• Not recall!

Author’s Purpose
![Page 28: Text Complexity and Text-dependent Questions. Assessing Texts Quantitative measures Qualitative values Task and Reader considerations.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649ce15503460f949ac66e/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Author’s Purpose in Kindergarten
Who tells the story—the narrator or the caterpillar?
![Page 29: Text Complexity and Text-dependent Questions. Assessing Texts Quantitative measures Qualitative values Task and Reader considerations.](https://reader038.fdocuments.us/reader038/viewer/2022103022/56649ce15503460f949ac66e/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
A narrator tells the story, because he uses the words he and his. If it was the caterpillar, he would say I and my.

Inferences
Probe each argument in persuasive text, each idea in informational text,
each key detail in literary text, and
observe how these build to a whole.

The caterpillar ate food every day “but he was still hungry.” On Saturday he ate so much food he got a stomachache! Then he was “a big, fat caterpillar” so he could build a cocoon and turn into a butterfly.

Develop Text-dependent Questions for Your Text
Do the questions require the reader to return to the text?
Do the questions require the reader to use evidence to support his or her ideas or claims?
Do the questions move from text-explicit to text-implicit knowledge?
Are there questions that require the reader to analyze, evaluate, and create?
