Guest Post from Chris Lehman and Kate Roberts
Close reading is a hot topic, it has the potential to drag the energy from our classrooms OR to inspire new passions for analyzing texts, media, and life. Join us as we guest host the first #engchat of the new year on January 6th at 7PM ET. Everyone is welcome! Bring your ideas and questions from your classroom, from our new book Falling in Love with Close Reading: Lessons for Analyzing Texts–and Life (Heinemann 2013), and from your own “close living” of life. It is sure to be an exciting conversation!
To prepare for our chat, we invite you to check out the archive of our 2013 “Close Reading Blog-a-thon” here (http://christopherlehman.wordpress.com/oddsends/we-are-closely-reading-close-reading/) or samples from our new book here (http://heinemann.sites.hubspot.com/falling-in-love-with-close-reading-sample).
Looking forward to ringing in 2014 with the #engchat educator community!
