Purpose and Use of the Documents

The Curriculum Guide represents an articulation of what students should know and be able

to do. The Curriculum Guide supports teachers in knowing how to help students achieve the

goals of the new standards and understanding each standard conceptually. It should be used

as a tool to assist teachers in planning and implementing a high quality instructional

program.

• The “At-a-Glance” provides a snapshot of the recommended pacing of instruction across

a semester or year.

• Learning targets (“I can” statements) and Criteria for Success (“I will” statements) have

been created by ISS teachers and are embedded in the Curriculum Guide to break down

each standard and describe what a student should know and be able to do to reach the

goal of that standard.

• The academic vocabulary or content language is listed under each standard. There are

30-40 words in bold in each subject area that should be taught to mastery.

4

• The unpacking section of the Curriculum Guide contains rich information and examples

of what the standard means; this section is an essential component to help both

teachers and students understand the standards.

Teachers will be asked to give feedback throughout the year to continually

improve their Curriculum Guides.

College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Reading

The K-12 standards on the following pages define what students should understand and be able to do by the end of each grade. They

correspond to the College and Career Readiness (CCR) anchor standards below by number. The CCR and grade-specific standards are

necessary complements – the former providing broad standards, the latter providing additional specificity – that together define the skills

and understandings that all students must demonstrate.

Key ideas and Details

1. Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when

writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text.

2. Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas.

3. Analyze how and why individuals, events, and ideas develop and interact over the course of a text.

Craft and Structure

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.

5. Analyze the structure of texts, including how specific sentences, paragraphs, and larger portions of the text (e.g. a section, chapter,

scene, or stanza) relate to each other and the whole.

6. Assess how point of view or purpose shapes the content and style of a text.

Integration of Knowledge and Ideas

7. Integrate and evaluate content presented in diverse media and formats, including visually and quantitatively, as well as in words.*

5

8. Delineate and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, including the validity of the reasoning as well as the relevance and

sufficiency of the evidence.

9. Analyze how two or more texts address similar themes or topics in order to build knowledge or to compare the approaches the

authors take.

Range of Reading and Level of Text Complexity

10. Read and comprehend complex literary and informational texts independently and proficiently.

* Please see “Research to Build and Present Knowledge” in writing and “Comprehension and Collaboration” in Speaking and Listening for additional standards relevant

to gathering, assessing, and applying information from print and digital sources.

College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Writing





Text Types and Purposes*

1. Write arguments to support claims in an analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient

evidence.

2. Write informative/explanatory texts to examine and convey complex ideas and information

clearly and accurately through the effective selection, organization, and analysis of content.

3. Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, well-chosen details, and well-

structured event sequences.

Production and Distribution of Writing

4. Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and

audience.

5. Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach.

7. Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects based on focused questions, demonstrating understanding of the subject

under investigation.

8. Gaither relevant information from multiple print and digital sources, assess the credibility and accuracy of each source, and integrate

the information while avoiding plagiarism.

9. Draw evidence from literacy or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research

Range of Writing

10. Write routinely over extended time frames (time for research, reflection, and revision) and shorter time frames (a single sitting or a

day or two) for a range of tasks, purposes, and audiences.

* These broad types of writing include many subgenres. See Appendix A for definitions of key writing types.’

College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Language





Conventions of Standard English

1. Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking.

2. Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English capitalization, punctuation, and spelling when writing.

Unpacking: What does this standard mean that a student will know and be able to do?

5.H.1.1 The student will understand:

Relationships and interactions between different cultural groups can have both positive and negative effects based upon their perceptions of

one another. Criteria can be used to critique the accuracy of historical sources.

The student will know:

How European explorers and Native American groups interacted/perceived each other.

The student will be able to:

Assess the validity of an historical source using specific criteria.

For example: For an accurate understanding of the relationship between Europeans and Native Americans, one might utilize multiple sources

from varying points of view.

Note: First, students will need to evaluate the relationship between Europeans and Native American within the context of leadership, beliefs and

fears. Next, students will need to assess the accuracy of available historical information about both groups.


Colonies develop distinct identities based upon physical location, cultural make-up of the population, and economic circumstances.


Social Studies

16


Daily life in the colonies varied based upon the cultural background of the inhabitants.

How and why the political and economic structure among the colonies varied.

For example: Six of the original colonies (New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and New Jersey) were started as proprietary

colonies. The purpose of these colonies was to make profit for stockholders back in England.


Conflict and/or war may influence a nation’s political, social, and economic development.

Conflict may result in compromise.

Battles influence the direction and outcome of wars.

War can transform society.


Social issues that were a source of conflict and how those issues impacted the development of the United States (through Reconstruction).

Economic issues were a source of conflict and those issues impacted the development of the United States (through Reconstruction).

For example: Colonists resented being taxed without the opportunity to represent themselves politically. As a result, colonists protested and

fought for independence from Great Britain eventually forming their own nation.

Political issues were a source of conflict and how those issues impacted the development of the United States (through Reconstruction).

For example: The institution and expansion of slavery sparked much political debate. As the nation grew, the political balance between free

and slave states was tested. Several compromises resulted from this conflict (e.g., the Missouri Compromise, the Compromise of 1850, and the

Kansas Nebraska Act).

Essential Vocabulary: explorer, American Indian, culture, European, inhabitants, Colonial life, reconstruction, compromise

Learning Targets: “I Can” Criteria For Success: “I Will” I can identify different cultural group’s positive and negative

effects on each other.

I can identify interactions between cultural groups.

I can critique the accuracy of historical sources.

I will validate historical resources using specific criteria.

I will understand why the political and economic structures among the

colonies vary.

I can understand how conflict and war may influence a nation’s

political, social, and economic development.

Geography and Environmental Literacy

Essential Standard: 5.G.1 Understand how human activity has and continues to shape the United States.

Clarifying Objectives: 5.G.1.1 Explain the impact of the physical environment on early settlements in the New World.

5.G.1.2 Explain the positive and negative effects of human activity on the physical environment of the United States, past and present.

5.G.1.3 Exemplify how technological advances (communication, transportation and agriculture) have allowed people to overcome geographic

limitations.

5.G.1.4 Exemplify migration within or immigration to the United States in order to identify push and pull factors (why people left/why people

came).


5. G.1.1 The student will understand:

Physical environments affect settlement patterns.

Physical environment can determine the way that people meet basic needs such as food and shelter.


Physical environment includes climate, landforms, soils, hydrology, vegetation, and animal life.

How the physical environment impacted settlement patterns and daily life in the New World.

For example: Jamestown was founded on a river. Initially, this seemed like a good spot because the harbor provided natural protection and a

supply of food. However, the colonists did not dig deep wells to secure a safe water supply. The area was infested with disease-carrying

mosquitoes and the men got sick. The physical environment was a contributing factor to Jamestown’s initial failure. Later; however, the

colonists learned to use the physical environment more successfully for the settlement.


Humans are capable of improving and/or exploiting their physical environment.


Historical examples of positive and negative effects of human activity on the United States.

For example: In 2010, a BP oil rig in the Gulf of Mexico exploded. Millions of gallons of oil gushed into the water for months. Animal habitats

were destroyed, water quality was affected, and fishing grounds were devastated. As a result of human error and excessive risk, the physical

environment was negatively impacted.


Social Studies

18

Note: In this objective, it is acceptable to use modern day examples along with those that fit within the time frame of the course.


Environmental challenges are often resolved through technological innovation.


Types of geographic limitations posed in various regions of the United States.

Examples of technological advances in America through Reconstruction (e.g., cotton gin, Erie Canal, steam engine, telegraph and other forms of

communication) and how they allowed people to overcome geographic limitations.

5.G.1.4 The student will understand:

Geographic, political and economic factors can influence settlement patterns.

Societal issues, political factors, like government instability, and economic factors often influence individual or group decisions to leave or

settle in a place. Migration can be forced or voluntary.

For example: Millions of Africans were forced to come to the Americas as slaves. They were captured and sold to slave traders. If they survived

the grueling Middle Passage, they faced harsh working and living conditions in the New World. Most never saw their homeland again.


Various examples of migration and immigration. People move for various reasons. Sometimes they are moving to get away from something

(push factors) and other times, they are moving toward something (pull factors). Push factors related to migration and immigration to the

United States.

For example: Many Europeans immigrated to the American colonies because they experienced religious persecution in their home country and

sought a more tolerant society. Pull factors related to migration and immigration to the United States.

For example: In the 19th century, many Americans moved west for better economic prospects. They were willing to make a long and

dangerous journey west for the possibility of making a better life for themselves and/or their family.

Essential Vocabulary: physical environment, technological innovation, migration, immigration

Learning Targets: “I Can” Criteria For Success: “I Will” 1. I can understand how the physical environment affects and

determines the settlement and basic needs of a population.

I will understand the physical environment (climate, landforms, soils,

hydrology, vegetation, and animal life) is used to meet basic needs.

A basic budget is a plan for how future income will be used.

A basic budget includes plans for both spending and saving.

Note: With this Clarifying Objective, it is appropriate to pair modern day examples of budgeting with those that fit within the time frame of the

course.

For example: Students might use an historical example such outfitting a wagon train for the Oregon Trail and/or their own personal budget to

exemplify the need for a spending and savings plan.
