  2. Description of Practice Performance Tasks: They can best be described as collections of questions and activities that are coherently connected to a single theme or scenario. These activities are meant to measure capacities such as depth of understanding, research skills, and complex analysis, which cannot be adequately assessed with selected- or constructed-response items. http://www.smarterbalanced.org/resources-events/faqs/

Why, or why not? After analyzing the sources, write a Letter to the Editor of the Lakeview Eagle Eye that addresses the question. Support your position with evidence from the texts and videos. If you have personal experiences or knowledge of the subject, you may include it in your essay as well. Be sure to address the opposing claims and show why your argument is more reasonable.

  7. Links to Common Core Instructional Shifts Regular practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary.

  8. Impact on Students Students are challenged to: Read texts differently. They must analyze for claim, bias, evidence. Research what have others said on important issues or topics, think critically to develop their own claims, consider how new learning might shape their actions. Participate effectively in collaborative discussions with a variety of peers, backing up opinions with evidence based arguments.

  9. Tips on Implementation(Lessons Learned) Weekly time for planning curriculum in collaborative groups is essential. Allow ample time (weeks) for teaching of performance tasks. Reconsider district pacing guides. Incorporate time for looking at student work. What can the student do, and what are next steps? How can the lessons be refined? Select engaging, real-world, current topics. Teaches will need access to more resources than state curriculum currently provides.
