word document to read the passage. Students will use the highlight function to make notes to identify supporting text for each Close Reading (changing colors as they re-read). Students can use the New Comments Tool under the Review tab to make annotations as they read.

  10. This is just a quick shot of how Microsoft Word can be used in all content areas to help meet CCSS.
