2012-2013 Focus • Text Complexity • Close Reading • Integration of Reading and Writing
2013-2014 Writing Focus • The ability to write logical arguments based on substantive claims, sound reasoning, and relevant evidence is a cornerstone of the writing standards, with opinion writing—a basic form of argument—extending down into the earliest grades. Research—both short, focused projects (such as those commonly required in the workplace) and longer term in-depth research —is emphasized throughout the standards but is most prominently in the writing strand since a written analysis and presentation of findings is so often critical.
