I read this article in the Instructional Leader on Text-Dependent Questions<\/a>. As part of the WA STEM PD grant<\/a> that my school got we are working in our grade level PLC (Professional Learning Community)<\/a> for one cycle followed by departmental PLC<\/a>. There’s a different dynamic to PLC<\/a> work when you meet with your grade level PLC<\/a> than when you work with your Science PLC<\/a>. In a grade level PLC<\/a> we have the same kids but one of us teaches Humanities (Language Arts\/English and Social Studies), one of us teaches Math, and I teach Science. I can share parts of the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) that are cross cutting with the Common Core (CCSS). Text-Dependent Questions (TDQs) is one such concept that does not depend on subject matter. We can ask TDQ’s in any subject area since it’s all about asking good questions that come from a particular text.<\/p>\n

I took the image from the article and embedded links to the explanations of the different types of TDQs for easy reference. I placed embedded links with ThingLink<\/a> by making webpages of the written descriptions (copied, not my own or paraphrased in anyway). Just click on each TDQ type to get the explanation.
