  1. The Common Core State Standard of Text Complexity: What does it really mean? How can we make it happen? District and School Transformation

  2. “The Common Core Standards hinge on students encountering appropriately complex textsat each grade level in order to develop the mature language skills and the conceptual knowledge they need for success in school and life” (p. 3). Text Complexity District and School Transformation

  3. If we need appropriate texts in the text complexity band, where do we find them? We could …. Choose an excerpt of text from Appendix B: Use available resources to determine the text complexity of other materials on our own. or…

  4. Quantitative Measures Ranges for Text Complexity Grade Bands * The K-1 suggested Lexile range was not identified by the Common Core State Standards and was added by Kansas. ** Taken from Accelerated Reader and the Common Core State Standards, available at the following URL: http://doc.renlearn.com/KMNet/R004572117GKC46B.pdf

  5. Determining Text Complexity A Four-step Process: Determine the quantitative measures of the text. Quantitative Qualitative Analyze the qualitative measures of the text. Reader and Task Reflect upon the reader and task considerations. Recommend placement in the appropriate text complexity band.

  6. Text Complexity Analysis and Recommended Placement Template for Text Complexity Analysis and Recommended Placement Form: http://www.ksde.org/Default.aspx?tabid=4605 The one-page template provides an opportunity to record the thinking involved in recommending the placement of a specific text into a text complexity band. Keeping a record of such analysis and thinking might be useful documentation in the case that any questions arise in the future. District and School Transformation
