    Laura Cipriano, sent this to the CFF Coach listserv: Here's an opportunity for coaches and librarians to work together and create a powerful partnership for supporting and enriching the curriculum: check out http://ow.ly/5HkvW - School Librarians and the Common Core Standards (PA has adopted them!). Though it is a reference designed to show the relevance of CCS to a school library program, this online collection of VALUABLE resources in a LiveBinder by Carolyn Jo Starkey, a librarian from Alabama, may prove to be a helpful tool for all teachers in understanding and unpacking the standards in any of their respective areas. Enjoy! Laura Cipriano

  • much greater emphasis on nonfiction.
  • The Standards also expect students to write more expository prose.
  • use evidence to demonstrate their comprehension of texts and to read closely in order to make evidence-based claims
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • read carefully with their students and in many cases reread texts several times
  • cite evidence to justify statements
  • increasingly complex texts
  • teachers will have to choose materials that are appropriate for their grade level; states and organizations are now developing tools to help teachers evaluate complexity.
  • Expect to see teachers asking students to engage in small-group and whole-class discussions and evaluating them on how well they understand the speakers’ points.
  • the Common Core Standards are intended to focus on fewer topics and address them in greater depth
  • The Standards include criteria for literacy in history/social science, science, and technical subjects. This reflects a recognition that understanding texts in each of these subject areas requires a unique set of skills and that instruction in understanding
  • teachers should concentrate on the most important topics,
  • in depth
  • s an integral part of teaching history
  • say, a historical document
  • glean information from a document and make judgments about its credibility
  • The Common Core Standards, by contrast, are designed to build on students’ understanding by introducing new topics from grade to grade.
  • expected to learn content and skills and move to more advanced topics
  • hey suggest relationships between Standards
  • Students will need to know procedures fluently, develop a deep conceptual understanding, and be able to apply their knowledge to solve problems.
