COMMON CORE “MOVES”
• Short chunks of text• Multiple reads• Cycle of reading, thinking, talking, writing• Making meaning through structured conversation• Then . . . text dependent questions (make
students return to text)• Writing from sources• Writing and reading are integrated

Remember:
Assess for LEARNING!
![Page 13: EXPEDITIONARY LEARNING & COMMON CORE STANDARDS ~ Grades 3-5 ELA Modules Charlene Jordan, Dana Fulmer & Pat Krizan SCDN September 6, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dc55503460f94ab8791/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
When teachers assess “for learning,” they use the continuous flow of information about
student achievement to check on and advance learning. The result is that students keep learning and remain confident – they do
not give up in frustration or hopelessness! (Stiggins, 2002)
![Page 14: EXPEDITIONARY LEARNING & COMMON CORE STANDARDS ~ Grades 3-5 ELA Modules Charlene Jordan, Dana Fulmer & Pat Krizan SCDN September 6, 2012](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062716/56649dc55503460f94ab8791/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
How do teachers assess “for” learning?
Establish learning goals – use language students understand
Provide frequent and descriptive feedback Continuously adjust instruction based on
classroom assessments Engage students in regular self-assessment Actively involve students in communicating
with teachers and families about their progress
Become assessment literate!
