\3 Considerations THAT Make text complex
The book’s Lexile Number…generated by
a computer using a complicated formula.
The book’s language created by the author employing the author’s
craft and literacy devices. (Anchor Standard 4, 5 & 6) ex: vocabulary,
sentence structure, syntax, etc.
The reader’s role in the text transaction. All the cognitive
capabilities, personal & motivational elements, experiences, content
knowledge and reading skills that a reader brings to the
reading experience.

Here’s Why…Time In & out of Text
More instructional time spent outside the text means less time inside the text. Departing from the text in classroom discussion privileges only those who already have experience with the topic. It is easier to talk about our experiences than to analyze the text—especially for students reluctant to engage with reading.

“The yellow snow blower that my father bought for my mother for their 15th wedding anniversary last year is now sitting in the garage, under a pile of old boxes and newspapers, where she left it that night, just before she threw her mobile phone, the one with my pictures on it, at dad, and burst into tears.” …to explore the architecture of thoughts and feelings

Text BASED Questions
1. The text says, “My grandmother
was saw the emperor…” who’s
telling the story?
2. Using evidence from the text
and the illustration , infer where
this story takes place. Tell how
you know.
3. The author says, “he lost his
golden dragon throne.” Talk
about the author’s word choice
of lost and how it’s used in the
context of this page.

I’m thinking, “Why don’t we just teach kids “the symbolism doesn’t change” from text to text! A rose always mean beauty, bells always mean freedom, rocks always mean strength, storms always mean hard times, leaves and fall
always mean change, etc…”

Anticipating Complexity
What makes this complex? What will students find confusing?
What am I going to do about it?

READER-TEXT Considerations 3rd dimension of complexity
Language is sparse & plain Uses common words Sentences are often short Little language complexity 6th grade lexile “HOWEVER, many students would have difficulty understanding this simplicity, not because of the book itself but in the interaction between the reader and the book. Few preteens have had the emotional experiences that would prepare them to understand the old man’s determination to maintain hope & dignity in the face of overwhelming odds.” – Shanahan, et.al.

Characteristics of… Close Reading
• Works best with short passages. • The focus is intense. • It will extend from the passage itself to other
part of the text. • It should involve a great deal of exploratory
discussion. • It involves rereading.
JJ adds..& teachers actually reading the text they are going to teach from.. before the kids do

Stretch Level for All
However, for students reading at or above the benchmark for their grade level, for any quarter, for example, end of 2nd quarter, 2nd grade benchmark is 19/20, therefore, a child’s instructional level IS their stretch level and instruction in guided reading will be close reading of complex text in the 2/3 stretch band. Their one instructional level scoop IS their stretch scoop.

Stretch Level for All However, for students
reading below their grade level benchmark, especially for students whose instructional reading level is at least one year below their grade level benchmark, they will receive two scoops of guided reading daily-- one at their instructional level with less scaffolding, and another one on grade level (their stretch scoop) with more scaffolding on complex text in their stretch band.
