Reading Standards
By the end of grade 10 students will:Reading Standards for Literature
Key Ideas and Details
1. Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says
explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
2. Determine a theme or central idea of a text and analyze in detail its development over
the course of the text, including how it emerges and is shaped and refined by specificdetails; provide an objective summary of the text.
3. Analyze how complex characters (e.g., those with multiple or conflicting motivations)
develop over the course of a text, interact with other characters, and advance the plot or
develop the theme.
Craft and Structure
4. Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in the text, includingfigurative and connotative meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word
choices on meaning and tone (e.g., how the language evokes a sense of time and place;
how it sets a formal or informal tone).
5. Analyze how an authors choices concerning how to structure a text, order eventswithin it (e.g., parallel plots), and manipulate time (e.g., pacing, flashbacks) create such
effects as mystery, tension, or surprise.
6. Analyze a particular point of view or cultural experience reflected in a work ofliterature from outside the United States, drawing on a wide reading of world literature.
Integration of Knowledge and Ideas
7. Analyze the representation of a subject or key scene in two different artistic mediums,including what is emphasized or absent in each treatment (e.g., Audens Musee des
Beaux Arts and Breughles Landscape with the Fall of Icarus).
8. (Not applicable to literature)
9. Analyze how an author draws on and transforms source material in a specific work
(e.g., how Shakespeare treats a theme or topic from Ovid or the Bible or how a later
author draws on a play by Shakespeare).

types are defined in standards 1-3 above).
5. Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, ortrying a new approach, focusing on addressing what is most significant for a specificpurpose and audience. (Editing for conventions should demonstrate command of
Language standards 1-3 to and including grades 9-10).
6. Use technology, including the Internet, to produce, publish, and update individual or
shared writing products, taking advantage of technologys capacity to link to other
information and to display information flexibly and dynamically.Research to Build and Present Knowledge
7. Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects to answer a question
(including a self-generated question) or solve a p roblem; narrow or broaden the inquiry
when appropriate; synthesize multiple sources on the subject, demonstrating
understanding of the subject under investigation.

a theme or topic form Ovid or the Bible or how a later author draws on a play by
Shakespeare]).
b. Apply grades 9-10 Reading standards to literary nonfiction (e.g., Delineate andevaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, assessing whether the reasoning is
valid and the evidence is relevant and sufficient; identify false statements and fallacious
reasoning).
Range of Writing

Whole Group Shared Reading (5-10 minutes)
Goal = Build
Shared reading is used not only as reading for enjoyment, but to teach effectivereading habits. Teacher routinely and explicitly will:
Think aloud. Question for listening comprehension. Support vocabulary and work attack strategies. Model comprehension strategies.
Explicit Small Group and Independent Reading Work Period (15-25minutes; may
alternate with writing or occur daily in [double] blocked class)
Goals = Reach and Practice
The teacher will: Confer with students or lead small collaborative groups of students. In conferences, assist students as they reflect on their learning and set goals and
monitor progress.
In collaborative groups, meet with students who are working together. Supportmay be offered in short, guided lessons (5-10 minutes) and should be clearly
focused and scaffolded for students.
Use reciprocal teaching instructional strategies. Use a variety of purposeful grouping formats for students who need more support
(e.g., literature groups, Turn and Talk). Students participate in bothhomogeneous and heterogeneous groupings to meet di fferent purposes.
Offer frequent, multiple opportunities to interact with one another and use orallanguage purposefully during whole and small group and independent time.
Strategically monitor time to ensure students are able to engage in both smallgroup and independent work time each class period.
Integrate speaking, listening, discussing, media, technology, and research. During independent work time, monitor and assist as students independently
read, practicing whole and small group lesson strategies or skills. They may also
partner read, use literature circles, and increase the volume of their reading.
Help students carefully select independent reading materials, based on readingand language levels, concept knowledge, cultural backgrounds, interests, andsupport books offer, and consider these characteristics for small group reading
materials. Monitor as students independently read just-right books and write responses to
reading and literature in their learning logs.
Make certain access to materials, including novels, short texts, chart paper,graphic organizers, learning logs, and sticky notes.
Engage students in higher-order talk and writing about thedisciplines of English

Explicit Small Group and Independent Writing Work Period (15-25minutes; may
alternate with reading or occur daily in [double] blocked class)
Goals = Reach and Practice
The teacher will:
Guide students as they engage in a writing processindependently, in writingcircles with writing partners, or with the teacher.
Assist and connect students to consult appropriate mentor texts aligned to the focusof their writing.
Confer with individual students, asking questions to help them think through howto improve their writing. During frequent writing conferences the teacher will:
Read portions of student writing then ask strategic questions designed to encouragestudents to talk about their writing processes and language use.
Based on students questions, evidenced-based needs, and interests, decide what toteach students or what to reinforce from recent focus lessons.
Help students reflect on their writing by posing questions and talking with themabout their writing processes and set goals for next steps.
Reinforce a strategy or concept clearly by supporting students in using informationfrom other focus lessons, connecting students to writing mentors, and/or providing
guided practice, to allow students to employ writing strategies with teacher
assistance.
Integrate speaking, listening, discussing, media, technology, and research.
Whole Group Sharing and Reflection (5-10 minutes)
Goals = Reconnect and Wrap Up
The teacher will:
Reconvene whole group to include all members of the class. Briefly revisit the learning intention. Class will share written pieces and articulate
learning in written and oral forms (via formal and information and presentations).
Integrate listening, speaking, presentation, media, and technology skills into thesharing session.
Provide appropriate feedback.
