The Shifts for ELA with CCGPS• Building knowledge through content-rich
nonfiction• Reading, writing and speaking grounded in
evidence from text, both literary and informational
• Regular practice with complex text and its academic language

How are schools addressing the recommended 50/50 balance between informational and literary text?• Non-fiction text is harder for students to read and
comprehend. • Teachers may need to scaffold the learning and provide
support. • Informational texts include: memoirs, biography,
autobiography, personal essays, speeches, opinion pieces, literary criticism, foundational American works, primary sources in history and science. (this isn’t an exhaustive list.)
Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction

Evidenced-Based TextWhat questions should teachers be asking to ensure
that students’ answers are “evidence-based”?
1. What can we learn from the map and the text on pages ___? After looking at the map, how do things look for the people of Nome?
2. Why is it necessary to use several dog teams instead of just one? 3. What makes this part of the journey more difficult?

Complex Text“…To grow, our students must read lots, and more specifically they must read lots of “complex texts – texts that offer them new language, new knowledge, and new modes of thought” (Adams, 2009)
How do we determine “complex text”? Qualitative, Quantitative, Reader & Task
Lexiles provide a quantitative measure for determining text complexity, but research shows that there is more to text complexity than just this quantitative measure.

Academic VocabularyWhy is academic vocabulary important?
“Vocabulary knowledge is strongly related to reading proficiency, in particular, and school achievement in general.” (Beck, 2002)
Language Anchor Standard 6 – Acquire and use accurately a range of general academic and domain-specific words and phrases..
![Page 12: Common Core GPS English / Language Arts](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56815c71550346895dca8626/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)

Academic VocabularyWhat is “academic” vocabulary?
Three tiers– Tier 1 - High-frequency words, words of everyday speech
went, about, was, look, education– Tier 2 – Academic words – cross content areas
analyze, function, principle– Tier 3 – Domain specific words
rhombus, cytoplasm

Academic VocabularyHow do teachers select the right
academic words to teach?• What does the word choice bring to the meaning of the text?• Is it a word that students will likely see often in other texts?• Are there multiple meanings to the word? • Can you group it with other words or is within a word family?
(construct, reconstruction) Does the word help provide precision and specificity to a conceptual understanding?
![Page 14: Common Core GPS English / Language Arts](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062305/56815c71550346895dca8626/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Foundational Reading• Domains of Foundational Reading:
Print Concepts, Phonological Awareness, Phonics and Word Recognition, Fluency
• Look at the progression of skills across all domains• Assess frequently – informal and formal• Use assessment to determine when to move on to the
next step (for example, the student should know the sounds prior to blending)
• Apply intervention when necessary• Units were not written to address these standards

Recommended Module Order: Grades K-5
• Georgia Striving Readers Introduction• Planning the ELA Block
– Four modules address what should be included in the ELA Block– They are listed in alphabetical order on the screen but should be
followed in this order: Differentiating in…
Phonemic Awareness and Word Recognition (K-2) Word Recognition and Fluency (K-2) Fluency and Comprehension (1-5) Vocabulary and Comprehension (K-5)
- Grades 3-5 can probably skip the first two

Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Top Ten Recommendations1. Plan professional learning for your teachers. Use resources available on georgiastandards.org, the K-5 wikipage-http://georgiaelaccgpsk-5.wikispaces.com/, comprehensivereadingsolutions.com
2. Increase the volume of reading for students – good mix of literary and informational.
3. Include more informational texts in the school-wide literacy instructional plan. (50%-70%)
4. Learn how to ask / write good questions that are text dependent, are worthwhile for class time, and require the student to “dig deep” for the answers.

Dr. John D. Barge, State School Superintendent“Making Education Work for All Georgians”www.gadoe.org
Top Ten Recommendations
5. Use close reading appropriately. It isn’t necessary to analyze every text. Use this strategy to develop specific skills.
6. Thoughtfully increase the complexity of texts students read.
7. Explicitly teach foundational skills in K-2. Don’t forget that these students must learn to read.
8. Teach students to write and speak using evidence from the text.
9. Teach academic vocabulary.
10. Talk, share, collaborate, read professional books and articles!
