  1. ELA STRANDS

  2. Students "learn to read" before they "read to learn".

  3. Objective-CCSS ELA: To acquire a better knowledge of understanding the ELA CCSS Strands. • Reading • Writing • Speaking • and Listening • Language

  4. Balanced Literacy

  5. Who is responsible for which portion of the Standards? A single K–5 section lists standards for reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language across the curriculum, reflecting the fact that most or all of the instruction students in these grades receive comes from one teacher. Grades 6–12 are covered in two content area–specific sections, the first for the English Language Arts teacher and the second for teachers of history/social studies, science, and technical subjects. Each section uses the same CCR anchor standards but also includes grade-specific standards tuned to the literacy requirements of the particular discipline(s).

  6. I am If someone ask you who is responsible for teaching the strands: All Teachers.

  7. What is Common Core? These standards define the knowledge and skills students should have within their K-12 education careers so that they will graduate high school able to succeed in entry-level, credit-bearing academic college courses and in workforce training programs. The standards:* Are aligned with college and work expectations; * Are clear, understandable and consistent;* Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills;* Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards;* Are informed by other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society; and* Are evidence-based.

  8. CCSS There are only two sets of Common Core State Standards: one for Mathematicsand one for English Language Arts and Literacy in the Content Areas. Note that in the elementary grades, the same set of standards apply to English Language Arts and the Content Areas, whereas at the secondary level, a separate set of standards specific to the Content Areas are included. “The state-led effort to create standards that will prepare students for college and the workplace was coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices and the Council of Chief State School Officers. It resulted in TWO sets of grade-specific standards: The English Language Arts and Literacy standards are divided into an elementary section and a secondary section, with three Appendices. You’ll notice that at the 6-12 level, Literacy in the Content Areas is a separate section with separate standards for the Content Areas.”

  9. ELA Common Core Standards Framework The major areas or disciplines of study within each content area. Strands “What” students should know and be able to do at each grade level and band. Domains The main focus of the content within each strand. Standard Statements by Grade Level Standards Statements by Grade Level Standards Statements by Grade Level

  10.

  13. These strands serve to unite all literacy components within English Language Arts.

  14. Each strand is represented in each grade level and builds on itself as the child goes through school, increasing in complexity towards the goal of college and career readiness.

  15. A comprehensive K–5section with four strands • Reading strand (includes Foundational Skills) • Writing strand • Speaking and Listening strand • Language strand • Two content area-specific sections for grades 6-12 with four strands • • ELA • Reading strand • Writing strand • Speaking and Listening strand • Language strand • • History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects • Reading strand • Writing strand

  26. As we already know The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) divides English Language Arts into four strands K-12: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening and Language.

  27. There are 32 CCR anchor standards. This is what students should be able to do by the end of Grade 12, so they should be the “anchor” for what happens from PK to graduation. They are broken up as follows:

  28. Anchor Standards The College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards define the broad expectations across the contents and grade levels students must meet to be prepared for college and/or the work place. There are ten anchor standards in Reading; ten in Writing; six in Speaking and Listening; and, six in Language that are consistent across the grades and content areas.

  29. Each strand has a set of College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards (CCR)

  30. A CCR anchor standard is a skill that high school graduates should have in order to be ready for entry into the world of work or postsecondary education. An anchor standard is an answer to the question, “What should a 21st century diploma holder be able to do? Whether you teach kindergarten or 12th grade, an anchor standard is the target. The anchor standards are the fundamental skills that we want students to have when they graduate from our public schools. They are rigorous. They are also aligned with what colleges and workplaces expect students to be able to do.

  31. 10 Reading CCR Anchor Standards • Key Ideas and Details (R.CCR.1, R.CCR.2, R.CCR.3) • Craft and Structure (R.CCR.4, R.CCR.5, R.CCR.6) • Integration of Knowledge and Ideas (R.CCR.7, R.CCR.8, R.CCR.9) • Range and Level of Text Complexity (R.CCR.10) • 10 Writing CCR Anchor Standards • Text Types and Purposes (W.CCR.1, W.CCR.2, W.CCR.3) • Production and Distribution of Writing (W.CCR.4, W.CCR.5, W.CCR.6) • Research to Build and Present Knowledge (W.CCR.7, W.CCR.8, W.CCR.9) • Range of Writing (W.CCR.10)

  32. 6 Speaking and CCR Listening Anchor Standards • Comprehension and Collaboration (SL.CCR.1, SL.CCR.2, SL.CCR.3) • Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas (SL.CCR.4, SL. CCR.5, SL.CCR.6) • 6 Language CCR Anchor Standards • Conventions of Standard English (L.CCR.1, L.CCR.2) • Knowledge of Language (L.CCR.3) • Vocabulary Acquisition and Use (L.CCR.4, L.CCR.5, L.CCR.6)

  33. In Reading Informational Text the standards at each grade level are the same. They describe what students need to know and be able to do at each grade level in order to reach the College and Career Readiness level by the end of 12th grade.

  34. K-5 6-12

  35. Key Features of the Standards Reading: Text complexity and the growth of comprehension The Reading standards place equal emphasis on the sophistication of what students read and the skill with which they read. The standards increase in complexity from grade to grade. Whatever they are reading, students will show the ability to discern more from and make fuller use of text, including making an increasing number of connections among ideas and between texts, considering a wider range of textual evidence, and becoming more sensitive to inconsistencies, ambiguities, and poor reasoning in texts.

  36. A three-part model for determiningthe difficulty of a particular text

  37. AppendicesA, B, and C Appendix A contains supplementary material on reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language as well as a glossary of key terms. Appendix B consists of text exemplars illustrating the complexity, quality, and range of reading appropriate for various grade levels with accompanying sample performance tasks. Appendix C includes annotated samples demonstrating at least adequate performance in student writing at various grade levels.

  38. The CCSS has a specific Coding System for each strand. Knowing this coding will be helpful when you are aligning your lesson plans to the new standards. • RL = Reading for Literature • RI = Reading for Information • RF = Reading Foundations • W = Writing • SL = Speaking and Listening • L = Language Coding System

  39. CCSS Coding W.4.3 Writing, Grade 4, Standard 3 RF.2.4 Reading Foundations, Grade 2, Standard 4 L.10.3a Language, Grade 10, Standard 3a Note that there are sub-standard statements for Language (3a). This is also the case for Writing as well

  40. Examples of What the Standards Require • Emphasize speaking and listening skills as an avenue to evaluate, integrate and present information from many sources. • Call for increased use of technology/multi-media to gather and publish information.

  41. Note!!! Common Core State Standards do not provide… • A complete scope and sequence • A course outline • All essential skills and knowledge • students could have • Does not cover how teachers should teach
