C.L.O.S.E. Reading Poetry Consider the title Label the lines and stanzas Observe word choices and figurative language Spot the sounds and rhythm Examine the subject/theme

Observing a Close Reading Close reading is thoughtfully and actively reading and analyzing a text for better understanding. The reader writes responses and comments on the text or on a post-it. This is called annotating. USE YOUR PENCIL AND WRITE, WRITE, WRITE!

What should YOU do when you annotate? Consider the meaning of the title. Number the lines and stanzas. Observe figurative language and work choice. Ask questions about the poem. Spot rhyme and rhythm. Make inferences about the speaker. Find details to support the main idea. Use text details to form inferences.

While reading poetry, ask…. What is the first thing I notice? What might the title mean? What is the subject? Can the subject be a metaphor or symbol? What type of poem is it? How does it sound? Is there rhythm, rhyme, and/or repetition? Are there unfamiliar words? Does the author use figurative language? Does the author make interesting word choices? What can I infer about the speaker? Can I tell the tone and mood? What is the theme?
