E30: Teacher Certification Podcast | FTCE | Reading | Analyzing Multiple Texts In today’s episode, I’ll be talking about the FTCE General Knowledge Reading Subtest. This is part 9 of a multi-series review of what YOU need to know to pass the Reading section of the GK. Today we are going to talk about analyzing multiple texts. What? You mean like reading two passages at the same time? Well, yeaaah… but not at the same time. Heheh YOU are soooo dramatic! Today is a great day to really own and apply those reading strategy skills you’ve learned about in the last few episodes, and you know what, YOU got this because YOU are AMAZING! Concept #1 Analyzing multiple texts Let’s put it this way - on the exam you will be asked to compare and contrast two passages. And you know how to do this because you will be applying your word detective skills! When you evaluate the two passages you will using your summarizing skills like in Episode 25, your identifying the author’s tone and purpose skills from Episodes 27 & 28, and your ability to identify stated claims like in Episode 29. You can revisit these episodes at anytime to review these skills.
