In English Language Arts:• Incorporate into instruction more text
dependent questions that require students to read a text closely to determine what it says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it.
• Have students read more non-fiction and complex texts.
• Focus writing instruction substantially on writing to inform and structure an argument, not only writing stories.
In Mathematics:• Focus instruction more on the few key
topics emphasized in each grade in the standards.
• Emphasize problem-solving and real-world application.
• Rigor: In major topics pursue conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency and application with equal intensity.
