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:

Evidence

Organization - development of ideas - structure

Comparing texts - integration of ideas

Media

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.
