The PARCC Online site linked to below contains details and will have the 3rd edition of the manual available soon. - PARCC Online - Accessibility and Accommodations - Accessibility and Accommodations Presentation Note Taking for PARCC This month I'd like to point out the importance of students learning and practicing the art of note taking. It is most apparent in PARCC as students plan to write essays and for noting information not just from readings but from videos. Take time at all grade levels to teach and model note taking, and give students lots of practice. - Helping Children Build Notetaking Skills from Choice Literacy - How to Take Great Notes Video (also in District Shared, District Staff folder) - Taking Notes - Two-column Notes from WatchKnowLearn Common Core in the Disciplines: Social Studies/History, Science and Technical Subjects (6-8) - The Standards - Literacy in Other Disciplines - History - Reading Like a Historian - Science - Reading Science Texts Additional Resources: Close Reading - Close Reading Information - Dr. McClennen's Close Reading Guide - Exploring Complex Text with High Quality Questions - video Units of Study and Common Core Frameworks are used as a bridge between the Common Core Standards and the PARCC assessments. They are voluntary resources offered by PARCC for teachers as they implement the standards. They are just one of a number of ways the standards could be organized over the course of the school year. While specifics vary depending on grade levels, they all have some commonalities. All use units of study, 6 week modules K-2nd and quarterly units 3rd - 11th. These units include reading of complex texts, writing to texts, and a research project. Throughout the unit, foundational skills are taught in terms of citing evidence, analyzing content, studying and applying grammar, studying and applying vocabulary, conducting discussions (3-11) and reporting findings (3-11). Information on the units of study for grades K-2 can be found at (see bottom of page for ELA and Math frameworks): http://www.parcconline.org/parcc-model-content-frameworks The units of study for grades 3-11 can be found at: http://www.parcconline.org/mcf/ela/parcc-model-content-frameworks-browser Tech Tips: (To sharpen those "points"!)
