Item Development: ELA/Literacy • Claims • ELA/Literacy: On track or college- and career-ready, supported by three major claims: reading complex texts (literature, informational texts, vocabulary); writing using and responding to sources (written expression, conventions); research • Item types focus on framing critical advances in the standards: • Reading complex texts • Reading a range of texts • Writing effectively when using and/or analyzing sources • Conducting and reporting on research • Speaking and listening • Using knowledge of language effectively when reading, writing, and speaking
3 Steps to Curriculum Success • PARCC Planning Guide • Pacing Guides • Curriculum Map
Important Points • This is the roadmap for Tier I instruction • Instruction is grouped in three-week clusters • Reading and writing must be related • All students must have opportunities to read appropriately complex text • Writing instruction must take place at all grade levels • Reading foundational skills should be solid by the end of third grade
