Common Core State Standards for English
Language Arts and Literacy in History/ Social Studies,
Science, and Technical Subjects
CCSS Design
2
Building on the strength of current state standards, the CCSS are designed to be:
Focused, coherent, clear and rigorous
Internationally benchmarked
Anchored in college and career readiness* (CCR)
Evidence and research based
Common Core State StandardsDo Not Provide…
• A complete scope and sequence.
• A course outline.• All the essential skills
and knowledge students could have.
Do…• Outline the most
essential skills and knowledge every student needs to master to be college and career-ready.
• Distribute responsibility for students’ literacy development.

Teacher and Student Skills
As you view this presentation, identify the skills necessary for teachers and students to successfully implement the CCSS.
Skills for:Teachers Students
Guiding Question:
• How do you engage students in reading and responding to complex texts in your discipline?

Science, and Technical Subjects
Shared responsibility for students’ literacy development

K - With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
1st Ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
2nd Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why and how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text.

Overview of Standards for History/Social Studies, Science,
and Technical Subjects
• Reading Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects– Knowledge of domain-specific vocabulary
– Analyze, evaluate, and differentiate primary and secondary sources
– Synthesize quantitative and technical information, including facts presented in maps, timelines, flowcharts, or diagrams
• Writing Standards for History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects– Write arguments on discipline-specific content and informative/explanatory
texts
– Use of data, evidence, and reason to support arguments and claims
– Use of domain-specific vocabulary
CCSS & State Standards for Your Discipline
• Think about the state standards for your discipline and the CCSS Literacy Standards.
• Discuss at your table how these two sets of standards will interact.
• Create a content example of melding the standards into one lesson.
