What is close reading?

Close Reading (sometimes called Repeated Reading) describes the
careful, sustained interpretation of a brief passage of text. Research
links the close reading of text to significant gains in reading.
The careful study of a short text passage helps build a deep,
critical understanding of the text. Children learn to comprehend
text, analyse, synthesise and critically examine information.
