Key Features of the Common Core State Standards • Aligned with college and work expectations • Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through • high-order performance skills and more complex texts • (significantly increased emphasis on informational texts) • Build upon strengths and lessons learned about current state • standards • Internationally benchmarked to prepare students for success • in our globally competitive economy and society • Research and evidence based • State-led initiative – coordinated by • National Governors Association (Center for Best Practices) and • Council of Chief State School Officers • Developed collaboratively by teachers, administrators (school/ • district/state), experts (academic/workforce), parents, students

  6. Design and Organization of the Common Core State Standards Three Main Sections • K−5 (cross-disciplinary) • 6−12 English Language Arts • 6−12 Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and • Technical Subjects (supplement to content standards; not to replace them) Three Appendices • A: Research and evidence; glossary of key terms • B: Reading text exemplars; sample performance tasks • C: Annotated student writing samples

  7. Division of the English Language Arts Common Core State Standards Four Strands of Standards DIVIDED ONLY FOR CONCEPTUAL CLARITY Reading Strand Writing Strand Speaking & Listening Strand Language Strand Grade-Specific Standards K, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9-10, 11-12 College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standards

  8. Integrated Model of Literacy Communication Processes Closely Connected Listening LANGUAGE Reading Speaking LANGUAGE Writing

  9. Examples of Integrated Literacy Standards Writing (standard 7) expects students to participate in shared research (reading) and (response through) writing projects Speaking and Listening (standard 4) expects students to present knowledge and ideas about what they read well-planned instruction and performance tasks will lead to integrated curriculum and assessment
