Galaz, Gail Estrada, Becky Au, Michael M. Mirabal Second Grade—4 Nine Week Period 1 th English Language Arts (ELA) Pacing Guide Las Cruces Public Schools Overview of the Common Core State Standards: The Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects are the culmination of an extended, broad-‐based effort to fulfill the charge issued by the states to create the next generation of standards in order to help ensure that all students are college and career ready in literacy no later than the end of high school. The standards define what all students are expected to know and be able to do, not how teachers teach.1 Description of the Pacing Guide: A pacing guide is an interval based description of what teachers teach in a particular grade or course; the order in which it is taught, and the amount of time dedicated to teaching the content. Purpose of a Pacing Guide: The purpose of a pacing guide is to ensure that all of the standards are addressed during the academic year. Each pacing guide is nine weeks in duration. Components of the Pacing Guide: • College and career (CCR) anchor standard-‐-‐define the skills and understandings that all students must demonstrate. • Grade level standard—defines what students should know and be able to do by the end of each grade level • Unpacked standard—provides a clear picture for the teacher as he/she implements the CCSS • Resources—includes but not limited to current district core resources • Depth of Knowledge — (DOK) Criteria for systematically analyzing the alignment between standards and standardized assessments 1 Retrieved from www.corestandards.org , p. 6, Introduction: Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts & Literacy in History/ Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects. Second Grade—4 Nine Week Period 2 th Key Points in English Language Arts Reading • The standards establish a “staircase” of increasing complexity in what students must be able to read so that all students are ready for the demands of college-‐ and career-‐level reading no later than the end of high school. The standards also require the progressive development of reading comprehension so that students advancing through the grades are able to gain more from whatever they read. • Through reading a diverse array of classic and contemporary literature as well as challenging informational texts in a range of subjects, students are expected to build knowledge, gain insights, explore possibilities, and broaden their perspective. Because the standards are building blocks for successful classrooms, but recognize that teachers, school districts and states need to decide on appropriate curriculum, they intentionally do not offer a reading list. Instead, they offer numerous sample texts to help teachers prepare for the school year and allow parents and students to know what to expect at the beginning of the year. • The standards mandate certain critical types of content for all students, including classic myths and stories from around the world, foundational U.S. documents, seminal works of American literature, and the writings of Shakespeare. The standards appropriately defer the many remaining decisions about what and how to teach to states, districts, and schools. Writing • The ability to write logical arguments based on substantive claims, sound reasoning, and relevant evidence is a cornerstone of the writing standards, with opinion writing—a basic form of argument—extending down into the earliest grades. • Research—both short, focused projects (such as those commonly required in the workplace) and longer term in depth research —is emphasized throughout the standards but most prominently in the writing strand since a written analysis and presentation of findings is so often critical. • Annotated samples of student writing accompany the standards and help establish adequate performance levels in writing arguments, informational/explanatory texts, and narratives in the various grades. Speaking and Listening • The standards require that students gain, evaluate, and present increasingly complex information, ideas, and evidence through listening and speaking as well as through media. • An important focus of the speaking and listening standards is academic discussion in one-‐on-‐one, small-‐group, and whole-‐class settings. Formal presentations are one important way such talk occurs, but so is the more informal discussion that takes place as students Second Grade—4 Nine Week Period 3 th collaborate to answer questions, build understanding, and solve problems. Language • The standards expect that students will grow their vocabularies through a mix of conversations, direct instruction, and reading. The standards will help students determine word meanings, appreciate the nuances of words, and steadily expand their repertoire of words and phrases. • The standards help prepare students for real life experience at college and in 21st century careers. The standards recognize that students must be able to use formal English in their writing and speaking but that they must also be able to make informed, skillful choices among the many ways to express themselves through language. • Vocabulary and conventions are treated in their own strand not because skills in these areas should be handled in isolation but because their use extends across reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Media and Technology • Just as media and technology are integrated in school and life in the twenty-‐first century, skills related to media use (both critical analysis and production of media) are integrated throughout the standards.

Standard RL2.4 Q1 I/P Q2 I/P Q3 I/P Q4 I/P Unpacked (What does the standard actually mean?) Students who can describe how words and phrases supply rhythm and meaning in a story, poem or song have learned terms such as alliteration, rhyme, rhythm, paragraph, stanza, phrases, repeating/repetition, and beats. Rhythm is the patterns of the sounds of the words. Regular beats, alliteration, rhymes and repeated lines can be used to make rhythmic patterns in text. Alliteration is the repeated use of the same beginning sound in a group of words (Alice sells apples in Atlanta). Rhymes are words that have the same ending sound, tall/wall; pound/ground. Repeated lines give stories and poems a rhythmic pattern. Depth of Knowledge (DOK 1) Carley is writing a poem and needs a word that rhymes with mosquito. Which of the following choices will work?
