[MOSAIC] Common Core

[Ronald Borchert]

I am just curious to see what other schools/districts are doing about the
Common Core Standards.  My state (Wyoming) has adopted the Common Core.  In
my district, kindergarten through second grade will teach from the common
core in language arts and math beginning next school year.  Three through
sixth grade will follow.

Thank you!

[MOSAIC] Common core

[Williams, Kim]

I have been working on how to apply the reading "thinking strategies" to second 
grade core standards. Has this already been completed or could anyone advise 
where to go for help?

Thanks

[MOSAIC] Common core

[Brenda Keller]

In California, at least in my district, we are looking at the common core 
standards, but we haven't started using them yet.  I would like to hear from 
teachers who have transitioned to ccss.  What do your lessons look like for 
reading grouos? How has it changed your comprehension lessons? Thanks for any 
insights.

[MOSAIC] Common Core

[write]

I just got Lucy Calkins book today.  I'm not a big fan of hers, but I 
will read the book word for word. 

I understand that CCSS is about what to teach, but when I (sometimes) 
don't understand what the standard means, I'm not sure what to teach.  
I'm also not sure how exacting the standards will be. 


What does PARCC stand for?
Jan


Quoting "Palmer, Jennifer" :
Have you read Lucy Calkins book Pathways to the Common Core? I got a 
lot of my

questions answered by reading it. Common Core is not a how-to manual... It's
what to teach- not how to teach it. Calkins keeps it real-- and 
research based. 
A great read for perspective-- common core has some good aspects-- in 
fact the
only area I'm worried about is text complexity-- but Calkins does a 
great job in

explaining how good teachers should think about that. ( as always-- it's the
tests that are worrisome--still waiting on the PARCC...)

The standard you quoted is more about analysis and less about the 
Bible. We want

our students to analyze cultural references in current texts and consider how
the author uses/changes/adjusts material to make his or her point. 

By common law-- you can teach about religion in public schools-- but 
you can't
proselytize... You can't try to convert kids to a religion. Kids are 
a captive
audience and we as teachers are agents of the state-- which is why 
the supreme
court does not allow us to lead prayer in school. its like the state 
forcing a

religion on kids. I don't want to get into whether or not prayer should or
should not be allowed--I am just explaining how I understand Supreme Court
rulings on this issue dictate what we can or cant do. Basically, you 
can share
religious texts... Even engage in close reading of them... But you 
are treating
them as a cultural artifact in the school setting.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[melody pinkston]

My district is rolling out Common Core math K-2 next year, with 3-6 later. The 
Arizona State DOE isn't unpacking Language Arts Common Core Standards until the 
1st of June, and school's out on the 3rd. So, my guess is that the District 
will roll those out K-3 next year.

Aloha from Maui, Hawai'i!  Our state is implementing Common Core for k-2 this 
coming year and 3-5 to follow in about two years, I think.  
BTW...what do you all think about Common Core?  Personally, I like it.  It is 
more specific than what we, presently, have.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[John L. Perry]

Seems to me that more specific = worse, not better.

The more specific standards are, the further away you get from overarching
concepts that tie everything together and help students make sense of the
world around them, and the closer you get to prescribing specific facts to
be taught to the detriment of an overall ability to identify
patterns/structures/relationships/systems that put all the facts into a
comprehensible bigger picture. This is already the biggest flaw in our
education system, so more "specific" standards will only serve to aggravate
the problem. It's the wrong way to go in a world where exponential change
calls for citizens who can recognize the bigger picture and harness that
change for the greater good. 

I give full credit for these ideas to my much wiser friend Marion Brady. (

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

I couldn't agree with you and Marion Brady more. The Common Core forgets 
(deliberately and conveniently?) that we are dealing with individual children 
and not the commodity they are being made out to be. Also, make no mistake 
about it, the Common Core means more testing. We need to fight it.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Sally Thomas]

I absolutely agree with both of you and Marion.  That is the big flaw of the
notion of standards, especially this latest iteration of standards.  It puts
our eyes on the standards and not the children we teach.  Of course, as
professionals, we should have a good feel for where development takes
children over time, but specifying it in particulars and also be particular
ages/grade levels can be hugely detrimental to the children we teach.  And
as Elisa says, it seems always to be followed by testing which is its own
huge problem.  I'm always worried when teachers don't trust their own
knowledge and professionalism as well.
Sally

PS I am curious about the line on sender - from mosaic-bounces.  I just got
two messages bounced back to me.  Not entirely clear why this is happening.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Lise]

Did anyone look at the exemplars for middle school literature? I did. Among
the gems: Little Women (really?- my Hispanic 8th grade boys will love this
one), Tom Sawyer, Call of the Wild, Charge of the Light Brigade. Do the
creators of these standards think there hasn't been any literature worth
reading during the past 100 years?  

How many of you are aware of the fact that Bill Gates' fingerprints and his
millions given to his foundations are all over these standards? Once again
we follow like sheep, not fighting back or challenging the system that would
love to privatize public education.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[kaui norton]

Thank you for your thoughts. I do see your point. I suppose I should say that, 
although standards teaching may not be the best solution to our ongoing 
struggles to educate, it is, nevertheless, here to stay.  At least, till the 
powers that be change their minds again!

Seems to me that more specific = worse, not better.

The more specific standards are, the further away you get from overarching
concepts that tie everything together and help students make sense of the
world around them, and the closer you get to prescribing specific facts to
be taught to the detriment of an overall ability to identify
patterns/structures/relationships/systems that put all the facts into a
comprehensible bigger picture. This is already the biggest flaw in our
education system, so more "specific" standards will only serve to aggravate
the problem. It's the wrong way to go in a world where exponential change
calls for citizens who can recognize the bigger picture and harness that
change for the greater good.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Ellen Schwartz]

Lise,

Thank you for bringing up these important points. There is 
information out there about who is behind the Common Core and what 
they stand to gain, but that's not what's carried in the mainstream 
press.


This is being promoted as some way to "equalize" education. It 
conveniently sidesteps the big un-equalizer: poverty. The aim, as you 
say, is to privatize, privatize, privatize. The standards movement 
and RTTT has us swimming in "data." In my school, we have "data team 
meetings" where we used to have child studies. The child is being 
erased in favor of so-called data, which, when are mainly numbers, 
since usefully descriptive data are not crunchable by a computer 
program.


Parents and teachers are organizing: see Elisa's post about the Save 
Our Schools movement and march.

How many of you are aware of the fact that Bill Gates' fingerprints and his
millions given to his foundations are all over these standards? Once again
we follow like sheep, not fighting back or challenging the system that would

A thread had started re. ELA common core but haven't seen anything lately. I 
would love to hear what others are doing in preparation for implementation. 
Unit/lesson development etc. Strategy teaching certainly appears to be needed 
to reach the depth I see in the standards and the whole complexity text idea.

Would love to hear thoughts and discussions on strategies as related to the ELA 
common core and also what different ones are doing to implement the standards- 
What will it look like in the classroom? Lesson plan for a standard, unit 
plans, themes-etc.Complexity of text - I see explicit strategy instruction as a 
key piece to enable students to deal with more complex text.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common core

[Nina Miller]

In Billings, MT we have transitioned to common core in both language arts
and math.  In math no new materials purchased we are just picking and
choosing what we use in our current math series.  The bar is definitely
raised.

In language arts, our district purchased new materials for grades 3-5.  We
adopted Lead21.  The bar is raised dramatically.  Whole group lessons,
differentiated readers, practice workbooks.  High interest but we have been
struggling with the increased expectations.  Lots of finding text evidence
to support responses.  Still teaching comprehension strategies but within
Lead21.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common core

[Megan Dorsay]

I was in charge of the CCSS implementation in our District last year. We 
purchased a new Reading program, Harcourt Journeys, that is aligned to CCSS. 
The biggest change for our teachers is the amount of whole group time. We have 
noticed that the CCSS is heavy on Text-to-Text connections and creating text 
dependency, meaning the children are no longer being encouraged to dig into 
background knowledge but to go back into the text or reference the texts to 
find a lot of the answers. We have discovered that there is still a lot we have 
to supplement because CCSS doesn't provide structure or guidance for all the 
areas our teachers need to focus on to make our students good readers. So we 
have been making sure to still add in those background building experiences.
We are currently creating CFA's using this new material in Grades K-5, and our 
current material in the Middle School (who uses a novel-based, teacher-created 
program right now). We are also trying to become more focused on Essential 
Questions and Expected Outcomes to help guide our instruction.
Another suggestion - We had a consultant from "Leadership And Learning" come 
out last Spring and this Fall to help lead our District through this 
transition. Her name is Aimee Corrigan. You could look her up on their website. 
This group is headed by Larry Ainsworth, a big name in this CCSS process, and 
whose books we refer to all the time for help in Naming Units and unwrapping 
these new standards. She was very pricey, but worth it because she helped us 
focus on what work we needed to do/
It has been quite a struggle, but we are fully immersed in the standards now 
and are going to be revamping our report cards next year as well.
Not sure if that is helpful, but we just sort of jumped in and never looked 
back.
I am happy to share more information if you want to email off this list.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Heather_Waymouth]

I can see how one would get the impression that CCSS wants us to focus on 
excerpts.  I think, though, you may be looking at the "close reading" that the 
standards are supporting which does use excerpts.  This does not mean, however, 
that you don't read the rest of the novel.  For example, if a group of students 
is reading To Kill a Mockingbird, you might plan a day where you do a close 
reading of the section where Scout disarms Mr. Cunningham and the others at the 
courthouse with her innocent conversation.  You might explore the use of 
language on those few pages to see how the author  created a sense of tension 
as well as a sense of revelation through the innocent words of a child.  
There's a fantastic book out there - Notice and Note - that talks about how to 
teach kids to read closely and how to incorporate these activities into our 
curricula rather than using them as stand-alone activities.  In my own 
classroom, I use picture books to teach kids to think critically about authors' 
(and illustrators') choices.  The visual aspect is a lot easier for them to 
discuss at first.  After a while, they start to make the connections that 
authors make stylistic decisions for the same reasons illustrators do.  
Throughout the year, I raise the difficulty of the texts used in these 
activities until we are discussing small sections of the novels they read in 
their English classes.  My focus during these discussions is on the theme of 
the book and the author's purpose in writing it - 2 things my students struggle 
with year after year. The close reading techniques simply offer me another way 
to teach them. I'm sure other states are putting together similar databases, 
but a good reference for how to weave the CCSS into actual unit plans is 
http://www.engageny.org/english-language-arts.  You can pick a grade and see a 
few examples.  Some are put together by teachers, others by outside agencies.  
Take each with a grain of salt  - I haven't used any of these units; I've 
merely read over them to get a better understanding of what direction in which 
the state would like us to head.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[write]

I live in Washington state.  I feel confused that if the CCSS is 
national (well... 45 states), why there would be different tests in the 
West from in the East.  I understand that to be true, but I don't know 
why. 

For 8th grade one of the reading literature standards is about theme 
and setting and plot.  I'd like a lesson using a children's book that I 
can use to show my students what this standard means.  We can then use 
that information with a more challenging book, but I always want to 
teach a new skill with an easy text. 
Jan



Quoting "Palmer, Jennifer" :
Common Core will be assessed through one of two assessments- here in 
Maryland it

will be the PARCC.Other states the assessment will be provided by the Smarter
Balanced Assessment Consortium. 

What state do you live in, Jan? Where you live drives what test will 
be used to
assess common core. I don't think we will know how exacting the 
standards will
be until they have finished developing the tests. The few samples of 
the PARCC
on line were enough to convince me that the test will be rigorous. 


Why not post a few of the confusing standards on line and let's talk them
through.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Palmer, Jennifer]

Is this the standard you are asking about?

"Determine a theme or central idea of a text and analyze its development over 
the course of the text, including its relationship to the characters, setting, 
and plot; provide an objective summary of the text."

Here's what I'd do with it.
Take a meaty children's book by someone like Eve Bunting or Patricia Polacco. 
I'd ask students to determine what the lesson in it is. Then, look at how 
characters change and grow throughout the text and figure out how that change 
is related to author's message. What does the setting have to do with the 
theme? Would the theme or lesson be the same if the setting were different? 
Think about how the author introduced a problem to the story---and then solved 
it--how did these relate to the lesson or theme?
An objective summary would be the theme or lesson with major plot events that 
lead to that theme.
I'd want kids to have some deep discussions, spend time close reading short 
sections of important parts of the text as part of the lesson.
Anyone else? I started with the theme and then analyzed what the author did to 
develop that theme. You could just as easily analyze characters, setting 
plot--- and then use those to identify the theme. I personally prefer starting 
global and then looking at details. Other folks prefer to do the analysis first 
and find the global after studying the details.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Mena]

I am a professor of Developmental Reading II: Grades 3-8 and we want to update 
the required text. I have always loved any publication by Vacca and Vacca 
however some of the other professors feel that our current Vacca text is not 
updated to include CCSS and we should use a more current textbook. I do not 
feel as though CCSS should lead instruction of preservice teacher. However, it 
is important for teachers to know what is required to receive federal 
funding..any suggestions on a textbook that is balanced between seminal and 
current literacy theory, CCSS & federal funding requirements, and seminal and 
established literacy strategies and approaches?

Jan-
That is a good question to ask.  Is it perhaps a trial run to see which one
will be best to eventually give?  I live in Kansas and we will be doing the
Smarter Balance testing.

Yes, Jennifer, that's the standard. 

I think I'll start with the book Smoky Night.  Do you think I should 
make photocopies and give each student a copy?  Should I put it on the 
document camera?  I want the students to be able to refer back to the 
text very specifically (saying, "On page 6... " for example). 


Does anyone have suggestions for other books I can use?

I always want text in hand for kids...but you could also put on the document 
camera. You might also consider Text mapping it---make some scrolls of the book 
and let small groups of students navigate it with you.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[write]

I have been reading the book Pathways to the Common Core. 

I have lots of questions from the book.  I'd love to hear your ideas.  
I don't think you need to have read the book to have ideas about the 
answers. 

I'm not yet done with the book, so maybe some of my questions will be 
answered as I continue to read. 

1.  The book repeatedly states that it is not possible to take on all 
the CCSS at once.  I'm not sure what "at once" means.  In one lesson?  
In one month?  In one school year?  I get the impression as I continue 
to read that all standards (for that grade level) must be worked on in 
one school year. 

2.  The book suggests that students need one hour a day for writing and 
90 minutes a day for reading.  The book only infrequently mentions 
specific grade levels.  Since I teach a 100 minute block that is ELA 
AND social studies, what can you suggest for me?  I don't see how I 
have enough time.  I don't think ten minutes of reading in one class, 
and ten minutes of reading in another, plus 30 minutes of reading in my 
class, plus 20 minutes of reading in another class ... adds up to the 
same as 90 minutes all at once.  Is it necessary for the time to be all 
together?  Is there a minimum of time in one sitting that can count as 
reading?  I don't think reading today's objective and homework 
assignment on the board counts in any way as reading.  Plus since the 
book seems to discourage reading tiny excerpts to gain meaning, it 
seems longer chunks of text will be required reading.  What do the rest 
of you think about both ideas?


3.  What is the difference between anchor standards and just plain standards?

4.  Does the CCSS place an emphasis on literary nonfiction?  Is 
literary nonfiction that same as narrative nonfiction.  I ask because I 
think most nonfiction is NOT literary. 

I have many more questions, but I think this is more than enough in one 
e-mail.  I'm not expecting anyone to have answers to all these 
questions, but anything you can help me with would be great. 
Thanks!

Jan

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Sue and Paul Therrien]

Hi, I agree it is not possible to take on the whole CC at once. If you are 
elementary, that would mean reading, writing, math, listening, and speaking 
while you teach a full day. Several states used money from the government (Race 
to the Top) and set up a statewide curriculum through the course of a year in a 
subject. Georgia had all its math up and running this year. It was impressive. 
Other states also were able to form teams to create theirs. 
My state did not. Each town does their own. Our superintendent decided each 
grade level team should develop from scratch the new math for the year. He 
thought it would empower us, but it caused so much stress and frustration 
throughout our school, that the staff morale plummeted. Not only that, but the 
stress manifested itself in  physical symptoms for several teachers. None of us 
felt empowered because we really did not understand what we were supposed to be 
doing.  As the year progressed we found Georgia's curriculum and used it as a 
guide. We also became aware of Learn Zillion, Teaching Channel, Khan Academy, 
Teachers Pay Teachers, you tube, etc... Some lessons bombed, sometimes because 
we just did not have a deep enough understanding of how to present it; other 
times because the kids had no prerequisite skills; and sometimes, a lack of 
available materials. 
It is a significantly different approach to math and to create lessons and find 
materials for each day was overwhelming. The positive side was that our 
superintendent built in two hours of common planning time each week. Another 
positive was that midyear we had an instructional specialist hired who knew the 
ins and outs of CC, how to assist us in drafting assessments, collecting data, 
creating rubrics, exit slips, other resources, and how to lower our stress 
level. She is a godsend.
What we have learned as individuals is that we think differently in our 
approach to CC. Some of us are big idea thinkers and look at the whole picture 
first and work our way down, others of us are more concrete and need to work 
our way from the bottom up to the big idea. No wonder we didn't always 
understand each other! And then, there were our styles, pace, organization, 
etc...And, we as a team put in lots of extra hours. Other teams chose not to. 
Or, maybe they were more efficient. 
Over the summer, we can choose to work on the math or reading/writing 
curriculum just to the point of being ready to write lessons in these areas for 
the fall. In other words the curriculum template will have the prerequistites 
completed, or so that is the goal. 
We are also have a consultant from TC (Lucy Caulkins people) who is to help us 
with the reading. TC has developed a plan for NY state, and we will use several 
of the units. They have a units calendar and now have published each unit at 
grade level for teachers. Our system bought them for us. 
In fifth grade our goal is to be able to have children sustain independent 
reading up to 45 minutes a day by the end of the year. Reading is a 75 minute 
block. Writing is a 60 minute block as is math. We are going to have to 
incorporate more CC nonfiction in our year. But we have more freedom to choose 
how we want to teach the standards. It no longer has to be just like "TC." It 
also means trying to develop a reading curriculum that can encompass explorers 
through the Rev. War. Science? Spelling? Grammar? Vocabulary? all need to be 
incorporated into these curriculums. 
Does this help or add more confusion? Sue

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Palmer, Jennifer]

All at once...I believe that refers to the major instructional shifts required 
by Common Core. You can't take on too many changes at once.

Many of the teachers in my buildings are integrating social studies and science 
content into language arts instruction, organizing thematic units around 
essential questions. The idea behind common core--going deeper--and creating 
connections across texts--happens more easily in thematic units.

Anchor standards--- they are k-12--- and the grade specific standards are drawn 
from those. 

It's so interesting to see how different people read and interpret these 
standards differently. Some feel long texts are discouraged--others short text. 
I think it's all texts-- but more reading across several types of texts on the 
same topic--and requiring student to read and integrate ideas from all of them. 
Texts now include visual texts like video clips--audio clips like podcasts---so 
you perhaps read a novel that has the Holocaust as subject matter, see video 
clips related to survivor stories, read an article... And then students 
integrate content from all---
Much nonfiction written for younger readers is literary---think Magic School 
Bus-- etc

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Rosa Roper]

As for types of nonfiction, I would not stick to literary nonfiction, but 
incorporate a variety of nonfiction types so students are learning how to read 
various types - literary nonfiction in my opinion is probably the easiest type 
of nonfiction for students. Think articles, primary source documents, 
biographies, just to name a few.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Renee Goularte]

I have read in more than one place that rather than bringing more  
social studies and science content into language arts instruction AT  
THE EXPENSE OF FICTION, what the common core standards are *meant* to  
do is bring more language arts instruction into social studies and  
science.


Of course, that's not how they wrote them, so I personally think that  
is a bit of CYA after the backlash about replacing fiction with non- 
fiction.


I have a lot of problems with the common core standards myself, mostly  
centered around the developmentally-inappropriate  suggested texts for  
upper elementary grades and beyond, but also in what they leave out,  
mostly in math.  No patterning in Kindergarten, for example, when ALL  
math is essentially patterning.  huh?


But that's a different conversation. :-)

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

I agree that the actual teaching of reading and writing appropriate to content 
areas is called for by the core. However, I think they have been very clear 
that the text we use is 50% literature and 50% informational, it is not 
suggested that we abandon fiction.

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core

[Palmer, Jennifer]

No. The anchor standard is the ultimate goal. What kids need to be college and 
career ready. The grade level standards represent a progression to achieve the 
anchor.
Example : here's an anchor standard-

Corresponding College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standard

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.

Then here's a third,fifth  and seventh grade standard related to it-
Third- 1. Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, 
referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers.

Fifth- 1. Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says 
explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.

Seventh- 1. Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what 
the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.

Note how the demands increase over the grades but all lead to achievement of 
the anchor standard

I have been reading the book Pathways to the Common Core.
I have lots of questions from the book.  I'd love to hear your ideas.  I don't 
think you need to have read the book to have ideas about the answers.
I'm not yet done with the book, so maybe some of my questions will be answered 
as I continue to read.
1.  The book repeatedly states that it is not possible to take on all the CCSS 
at once.  I'm not sure what "at once" means.  In one lesson?  In one month?  In 
one school year?  I get the impression as I continue to read that all standards 
(for that grade level) must be worked on in one school year.
2.  The book suggests that students need one hour a day for writing and 90 
minutes a day for reading.  The book only infrequently mentions specific grade 
levels.  Since I teach a 100 minute block that is ELA AND social studies, what 
can you suggest for me?  I don't see how I have enough time.  I don't think ten 
minutes of reading in one class, and ten minutes of reading in another, plus 30 
minutes of reading in my class, plus 20 minutes of reading in another class ... 
adds up to the same as 90 minutes all at once.  Is it necessary for the time to 
be all together?  Is there a minimum of time in one sitting that can count as 
reading?  I don't think reading today's objective and homework assignment on 
the board counts in any way as reading.  Plus since the book seems to 
discourage reading tiny excerpts to gain meaning, it seems longer chunks of 
text will be required reading.  What do the rest of you think about both ideas?

3.  What is the difference between anchor standards and just plain standards?

4.  Does the CCSS place an emphasis on literary nonfiction?  Is literary 
nonfiction that same as narrative nonfiction.  I ask because I think most 
nonfiction is NOT literary.
I have many more questions, but I think this is more than enough in one e-mail. 
 I'm not expecting anyone to have answers to all these questions, but anything 
you can help me with would be great. Thanks!
Jan

Re: [MOSAIC] common core ELA

[Palmer, Jennifer]

We are moving slowly. This past year was only awareness training. 
The state of Maryland is doing a comparison of their current state curriculum 
and common core, and doing an alignment. Lesson seeds, etc, will come from 
that...so next year will be the BIG training so that we implement fully the 
following year.

Subject: [MOSAIC] common core ELA

A thread had started re. ELA common core but haven't seen anything lately. I 
would love to hear what others are doing in preparation for implementation. 
Unit/lesson development etc. Strategy teaching certainly appears to be needed 
to reach the depth I see in the standards and the whole complexity text idea.

Re: [MOSAIC] common core ELA

[Tamara Westmoreland]

I would love to hear people's thinking on the complexity of text issue as
well...  A good resource is Timothy Shanahan's website and he is on UTube
discussing this issue of "close" reading and ALL students reading complex
text- even the struggling/below grade readers.  Also Freddy Hiebert has
some great resources as well..

Hi Gay,

Perhaps you are thinking about readworx.org.  You have to sign up, but it's 
free.  They have reading comprehension passages by grade level and 
comprehension skill.  They just e-mailed me a bunch of passages  that all have 
a winter theme.  I find the site very helpful.

[MOSAIC] Common Core and F & P

[jayhawkrtroy fredde]

I am on my district's literacy Taskforce. We are starting the task of
creating descriptors for each grade level for the implementation of Common
Core next year. This will include sight words students should know,(which I
am not keen on), what Fountas & Pinnell Benchmark level students should be
at, and exactly what a student should be able to do and use as far as
reading strategies. It must meet all Common Core Standards. We are a
district really pushing everything Fountas & Pinnell also, so we have their
LLI program and are starting to implement the Benchmark Assessment.  We are
going to use the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum Of Literacy to help us do
this. I was wondering anyone out has put together this type of document in
their district yet and what it looked like.  I would love an example to
look at. We are setting lofty standards. Here are our Independent Level
Goals for next year for the end of the year using F & P Benchmark.
K= Level D
1st= Level J
2nd= Level N
3rd= R
4th =U
5th= X

Re: [MOSAIC] Common core report card

[Keith Mack]

As a matter of internet safety we have to reject attachments being sent to
the Mosaic list. A couple people tried to do this, but I requested that they
send to individuals or to me for posting on the website.

Please don't contact 3000+ members when you need a document from one member.
It is very annoying to all list members to continue to see the "me too's"

[MOSAIC] Common Core--non fiction reading

[Patty Zorzi]

There is much discussion about how Common Core Standards will change our 
teaching and worry (or not) about  the increase in non fiction reading.  This 
article really made me think about text selection and the choices we can make 
for our students.

Hi Gay,

Perhaps you are thinking about readworx.org.  You have to sign up, but it's 
free.  They have reading comprehension passages by grade level and 
comprehension skill.  They just e-mailed me a bunch of passages  that all have 
a winter theme.  I find the site very helpful.

It varies...depending on the needs of our kiddos, but most teachers are using 
all three of these configurations. Literature circles are probably least used, 
but mainly because we are trying to figure out how to use them more effectively

Re: [MOSAIC] Common core and reading

[jayhawkrtroy fredde]

What is literary Nonfiction? I was asked this questions today by my third
grade team. It is nonfiction writing written with the elements of a story,
with intentional flow, and is intended for a wider audience than nonfiction
that is written for a specific audience. It is written as much to entertain
as to inform. Am I off here?

We are also very much a Fountas/Pinnell district and have been for many years. 
We have already begun to use the Common Core. I feel I can share many different 
thoughts which may be too lengthy for this list serve. You are certainly 
welcome to contact me personally. However, I will say that the listed 
independent benchmark levles seem very high.

at, and exactly what a student should be able to do and use as far as
reading strategies. It must meet all Common Core Standards. We are a

LLI program and are starting to implement the Benchmark Assessment.  We are
going to use the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum Of Literacy to help us do
this. I was wondering anyone out has put together this type of document in

The Benchmark levels are very high and not to my liking given that they are

[Renee]

What happens to students who do not meet these monthly targets?

I'm curious

Re: [MOSAIC] Common Core and F & P

[Kelly Alexander]

I would really like to see those month to month levels as well.  We have a 
range that we use for each quarter, but I would be very interested in the 
monthly levels.
Thank you in advance.

I am on my district's literacy Taskforce. We are starting the task of
creating descriptors for each grade level for the implementation of Common
Core next year. This will include sight words students should know,(which I
am not keen on), what Fountas & Pinnell Benchmark level students should be
at, and exactly what a student should be able to do and use as far as
reading strategies. It must meet all Common Core Standards. We are a
district really pushing everything Fountas & Pinnell also, so we have their
LLI program and are starting to implement the Benchmark Assessment.  We are
going to use the Fountas and Pinnell Continuum Of Literacy to help us do
this. I was wondering anyone out has put together this type of document in
their district yet and what it looked like.  I would love an example to
look at. We are setting lofty standards. Here are our Independent Level
Goals for next year for the end of the year using F & P Benchmark.
K= Level D
1st= Level J
2nd= Level N
3rd= R
4th =U
5th= X
