Alphabet Review
1. Use the Alphabet Review (p. 4) as a learning aid.
2. Refer/match each letter to CCSS terms that you learn during this day’s session.
3. Use the ABC Review to keep track of terms (new vocabulary), recording them by the appropriate letters (Example: “A” = Alphabet Review).

1. Jigsaw these six reading assignments on the Common Core State Standards:
#1 page 3#2 page 4#3 page 5#4 page 6#5 page 7#6 page 8
2. Read your section silently as an individual.
3. Take notes from your reading, marking at least three important facts or themes.
4. Report back to your team. Have each member of the team report out on his/her assigned section.
5. Complete your notes.

Five Key Ideas about Common Core, the
Blueprint1. Outline the most essential skills and knowledge every student needs to master to be college and career ready.
2. Distribute responsibility for students’ literacy development through grade 12.
3. Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills.
4. Written so that all students are prepared to succeed in the global economy and society.
5. Are evidence and/or research based.

Anchor Standards for Reading
Task: PART A. Read the CCR Reading
standards on p. 35. Discuss the major concepts in each
CCR category. Complete the chart provided with
your thinking on p. 5. PART B. Read the paragraph in
italics on the right of page 35. Highlight key words and phrases. Discuss your thinking about range

Literary Text
Literary text is a narrative form of text and can be viewed as fiction, nonfiction, or poetry.
Fiction: Text that is imagined more than real and its main purpose is to entertain and engage readers. Examples include traditional literature, fantasy, science fiction, realistic fiction, and historical fiction.
Nonfiction: Text that contains ideas, facts, and principles related to the natural and social world. Broad enough to include nature writing, travel writing, biographies, memoirs, essays.
Poetry: Text that is more compact writing as well as imaginative and artistic.

Analyzing Texts That Have Appropriate Challenges for Students
Guiding Questions:• How do you make informed
decisions about choosing appropriate texts for students to read?
• How do you insure that all students are exposed to texts that are appropriate for them to read as well as exposing them to increasing text complexity?33
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Activity: Investigating Text Complexity Dimensions
Jigsaw Go to Appendix A, pages 4-10. Assign each of the three
dimensions to your table partners (qualitative, quantitative, reader & task).
Read the descriptions of each dimension and note key concepts in the graphic organizer provided (p. 7).
Share your key concepts from readings and your thoughts.
Discuss the importance of each and how to balance all three when selecting texts for students.
34

• Note reference in the CCSS to the Lexile Framework in pages 7-8, Appendix A.
• Page 8 in Appendix A provides a chart with new Lexile ranges aligned to CCR expectations.
• More information is included from http://lexile.com/

complexity, quality and range The text exemplars provided on
the CCSS list inAppendix B are …• Examples only• Not required reading
Exemplars provided are LIMITED in …• Including multicultural examples• Current young adult literature
(that students would find relevant and meaningful) 37

Reading Standards: Foundational Skills (K-5)
The Foundational Skills are necessary and important components of an effective comprehensive reading program which is designed to develop proficient readers with the capacity to comprehend a wide variety of text materials.
Foundational skills foster understanding and knowledge of:
Concepts of print Alphabetic principle Other basic conventions of English
writing system 38

Day 2: Your Questions
How do we address all? How will new standards help
motivate students toward further success?
How do I motivate my students to want to work harder?
Rubrics for lessons? How to present in classroom? What about current standards—do
we throw them away? Is there any book list?
58
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
How do the standards break down, so that we can be sure to meet each standards during the school year?
When will NM officially start to use these standards?
How do we get teachers to build units and get away from [dependence] on textbooks?

Putting the CCSS into the classroom
An assignment or assessment based on the Common Core literacy standards
Clear, measurable goal for learningCompleted as a result of scaffolded instruction over the course of several days or even 1-2 weeks.
60
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Create Clear Learning Objectives tied to CCSS
Ask, “What should my students know and what should they be able to do with what they know?”
Create an objective that is tied to what they should learn and the specific kind of writing they will use to show what they have learned.

SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Standard: RI.8.8: Delineate and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, assessing whether the reasoning is sound and the evidence is relevant and sufficient; recognize when irrelevant evidence is introduced.
62
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Requirements for Assignment targeted to
CCSS1. Read, analyze, and comprehend texts as specified by the Common Core. 2. Write products (as specified by the Common Core) focusing on persuasion, informational/explanatory, and narrative. 3. Apply Common Core literacy standards to content (ELA, social studies, and/or science).
63
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Assignment Example.
*Aligns with Core Standards.*Connects reading and writing instruction to “lead with literacy” as all teachers’ responsibility.* Combines literacy and content instruction in rigorous academic reading and writing tasks for college/work success.*Encourages choice.

Examples of Assignment with Differentiation
Can there be true community in the work place? After reading The Prologue to Canterbury Tales and assigned informational texts, write a persuasive essay that addresses the question and support your position with evidence from the text. L2 Be sure to acknowledge competing views. L3 Give examples from past or current events to illustrate your position.
Making instructional/planning decisions about:
Reading text types/genre Written products Content Rigor level
65
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Write an assignment to build a foundation.
Work in twos or threes.
Using the argumentation
assignment handout (p. 28 ),
write a prompt that you might
use with students.
Be prepared to share your
task with the whole group.66

What are some strategies for scaffolding instruction? • Generating and answering
questions. Actively processing text to form questions has been shown to yield a 23 percentile-point gain on standardized reading tests.
Cubing Q Notes Reciprocal Notes
67
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
• Summarizing and note taking. Intentionally instructing students in how to differentiate between the main idea of the text and peripheral information has been shown to yield a 34 percentile-point gain on standardized reading tests.

68

• Identifying similarities and differences. Students who are taught to compare, classify, and analyze information using metaphors and analogies score 45 percentile points higher than their peers without this strategy.
Open Compare-Contrast
69
SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
• Sentence combining. Teaching students to construct more complex and sophisticated sentences by combining two or more basic sentences has been shown to yield a 19 percentile-point gain on standardized writing and reading tests.

SouthernRegionalEducationBoard
Combine the following into one sentence:
I adopted a plan. The plan I adopted was the most
successful of my plans. The plan was of making friends. The plan was making friends with
little white boys. I met the white boys on the street.
Combine all parts into one, coherent, correctly punctuated sentence.
