Week 4: Chapters 4 & 5

This week I have two options for you. Please only respond to one AND indicate in your response which one you are addressing.

PROMPT:
Chapters 4 and 5 both describe the three categories of the CCSS reading standards (Key Ideas and Details, Craft and Structure, Integration of Knowledge and Ideas). 

1.Explain in your own words the differences among these three categories.  Which of the three categories will create the greatest challenge for you in your own classroom/work and how will you support your students in acquiring these new anchor standards ?  

OR

2. Explain in your own words the differences among these three categories. How will increased emphasis on non-fiction reading change instruction in your class/work?

Your response to the prompt is due by Monday evening, February 3. Then, you are expected to revisit this site and respond to at least one of your fellow participant’s comments by Thursday, February 6. If you need help posting your comment, watch this video.

Don’t forget to read chapters 6 and 7 in anticipation of next week’s prompt.
