  1. Is Your Library Common Core Aligned? Guest Speaker Jan Snyder - District Media Specialist, Oregon City Schools

  2. Common Core State Standards • Adopted by 45 states • Will be fully implemented fall of 2014 • Not a ‘how to’ but ‘end result’ • Layered complexity • http://www.corestandards.org/.

  3. What is the goal of CCSS? Glen Warren Vice President of Government Relations California School Library Association

  4. What is the Library’s Role? • Support classroom instruction • Team with teachers in joint instruction • Provide resources to support CCSS both in print and digitally • Be aware of the new ‘stretched’ Lexile ranges

  5. What is the big ‘hoopla’ about infomational text? • Critical reading • Specific skills • Percentage of time in informational text

  6. Standards Progression CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.1.9 Identify basic similarities in and differences between two texts on the same topic (e.g., in illustrations, descriptions, or procedures). (grade 1) CSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.3.9 Compare and contrast the most important points and key details presented in two texts on the same topic. (grade 3) CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.5.9 Integrate information from several texts on the same topic in order to write or speak about the subject knowledgeably. (grade 5) • Same standard across grade levels • Increased layers of complexity across grades

  14. Paired titles and CCSS corelations This set of paired texts explores black holes in space. Additional features include charts, diagrams, space photographs, a bibliography, index, glossary, timeline, additional resources and web sites. They meet a number of 5th grade information text standards. In particular Literacy.RI.5.4, 5 and 6 standards are met through comparing and contrasting the overall structure of concepts or information in two or more texts, the opportunity to analyze multiple accounts of the same topic, and standard RI.5.9 which integrates information from several texts on the same topic. Key Ideas and Details: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.5.2 Determine two or more main ideas of a text and explain how they are supported by key details; summarize the text. Craft and Structure: CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.5.4 Determine the meaning of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases in a text relevant to a grade 5 topic or subject area. CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.5.5 Compare and contrast the overall structure (e.g., chronology, comparison, cause/effect, problem/solution) of events, ideas, concepts, or information in two or more texts.
