CCR Standards
Reading
  • Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. (Apply this standard to texts of appropriate complexity as outlined by Standard 10.)

Lead CCR Level Specific Standards
Reading Anchor 1: Level D
  • Application: cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources.

  • Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. 

Supporting CCR Level Specific Standards
  • Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to support analysis, reflection, and research.
    a. Apply Reading standards from this level to literature (e.g., “Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text”).
    b. Apply Reading standards from this level to informational text (e.g., “Explain how an author uses reasons and evidence to support particular points in a text, identifying which reasons and evidence support which point(s)”).
  • Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners, building on others’ ideas and expressing their own clearly.
    a. Come to discussions prepared, having read or studied required material; explicitly draw on that preparation and other information known about the topic to explore ideas under discussion.
    b. Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions and carry out assigned roles.
    c. Pose and respond to specific questions by making comments that contribute to the discussion and elaborate on the remarks of others.
    d. Review the key ideas expressed and draw conclusions in light of information and knowledge gained from the discussions.
KYAE Employability Standards
  • E.2 Utilize workplace tools and technologies to communicate effectively (e.g., memos/e-mails, basic computer programs, phone systems).

  • E.7 Accurately analyze information and respond appropriately.
