What are the elements are involved in doing a close reading?
Elenna [48]
 The text (or excerpt) is short.
 The text is complex. (It contains challenging vocabulary, has some long and complex sentence structures, requires that students draw from background knowledge and/or experiences for understanding, uses a new or different text structure).
 The text is central to or supports the unit of study - it is contextualized in the unit and, therefore, meaningful for student learning.
 Each student has his/her own copy of the text. (In primary grades, the experience may be designed around a read aloud.)
 (Optional) The length of the text may be differentiated for different groups of students, based on language proficiency or reading levels.
 A subset of reading standards has been selected. (For ELL’s, specific language standards may also apply.)
 The selected standards include Reading Standard 1 (text evidence) and Reading Standard 4 (meaning of words and phrases), which force students to stay “close” to the text.
 The purpose (and the specific skills and strategies) are directly linked to the selected standards.
 The purpose of the close reading experience is clearly stated for students. It explains the specific skills and strategies that students will practice.
•The first reading of the text is done independently. (In primary grades, within a read aloud or shared reading.)
 The student is asked to re-read to deepen understanding.
•The teacher reads portions of the text aloud, after an independent read (if needed)
 There are specific, text-specific questions to guide reading, discussion and writing.  The questions are directly related to the focus and identified standards.
 Some questions target literal understanding and others require students to make inferences, analyze or make connections (depending on selected standards).
 Some questions require students to cite textual evidence. RL 1 / RI 1 ANNOTATION (In primary grades, students may not be asked to annotate.)
 Students annotate the text (using taught strategies) in order to prepare for discussions and writing.
 The annotation strategy matches the purpose for reading and the standards selected.
 Students have an opportunity to discuss specific questions in partnerships or in small groups (to ensure that every student can engage with the questions) before whole class discussion.
 Discussion is embedded in every day of the close reading experience (if there are multiple days).
 Protocols for discussion may be used as students are learning to engage effectively with each other.
 Students have opportunities to consolidate their thoughts by drawing and/or writing. (Writing tasks vary in length, from short responses to longer pieces. They may be summaries, reactions, or responses to specific questions. They can be completed in class or at home.)

An essay about global warming<br>​
djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Global warming is a phenomenon where the earth’s average temperature rises up due to increased amounts of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane and ozone trap the incoming radiation from the sun. This effect creates a natural “blanket” which prevents the heat from escaping back into the atmosphere. This effect is called a greenhouse effect.

Contrary to popular belief, greenhouse gases are not inherently bad. In fact, the greenhouse effect is quite important for life on earth. Without this effect, the sun’s radiation would be reflected back into the atmosphere, freezing the surface and making life impossible. However, when greenhouse gasses in excess amounts get trapped, serious repercussions begin to appear. The polar ice caps begin to melt, leading to the rise in sea levels. Furthermore, the greenhouse effect is accelerated when polar ice caps and sea ice melts. This is due to the fact the ice reflects 50% to 70% of the sun’s rays back into space; but without ice, the solar radiation gets absorbed. Seawater reflects only 6% of the sun’s radiation back into space. What’s more frightening is the fact that the poles contain large amounts of carbon dioxide trapped within the ice. If this ice melts, it will significantly contribute to global warming.

A related scenario when this phenomenon goes out of control is the runaway-greenhouse effect. This scenario is essentially similar to an apocalypse, but it is all too real. Though this has never happened in the earth’s entire history, it is speculated to have occurred on Venus. Millions of years ago, Venus was thought to have an atmosphere similar to Earths’. But due to the runaway greenhouse effect, surface temperatures around the planet began rising.

If this occurs on earth, the runaway greenhouse effect will lead to many unpleasant scenarios – temperatures will rise hot enough for oceans to evaporate. Once the oceans evaporate, the rocks will start to sublimate under the heat. To prevent such a scenario, proper measures have to be taken to stop climate change.
