Close Reading (sometimes called Repeated Reading) describes the careful, sustained interpretation of a brief passage of text. Research links the close reading of text to significant gains in reading. The careful study of a short text passage helps build a deep, critical understanding of the text. Children learn to comprehend text, analyse, synthesise and critically examine information.   SERIES INFORMATION Short Reads are deliberately short to focus children on purposeful reading, re-reading and responding.
