  2. WHY SAY MEAN MATTER? CAHSEE Standards: Extend ideas presented in primary or secondary sources through original analysis, evaluation, and elaboration Evaluate the credibility of an author’s argument or defense of a claim by critiquing the relationship between generalizations and evidence, the comprehensiveness of evidence, and the way in which the author’s intent affects the structure and tone of the text There are 18 reading comprehension questions on the CAHSEE. Here are two of the six standards:

  3. CAHSEE Writing-- Response to Literary/Expository Text Rubric: Score of 4: The response— • demonstrates a thoughtful, comprehensive grasp of the text. • accurately and coherently provides specifictextual details and examples to support the thesis and main ideas. • demonstrates a clearunderstanding of the ambiguities, nuances, and complexities of the text.

  4. History/Social Science Literary Common Core Standards for 9th-10th and 11th-12th CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RH.9-10.1Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, attending to such features as the date and origin of the information. CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RH.11-12.1 Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, connecting insights gained from specific details to an understanding of the text as a whole.

  5. Science and Technical Common Core Literary Standards for 9th-10th & 11th-12th CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.9-10.1Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to the precise details of explanations or descriptions. CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RST.11-12.1Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to important distinctions the author makes and to any gaps or inconsistencies in the account.

  6. One more common core standard: Writing (Non-Language Arts) CCSS.ELA-Literacy.WHST.9-10.2bDevelop the topic with well-chosen, relevant, and sufficient facts, extended definitions, concrete details, quotations, or other information and examples appropriate to the audience’s knowledge of the topic.

  7. What is S What is it? An organizer to graph your thoughts:

  8. Using this strategy with a text • Excerpts from the Communist Manifesto • by Friederich Engels and Karl Marx, 1848 • “The modern bourgeois society...has not done away with class antagonisms. It has but established new forms of struggle in place of the old ones. Modern industry has converted the little workshop of the patriarchal master into the great factory of the industrial capitalist. Masses of laborers, crowded into the factory, are organized like soldiers.... They are slaves of the machine and the manufacturer. Instead of rising as industry progresses, they sink deeper and deeper into poverty....” • (History Common Core Periodic Assessment) • Say-Copy the quotation and the author’s name • Mean- What does the quotation mean? • Matter- Why does this quotation matter?

  9. Using it as a SDAIE Tool—Key Terms • Say—Define the terms • Mean---Paraphrase the definition into student friendly language • Matter—Why does this matter? Why is this event or idea important in the history of the world/United States? Why do you need to learn this concept? • Federalism • Mitochondria • Prepositional Phrase • Pythagoran Theorem

  10. Use it with political cartoons, art, videos, or science experiments Say- Literal description of what the cartoonist , artist, or filmmaker is depicting or what is happening during the science experiment Mean- What is the meaning of what we see? Matter- What is the significance of that?

  11. Science Common Core Periodic Assessment Exercising Caution: Intensive Athletic Activity Could Be Fatal to Those with Sickle Cell Trait---By Rose Eveleth At 5:30 A.M. on February 19, 2010, 20-year-old Bennie F. Abram started his first day of football practice as a junior at the University of Mississippi. Several hours later he collapsed and died. Later in 2010, 20-year-old JospinMilandu and 15-year-old Oliver Louis also died unexpectedly while working out with their teams. Autopsies of all three revealed one striking commonality: long, sickle-shaped blood cells that indicated they had at least one mutation for sickle-cell anemia. Say? Mean? Matter?

  12. Math Common Core Periodic Assessment Sample Determine the Area of the Finished Basement You want part of your basement converted into a home office. You will hire a contractor to do this work. Your budget for the contractor is $30,000. The contractor charges $50 per square foot to finish the basement for the home office. The finished work includes everything but the cost of flooring. Say? Mean? Matter?
