Kansas Common Core Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects

The Common Core State Standards Initiative 2 Beginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English- language arts (ELA) and mathematics standards. The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a state- led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO). www.corestandards.org http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605

January 2010 – An executive committee of ELA teachers from across the state is formed to review and provide feedback upon the various drafts of the Common Core Standards and begin crafting the “Kansas 15%,” the portion of the standards each state is allowed to develop individually. June 2010 – Final version of Common Core Standards released by CCSSO. July 2010 – The common core standards with the “Kansas 15%” were posted on the KSDE website for public comment and feedback. September 2010 – The Kansas Common Core Standards were presented to the Kansas State Board of Education with a recommendation for adoption. October 12, 2010 – The Kansas State Board of Education formally adopts the Kansas Common Core Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics. The Common Core Standards Timeline in Kansas 4

Kansas Advantages to Common Core Standards in ELA and Literacy 12 A focus on college and career readiness Inclusion of the four strands of English Language Arts: Reading Writing Listening and speaking Language The benefits of an integrated literacy approach – all Kansas educators have a shared responsibility for literacy instruction, regardless of discipline or content area. A focus on results rather than means – “the Standards leave room for teachers, curriculum developers, and states to determine how those goals should be reached and what additional topics should be addressed” (p. 4). Efficiencies of scale – common standards allow for greater collaboration among states in the areas of Professional development Resource development Teaching tools

College and Career Ready Students: Demonstrate independence in “the 4 C’s” Comprehend complex text Critique the craft used to create text Construct rich understandings of content Convey multifaceted meaning Build strong content knowledge through research and study Respond to varying demands of audience, purpose, task, and discipline in writing and speaking Adjust purpose Appreciate nuance Provide evidence as appropriate to the discipline Use technology and digital media strategically and capably to deepen encounters with text and content and to present and share information Come to understand other perspective and cultures Hallmarks of College and Career Readiness in English Language Arts and Literacy 13 Source: Adapted from “Students Who are College and Career Ready…” (page 7 of the Standards)
14
Key Advances for English Language Arts and Literacy 14Source: Reading Balance of literature and informational texts Text complexity Writing Emphasis on argument and informative/explanatory writing Writing about sources Standards for reading and writing in history/social studies, science, and technical subjects Complement rather than replace content standards in those subjects Responsibility of teachers in those subjects
15
Common Core Standards – English Language Arts K-12 The standards are organized into three main sections Each section is divided into strands Each strand features grade-level standards that are anchored in college and career readiness standards Standards for English Language Arts —and— Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects GRADES K-5 Standards for English Language Arts GRADES 6-12 Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects GRADES 6-12 Reading Writing Speaking & Listening Language Reading Writing Speaking & Listening Language Reading Writing

Key Ideas and Details: For example, in Grade 6, Cite textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. Craft and Structure: For example, in Grade 6, determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in text, including figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the impact of a specific word choice on meaning and tone. Integration of knowledge and Ideas: For example, in Grade 6, compare and contrast the experience of reading a story, drama, or poem to listening to or viewing an audio, video, or live version of the text, including contrasting what they “see” and “hear” when reading the text to what they perceive when they listen or watch. Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity: For example, in Grade 6, by the end of the year, read and comprehend literature, including stories, dramas, and poems, in the grades 6-8 text complexity band proficiently, with scaffolding as needed at the high end of the range. What does the Common Core Standards in ELA look like within the clusters for reading? 23Source:

26 Overview of Text Complexity The Common Core Standards are emphatic that students increasingly complex tests with increasing independence as they progress toward college and career readiness (Reading Standard #10). Text complexity is defined by: Qualitative 2.Qualitative measures – levels of meaning, structure, language conventionality and clarity, and knowledge demands Quantitative 1.Quantitative measures – readability and other scores of text complexity Reader and Task 3.Reader and Task – background knowledge of reader, motivation, interests, and complexity generated by tasks assigned Resources for Text Complexity are available: http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605
27
27 Appendix B Appendix B contains: Text samples to exemplify the level of text complexity, quality, and range the Standards require. (The list offers examples; it is not exhaustive.) Sample performance tasks that illustrate the application of the Standards to texts of sufficient complexity, quality, and range.

Kansas Additions for English Language Arts 29 Additions are largely points of emphasis and cohesion rather than entirely new elements. Emphasize: Social nature of literacy learning Meta-cognitive strategies Shared responsibility from all Kansas educators both in academic and career/technical contexts Culturally sensitive texts Media literacy Technical reading and writing skills Writing process 6-Trait writing terminology Document available at: http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605 (Document available at: http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605)
