RIGOR:
Rigor is not an attribute of a text
but rather a characteristic of
our behavior with a text.
Rigor resides in the energy
and attention given to a text.
The CCSS promotes a
“thinking curriculum”.
The national standards place a
strong emphasis on students
reading more complex texts with
higher levels of comprehension and
greater independence. They are
NOT about taking a personal stance.
CCSS: Speaking & Listening
To build a foundation for college and career
readiness, students must have ample
opportunities to take part in a variety of
rich, structured conversations—as part of a
whole class, in small groups, and with a
partner. Being productive members of
these conversations requires that students
contribute accurate, relevant information;
respond to and develop what others have
said; make comparisons and contrasts; and
analyze and synthesize a multitude of ideas
in various domains.
COMPREHENSION AND
COLLABORATION
SL.1 Prepare for and participate effectively
in a range of conversations and
collaborations with diverse partners, building
on others’ ideas and expressing their own
clearly and persuasively.
SL.2 Integrate and evaluate information
presented in diverse media and formats,
including visually, quantitatively, and orally.
SL.3 Evaluate a speaker’s point of view,
reasoning, and use of evidence and rhetoric.
PRESENTATION OF
KNOWLEDGE AND IDEAS
SL.4 Present information, findings, and
supporting evidence such that listeners can
follow the line of reasoning and the organization,
development, and style are appropriate to task,
purpose, and audience.
SL.5 Make strategic use of digital media and
visual displays of data to express information and
enhance understanding of presentations.
SL.6 Adapt speech to a variety of contexts and
communicative tasks, demonstrating command
of formal English when indicated or appropriate.

LIFE SKILL
NF most popular reading
Nf we are reading has a point of view – asking us to
take what it is giving us, we need to think critically to
be empowered to interpret what we are reading
WHAT IS TRUTH/WHAT IS NOT
What are the biases that are inside NF texts
Makes it possible to teach higher level thinking skills
It invites NF bookclubs in a doable way, they can read text
sets and switch
Primary Read Aloud

Time to linger with texts and look across
them
Support ideas with text evidence from
across a text and multiple sources
Children share and reflect on what they
learned when the unit is over
