Instructional Shifts in CCSS –
ELA Standards in multiple disciplines
• Building Knowledge through Informational Text (“content rich”)
• Reading, Writing, Speaking draws from evidence in text (argumentation)
• Learning Disciplinary knowledge through engagement with texts rich in the complexity of content that uses academic vocabulary (language of the discipline)
Sustained improvement in literacy teaching and learning occurs when literacy is a shared responsibility, professional learning is rooted in
collaboration and inquiry, and organizational conditions sustain
ongoing learning for everyone.
