Text dependent literacy in social studies

1. What is text
dependent literacy?

2. As the name suggests, a text-
dependent literacy specifically asks
a question that can only be
answered by referring explicitly
back to the content being read.

3. It does not rely on any particular
extraneous background
information nor does it depend
on students having other
experiences or knowledge.

4. Instead text dependent literacy
forces students to extract from
what is before them.
