Why Use Text Dependent Questions?
“An effective set of text-dependent questions delves systematically into text to guide students toward extracting the key meanings or ideas found there.” – achievethecore.org
Not all questions should be text dependent, however, they should be used to help unlock the meaning of complex texts.
The power of text dependent questions lies in the ability to create independent readers of complex texts

Choose a Text Worth Reading
Not every text is worthy of a close reading that requires an analysis lead by text dependent questions. Choose wisely.
A worthy text :is complexis aligned to content standards and supports understanding of topic, solves a problem, or informs citizens
Is engaging for readers
![Page 15: Disciplinary Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813ebb550346895da920d2/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
SECONDARY TEXT: Theodore Roosevelt“Duties of American Citizenship”
Speech delivered on January 26, 1883; Buffalo, New York
Start with a Complex Text That Fits Your Content Needs
![Page 16: Disciplinary Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813ebb550346895da920d2/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Know the Text Well Use annotation to identify important and
challenging areas of the text before constructing questions.
Read and annotate the text. Identify …
• the central ideas and key details of the text.
• key academic vocabulary and text structure
• the sections of the text that will present the most difficulty (difficult sentence structure, dense or unfamiliar information, tricky inferences).
• Areas critical to gaining the desired content knowledge

HOW TO CRAFT
QUESTIONS
![Page 19: Disciplinary Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813ebb550346895da920d2/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
• Identify the core understandings and key ideas.
• Include opening questions to orient students to the text and provide confidence.
• Craft questions based on powerful academic words and text structures connected to the key ideas.
• Develop questions that support tough sections of text presenting the greatest difficulty for deep understanding.
• Sequence the series of questions to build toward deeper analysis.
• Identify which standards are aligned with the questions.
Considerations for Writing Text-dependent Questions for Close Analytic Reading
![Page 20: Disciplinary Literacy](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022070405/56813ebb550346895da920d2/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Some Thoughts on Writing TDQs
• There is no one right way to have students work with text- dependent questions.
• Differing needs of students means providing and scaffolding supports differentially - not asking easier questions or substituting simpler text.
• Listening and speaking should be built into any sequence of activities along with reading and writing.
• The CCSS require ALL students to read and engage with grade appropriate complex text regularly. This requires new ways of working in our classrooms.

Example 1
Secondary Example: What does shirk mean in the following sentence: “No man has a right to shirk his political duties under whatever plea of pleasure or business?” What is Roosevelt’s argument in this statement?

Your turn
1. Review your annotations.
2. Where in the text would you pause and ask a text-dependent questions that causes students to slow down reading and analyze the text?
3. Craft questions that address these difficult or important areas of the text.
4. Organize the questions into a meaningful progression for students.
