Enhancing Complex Text Comprehension: Analyzing and Implementing Effective Scaffolds

Learn to analyze and apply instructional practices and scaffolds to help students comprehend complex text using both quantitative and qualitative measures. Explore strategies for scaffolding within and across lessons to support all students in meeting standards. Reflect on your own experiences as a learner in the "Common Core era" and consider implications for students. Engage in discussions, analyze text complexity, and collaborate on scaffolding techniques. This session is the final grade-level meeting for the week. Thank you for your participation!

  1. EXPERIENCING THE MODULES: Instructional Practices and Scaffolds that help students read and comprehend complex text

  2. LT 4a. I can analyze text for its complexity using both quantitative and qualitative measures. LT 4c. I can analyze the role of specific practices and scaffolds in helping all students read and comprehend complex texts.

  3. Analyzing the Text based on Gradients in Complexity Directions: • Locate a specific complex text in this module • Locate the “Gradients in Complexity: Literary Texts” (Day 4) • Analyze the text based on the gradients: • What do you notice? • What do you wonder?

  4. Framing • Experiencing the modules through the lens of a learner • Consider one’s own experience as a “Common Core era” learner • Based on one’s own experience, reflect on the implications for students

  9. Supporting Learning Targets for this lesson (as “students”)

  10. Debrief LT 3b. I can analyze the role of specific practices and scaffolding in helping all students cite and use evidence from text. Directions: • Begin to fill in Text Complexity recording form.

  11. Analyzing the scaffolds to help students access complex text: within a lesson Directions: • Locate a lesson late in the unit (TBD) • Focus on the body of the lesson: what are the specific moves that scaffold for student success? • Focus on the “Meeting Students’ Needs” column: what additional scaffolds are suggested and how might they help?

  12. Analyzing the scaffolds to help students access complex text: across multiple lessons Directions: • Locate 2-3 lessons that precede the lesson you just analyzed (TBD) • Focus on the body of the lessons: what are the specific moves that scaffold for students’ success over time? • Focus on the “Meeting Students’ Needs” column: what additional scaffolds are suggested and how might they help?

  13. Analyzing specific scaffolding strategies • For those who are ready or for all participants • Examine lesson #1. Note how specific strategies are built into the body of lesson and included in the “Meeting Students’ Needs” column. • What do you notice? • What do you wonder • How might these serve as a model for scaffolding in other parts of the unit?

  14. Back to our learning targets • LT 4a. I can analyze text for its complexity using both quantitative and qualitative measures. • LT 4c. I can analyze the role of specific practices and scaffolds in helping all students read and comprehend complex texts.

  15. Debrief Directions: At tables • Discuss what you want to capture on your Text Complexity recording form about scaffolding based on the following: • Your analysis of complex text • Your experience of a lesson related to complex text, and • Analyzing scaffolding within and across lessons. • How might these practice support all students in meeting the standards? • For those ready for an additional challenge, incorporate how the lesson reflects our research reading from the morning. • Chart key ideas from your discussion. • Present key ideas to the whole group.

  16. Thank you! • This is our final grade-level session for the week. • Appreciations . . . .
