Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/ Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects
2
CCSS Design 2 Building on the strength of current state standards, the CCSS are designed to be: Focused, coherent, clear and rigorous Internationally benchmarked Anchored in college and career readiness* (CCR) Evidence and research based
3
Common Core State Standards Do Not Provide… A complete scope and sequence. A course outline. All the essential skills and knowledge students could have. Do… Outline the most essential skills and knowledge every student needs to master to be college and career-ready. Distribute responsibility for students’ literacy development. 3

Teacher and Student Skills As you view this presentation, identify the skills necessary for teachers and students to successfully implement the CCSS. Skills for: TeachersStudents

Guiding Question: How do you engage students in reading and responding to complex texts in your discipline?

2 nd Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text. 3 rd Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers. 4 th Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 5 th Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 9 Grade and Standard

5 th Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text. 6 th Cite textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 7 th Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 8 th Cite the textual evidence that most strongly supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 10 Grade and Standard

12 Overview of Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Reading Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects – Knowledge of domain-specific vocabulary – Analyze, evaluate, and differentiate primary and secondary sources – Synthesize quantitative and technical information, including facts presented in maps, timelines, flowcharts, or diagrams Writing Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects – Write arguments on discipline-specific content and informative/explanatory texts – Use of data, evidence, and reason to support arguments and claims – Use of domain-specific vocabulary
