Download or read book Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History Social Studies Science and Technical Subjects for English Language Learners written by Luciana C. deOliveira and published by Tesol Press. This book was released on 2016 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This volume in the Common Core State Standards for English Language Learners series was designed to deepen teachers' knowledge and provide instructional approaches and practices for supporting 6th-grade through 12th-grade ELLs as they meet the ambitious expectations of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects. Language development is a key theme of CCSS-based instruction for ELLs because they need to engage meaningfully with texts to develop their academic language and literacy skills. Developing academic language within classroom contexts is another key theme for ELLs to be successful in schools. These two themes are interconnected throughout the volume; in order for ELLs to learn academic language, they must learn it in the context of intellectually engaging tasks that enable them to read complex texts in history, science, and beyond. Along with the other books in this series, this book asks educators to consider the content and language demands of the CCSS for ELLs, and provides specific pedagogical practices, strategies, and ideas for teaches to reflect on the kind of instruction that is possible for making the demands of language use explicit. The chapters include Reflection Questions and Action Plans that are useful for practicing teachers, preservice teachers, graduate students, academic, researchers, and professional development providers."--Back cover

Book excerpt: This practitioner-based book provides different approaches for reaching an increasing population in today’s schools - English language learners (ELLs). The recent development and adoption of the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects (CCSS-ELA/Literacy), the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, the C3 Framework, and the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) highlight the role that teachers have in developing discipline-specific competencies.

The book begins with an introduction that contextualizes the chapters in which the editors highlight transdisciplinary theories and approaches that cut across content areas.

This book was released on 2014 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this phenomenological study was to examine the experiences of secondary social studies teachers who implemented Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in history/social studies, science and technical subjects in social studies courses requiring End of Course Tests at secondary schools in one suburban district in Georgia. Ten teachers of United States history and economics courses participated in this study. Data was collected through questionnaires, reflective online journaling, documents, individual interviews, and focus groups. Analysis was conducted using transcription, thematic coding, textural and structural descriptions, and a composite description of the essence of the experiences. Findings included teachers used creative lesson plans, primary source documents, and writing to implement the literacy standards. Teachers expressed a need for professional development, concerns about students' knowledge and understanding of complex vocabulary and students' reading skills, and lack of alignment between the summative assessment instrument and the literacy standards. Economics teachers had a difficult time finding appropriate materials for the implementation.

Download or read book Social Studies Teachers and the Common Core A Study of Instructional Practices Teaching Conditions and Professional Development written by Emma Delia Hipolito and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science and Technical Subjects lays out a role for history/social studies in the teaching of disciplinary literacy, writing, and speaking and listening. While the effects of the Standards on the teaching of English/Language Arts and Math has been a source of discussion, the impact on social studies instruction has not been studied. Through surveys (n= 217) and interviews (n=20), this explanatory sequential mixed methods study examines the practice of social studies teachers as it relates to the Standards approach to critical reading, historical inquiry, and argumentation. I also investigate the conditions that support or hinder these practices as well as access to professional development. Differences among schools in low-income communities and more affluent neighborhoods are considered as part of these lines of inquiry. My findings show that teachers in low- income schools are concerned about the academic preparedness of students to engage in Common Core activities. This is in spite of a finding that teachers in less affluent schools have a strong repertoire of literacy practices. Second, teachers are making changes to their practice. The most commonly cited change was a depth over breadth approach to the California History-Social Science Standards. Third, only a small percentage of teachers report that the Common Core Standards are integrated into the practices of teachers in their department. Thus, this study sheds light on the current practices of social studies teachers in California and the supports needed to enact the Common Core Standards.
Download or read book Understanding Common Core State Standards written by John Kendall and published by ASCD. This book was released on 2011-07-21 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In June 2010, the Common Core State Standards Initiative released Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects and Common Core State Standards for Mathematics. The goal of these shared national standards? To identify for all stakeholders the knowledge and skills that students must acquire to succeed in college, careers, and the global economy. Now that the Common Core standards are coming to 43 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, it is essential to understand their content and implications. Understanding Common Core State Standards tells you everything you need to know about the standards, including * The goals and criteria of the standards and why they are a promising alternative to the old standards-based education model; * The organization and key aspects of the two overarching sets of standards; * The benefits of implementing the standards, including intentional instruction, a greater pool of resources, increased collegiality and professionalism, customized learning and multiple pathways, and a more consistent, equitable learning experience; * What schools can do to transition to the new standards; and * How the common state assessment systems are being developed to provide interactive, enhanced test items; produce specific, timely test results; and provide an indication of students' readiness for college or career. This book is an invitation to think about the possibilities that the Common Core standards offer for strengthening teaching and learning across the United States--and what you can do to make the most of this opportunity for change.
