Making Connections Digging Below the Surface To Find Meaning in a Text

Three Types of Connections TS Text to Self TT Text to Text TW Text to World 3 Kinds of Connections

Text to Self How does the reading relate to you personally? Characters similar to you or your friends? Setting remind you of a place you’ve been? Plot remind you of something in your own life? Situations remind you of similar situations you’ve experienced?

Text to Text Does the reading remind you of another text? Are characters similar to characters in another book or movie? Are settings similar to settings in other stories? Are there similar situations/plots to a book, story, poem, or movie you’ve read or seen? Have you read/viewed other texts with similar situations?

Text to World How does the reading relate to larger world/societal issues? Is the reading similar to current events? Does the reading remind you of historical events? Does the reading remind you of societal issues, problems, controversies?

Ogres are like onions: They have layers.

Making Insightful Connections Dig DEEP for “Onion” ideas: meaningful connections that lead to discussion of BIG IDEAS.

DIG beyond the surface to the deeper meanings of a text. Connect to the Text!
