to talk or write about a topic in great detail
Students should be provided the opportunity to have a dialogue about the connections between specific ideas in the text and how they contribute to meaning. Hearing other points of view and sharing can help students confirm their own connections and inferences, consider the complexities of an idea, or determine that they have misinterpreted information and should revisit the text to establish a better understanding.
Students should be able to identify and talk about the ideas in the text that best represent its overall stated or implied meaning. If students truly understand the meaning of the text, they should be able to determine what parts of the text express ideas that would convey this meaning to someone wanting to know what the text was about.
