For the Teacher

What is Ready™ New York CCLS Practice?

Ready™ New York CCLS Practice is a review program for the Common Core Learning Standards for English Language Arts. By completing this book, students develop mastery of the Common Core Learning Standards for Reading, Writing, and Language. To develop this mastery, students read a variety of passages and answer comprehension questions that correlate to the Common Core Learning Standards.

How does Ready New York CCLS Practice correlate to the Common Core Learning Standards for English Language Arts?

The test has 73 questions (63 multiple choice, 8 short response, and 2 extended response) that address the Reading for Literature and Reading for Information standards, which comprise the Reading strand of the CCLS. Extended-response questions correlate to standards from the Reading, Writing, and Language strands of the CCLS.

Ready New York CCLS Practice includes stories and articles from well-known publications, distinguished passages from the public domain, and sharply crafted original works. Each passage in Ready New York CCLS Practice is consistent with the complexity and rigor that the CCLS requires of literary and informational texts. Ready New York CCLS Practice includes literary passages, informational passages, and paired passages.

How should I use Ready New York CCLS Practice?

This book can be used in various ways. To simulate the test-taking procedures of the New York State Testing Program, have students complete each part of the practice test in one sitting on three consecutive days. (See the timetable to the right.) After students have completed the entire practice test, correct and review answers with them. Prior to administration of the statewide English Language Arts assessment, use this test to evaluate progress and identify students’ areas of weakness.

How do I introduce my students to Ready New York CCLS Practice?

Provide each student with a student book and two sharpened No. 2 pencils with a good eraser. Have students read the introduction on the inside front cover of the student book. Tell students to pay particular attention to the tips for answering multiple-choice questions.

Before having students begin work, inform them of the amount of time they will have to complete each part of the practice test. You may choose either to follow or to adapt the following timetable for administering the practice test:

Day One Book 1 (questions 1–42) 70* minutes

Day TwoBooks 2 & 3

(questions 43–67)70* minutes

Day Three Book 4 (questions 68–73) 50* minutes

* Each Testing Day will be scheduled to allow 90 minutes for completion.

Where do students record their answers?

Students record their answers to the multiple-choice questions on the answer form at the back of the student book. Have students remove the answer form and fill in the personal information section. Ensure that each student knows how to fill in the answer bubbles. Remind students that if they change an answer, they should fully erase their first answer. A completed answer form is on page 4 of this teacher guide.

Students will complete the short- and extended-response questions in their student book.

What is the correction procedure?

Correct and review the answers to multiple-choice questions as soon as possible after students have completed the practice test. As you review the answers, explain concepts that students may not fully understand. Encourage students to discuss the thought process they used to answer the questions. When answers are incorrect, help students understand why their reasoning was faulty. Students sometimes answer incorrectly because of a range of misconceptions about the strategy required to answer the question. Discussing why the choices are incorrect will help students understand the correct answer.

Use the 2-Point Rubric—Short Response (page 7) to score the short-response questions. Use the New York State Grade 6–8 Expository Writing Evaluation Rubric (pages 8 and 9) to score the extended-response questions (questions 67 and 73).

If you wish to familiarize students with the use of a rubric, provide students with a copy. Discuss the criteria with them. Then show students some responses that you have evaluated using the rubric. Explain your evaluations.

How should I use the results of Ready New York CCLS Practice?

Ready New York CCLS Practice provides a quick review of a student’s understanding of the Common Core Learning Standards for English Language Arts. It can be a useful diagnostic tool to identify standards that need further study and reinforcement. Use the Ready™ New York CCLS Practice Answer Key and Correlations, beginning on page 12, to identify the standard that each question has been designed to evaluate. For students who answer a question incorrectly, provide additional instruction and practice through Ready New York CCLS Instruction. For a list of the Common Core Learning Standards that Ready New York CCLS Practice assesses, see the Common Core Learning Standards Coverage by the Ready™ Program chart beginning on page 10.

Sample Short-Response Answers

64. Student book page 39

People who believe the legend of Pocahontas claim that Pocahontas, a princess, saved the heroic John Smith from certain death. The author of the passage states that Pocahontas’s tribe had no princesses, and he notes that a young girl such as Pocahontas likely would not have been allowed into the longhouse after Smith’s capture. Because of this, she couldn’t have been the one to “save” him.

65. Student book page 40

The author supports this line of reasoning by describing how the legend of Pocahontas makes for “a good story.” He explains that many Virginians had wanted a story to help explain how the state came to be, and he reveals the ways in which the legend of Pocahontas appealed to these people. In the legend, John Smith becomes a hero, and Pocahontas’s actions create a sense of drama and romance.

66. Student book page 40

In the passage, John Smith hopes to portray Pocahontas as someone who was so struck by John Smith that she felt the need to save him. Smith describes how Pocahontas begs the other members of the tribe not to kill him, and toward the end of the passage, he states that his stories of “the love of Pocahontas” helped comfort the Jamestown settlers.

Sample Extended-Response Answer

67. Student book page 42

In “The (Untrue) Story of John Smith and Pocahontas,” the author portrays Smith’s capture as something that was likely scary to Smith, but probably not dangerous. The author notes Powhatan most likely captured Smith to perform a ritual “meant to ceremonially adopt the Englishman,” thereby bringing Smith into Powhatan’s family. The author states that “the paramount chief hoped to bring him into the family, to claim the Englishman’s power as his own.”

In A General History of Virginia, Smith’s own version of events is very different. Smith, in his retelling, states that he was taken into the longhouse where he was greeted by 200 people dressed as follows: “their heads and shoulders were painted red, many of their heads were bedecked with white bird feathers, and they each wore a great chain of white beads about their necks.” They presented him with a feast, but when the feast was over, the tribesmen—led by Powhatan—were preparing to beat him when Pocahontas begged them to stop. He goes on to say that “she put his head in her arms and laid her own upon his to save him from death.” According to Smith, Pocahontas’s actions caused Powhatan and his men to spare Smith’s life.

In both accounts, Smith is afraid and views the events as “fearsome”; however, in Walters’s account, Powhatan and his men likely didn’t mean Smith any harm.

Sample Short-Response Answers

68. Student book page 46

The author’s purpose is to give facts about a valuable invention and its impact on diving. She begins by describing the way the Aqua-Lung was invented and how it was different from previous underwater breathing devices, in that it delivered air only when the diver breathed. She then gives information about diving devices that came before the Aqua-Lung (such as Le Prieur’s device that released air continuously) to show that the Aqua-Lung was an important invention, but it wasn’t the only device that made an impact on diving.

69. Student book page 46

Paragraph 2 outlines Cousteau’s career accomplishments in addition to his inventions. He was a marine scientist and an environmentalist. Cousteau wrote many books and produced many films about the ocean. He also led expeditions to explore the ocean aboard his ship, Calypso.

70. Student book page 51

We can infer that the families have been friends for a while. Alexandra has helped Carl’s father many times. Carl feels guilty for leaving Alexandra during the drought. Alexandra cares for Carl. She cries when she learns he is leaving. She also wants the best for Carl, and says she knows he can do great things.

71. Student book page 51

The author uses details that describe the setting as beautiful and pleasant, but also dry and unyielding. These details include smells, such as the description of Alexandra’s garden that “smelled of drying vines”. The author also uses visual details, such as the description of the rows of flowers and other garden items. Other sensory details include the feel of the warm “sun-baked” earth as Carl and Alexandra sat down to talk, and the feel of “the warm sun pleasant on one’s back and shoulders.”

72. Student book page 52

The author uses diaries, letters, and memoirs to show what pioneer life was like for women. He quotes those letters, so the stories are written in first person. The women tell their own stories. We get to read their feelings and thoughts firsthand. The stories are more real and authentic because they are told by the actual people who lived them. If the story did not have these quotes, the stories might seem made-up or less real.

Sample Extended-Response Answer

73. Student book page 54

Both passages treat the pioneer experience similarly by describing the hardships of pioneer life. In O Pioneers!, some of the characters are in debt and their crops are failing. Many people are moving away to large cities so they don’t have to farm anymore. The author uses vivid detail to describe how dry the land is: so dry that Alexandra shouldn’t even use precious water to grow flowers. In “Women of the Lone Prairie,” pioneer life is also described as difficult. Pioneers had to fight fires and locusts. A single hailstorm could destroy an entire crop. These farmers were also struggling to make a living.

The two passages treat the pioneer experience in some different ways, as well. Alexandra and Carl in O Pioneers! are neighbors and seem to be good friends. In “Women of the Lone Prairie,” though, the pioneers were isolated. One woman had to give birth alone at her house because she did not have any neighbors or a doctor nearby.

Even given these differences, O Pioneers! seems to give an accurate portrayal of pioneer life. It does not seem to gloss over the fact that many parts of pioneer life were difficult, and in fact shows what was probably a very realistic event: a pioneer family giving up and returning to the city.
