  1. Meeting the Language Demands of the Common Core in Family and Consumer Sciences Ruth E. Dohner, Ed.D., CFCS OATFCS Annual Conference, 2014, Hilton Easton The Ohio State University College of Education and Human Ecology Family and Consumer Sciences Education

  2. What is Common Core? • Standards communicate what is expected of students at each grade level. • English Language Arts Common Core standards are integrated in all other content areas. • Guides College and Career Readiness • Created by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices, Council of Chief State School Officers • Forty-five states, the District of Columbia, four territories, and the DOD have adopted the Common Core Standards. http://www.corestandards.org/

  3. Common Core Standards Language Demands • Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a text, • determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and • analyze how specific word choices shape meaning or tone. • Acquire and use accurately general academic and domain-specific words and phrases, • sufficient for reading, writing, speaking, and listening at the college and career readiness level; • demonstrate independence in gathering vocabulary knowledge when considering a word or phrase important to comprehension or expression.

  5. Academic Language Demands in Common Core The specific way academic language is used by students to participate in learning tasks through reading, writing, speaking, listening, thinking to show understanding. • Academic Vocabulary • Structure • Function • Discourse

  6. Language Demands Academic Vocabulary: Specialized and Technical Structure: Grammar, Syntax, Signal Words, Frames and Templates Function: Action Verbs, classroom “doing” Discourse: Way to discuss (controversy), Explain or present…

  7. Language Demand Purpose for a Lesson: Examples • Academic Vocabulary: Recognize, define, and write and describe aloud terms and abbreviations in a recipe. • Structure: Uncover the conventions of a recipe to retell the recipe sequence using signal words. • Function: Use compare and contrast signal words to write a summary of a Venn. • Discourse: Use complete sentences to describe global elements of a recipe.

  8. Language Demand: Vocabulary • Specialized : Words with various meanings – natural… fresh… whole… plants or animals • Technical: FCS specific vocabulary Use Vocabulary Activities that are Context Specific, Not Front Loaded • Vocabulary Snapshot • Draw it! Define it! Know It! • Defining Vocabulary for Deep Meaning

  9. Vocabulary Snapshots: Context specific Directions: Write the vocabulary word, your definition, and draw a “snapshot” that represents the meaning of the word. Developed by Dr. Dianna McCune at www.TheHow2Doc.com

  12. Academic Vocabulary: Specialized and Technical Got it! Almost there! Teach me more! Thumbs Up Sideways Down

  13. Language Demand: Structure • Signal Words: If… then…; because …; First…, next, finally…; between… • Frames: sentences using key vocabulary and functional words and phrases that show comparison, sequencing, description, cause and effect… • Templates: Mold, guide, pattern for consistency and organization. • Syntax:set of conventions for organizing words, symbols and phrases • Grammar: Complete sentences, punctuation…

  26. Vegetable Memory Photos Students will bring in photos 3X3 inch photos of vegetables in the growing state and as it is eaten, “real food”. They will post on the board and there are no duplicates. Once the cards are developed they become a memory game. Everyone in the room must play the game during the week. As they play they must label the vegetable and description of how it grows and how we might eat it (raw, salad, steamed) as real food. This strategy was created by Brooke Dionisio, Student Teacher, The Ohio State University

  27. Vegetable Memory Card Game The Vegetable Memory Game was produced by Brooke Scheiderer, FCS ED student The Ohio State University

  28. Name That Vegetable… and How It Grows
