Pieces Form the Whole

Participants will gain an understanding of the integration of standards, explore lessons, and create their own.

TWEAKING

Look-Alikes

Sometimes two things may look the same, but with close inspection, they are quite different!

CCSS (2010)

RI.3.6 Distinguish their own point of view from that of the author of a text.

NCSCoS (2004)

Grade 3 2.04 Identify and interpret elements of fiction and nonfiction and support by referencing the text to determine the: point of view (author and character)

CCSS (2010)RI.7.1 Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.

NCSCoS (2004)Grade 7 2.01 Respond to informational materials that are read, heard, and/or viewed by: drawing inferences and/or conclusions determining importance of information.

“While the Standards delineate specific expectations in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language, each standard need not be a separate focus for instruction and assessment. Often, several standards can be addressed by a single rich task.”

Integrating the Standards

CCSS pg. 5

“Vocabulary” in the Standards

R.CCR.4 - Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a text, including determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and analyze how specific word choices shape meaning or tone.

L.CCR.3 – Apply knowledge of language to understand how language functions in different contexts, to make effective choices for meaning or style, and to comprehend more fully when reading or listening.

L.CCR.4 - Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases by using context clues, analyzing meaningful word parts, and consulting general and specialized reference materials, as appropriate.

“Vocabulary” in the Standards

L.CCR.5 - Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings.

L.CCR.6 - Acquire and use accurately a range of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases sufficient for reading, writing, speaking, and listening at the college and career readiness level; demonstrate independence in gathering vocabulary knowledge when encountering an unknown term important to comprehension or expression.

“Vocabulary” in the Standards

SL.CCR.3 – Evaluate a speaker’s point of view, reasoning, and use of evidence and rhetoric.

SL.CCR.6 - Adapt speech to a variety of contexts and communicative tasks, demonstrating command of formal English when indicated or appropriate.

Color-coding the Anchors

• Using highlighters, find the possible integrations across the standards….

• Think about these categories:EvidenceOrganization - development of ideas - structureComparing texts - integration of ideasMedia Research

Create an Integrated Task

•Cite explicit textual evidence as well as draw inferences about the Bird and the Tortoise that support your analysis of what it means to be courageous.

•R.CCR.1 Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inference from it, cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text.

Culminating Activity

Lesson Review

• Choose a lesson to review on the Wiki.

• Use the Guided Review of Lessons document to record your observations.

Guiding Questions

• How does this lesson address different learners?

• How are text dependent questions used?

• Where do you see evidence of instructional shifts?

• How does this lesson address vocabulary?

• Why is this text a good match for this lesson?

• Where are the standards addressed and what integration is evident?

A Plan for Lesson Design

• Use the text you chose yesterday to consider the pieces of a lesson.

• Use the information you recorded on the Guided Review of Lessons, Participant Notes, and the Lesson Planning Notes and Ideas handout to begin designing a lesson.
