reading for various purposes:
To experience literature
To gain information
To perform tasks
To apply critical analysis and evaluation
What is on the Reading EOG’s?
• 8 selections ( 58questions)
• Four types of items
– Cognition
– Interpretation
– Critical Stance
– Connections
What is on the reading EOG’s?
• Reading and knowledge of vocabulary
• Literary and informational texts
– Literary texts: fiction, poetry, and literary
non-fiction such as biographies, letters,
journals, and essays.
– Informational texts: content areas (art,
science, math, social studies, etc.) and
consumer selections ( pamphlets, reviews,
recipes, how – to, etc)
