1、Connecticut PK- 8 English Language Art Curriculum StandardsOctober 2009IntroductionThe Connecticut PreK-8 English Language Arts Curriculum Standards template is intended to be a structure by which a school district may develop its own literacy curriculum. Literacy in Connecticut addresses reading, w
2、riting, listening, speaking, viewing, and presenting. This document is not to be used as a comprehensive curriculum. It is expected a district download this document and add to it as necessary, adding columns for strategies, materials and resources, professional development, family connections, etc.
3、 It is through rich discussions between administrators, teachers, and staff that an effective, aligned PK-12 curriculum must be developed. Curriculum must be directly linked to a districts vision, mission, cascading goals, instructional practices, pacing guides, resources and materials, formative an
4、d summative assessments, embedded, ongoing professional development, and personnel evaluations. Curriculum development must be guided and supported by leadership. Time and money must be allocated for sustained, ever-evolving curriculum development. Curriculum and instructional changes must be founde
5、d on accurate data collection, disaggregation, analysis, evaluation, and presentation.Foundation The 2006 Connecticut English Language Arts Curriculum Framework is the foundation on which the 2007 Connecticut PreK-8 English Language Arts Curriculum Standards template was developed. The format, which
6、 is structured by grade levels, includes the original broad framework (first column), aligned to more specific grade-level expectations (second column), and correlated to assessment expectations (third column). Additionally, aligned lesson plans and pacing guides, for after reading comprehension for
7、mative assessments, are included as links on the CSDE website. These documents present the content, concepts, and skills that students need to be literate in the 21st century. The expectations, which are aligned with the Preschool Curriculum Framework, are clearly aligned with national standards of
8、the International Reading Association and the National Council of Teachers of English, and are similar in scope and sequence to the highly respected standards of California and Massachusetts. Educators representing districts across the state, the Regional Education Service Centers, professional orga
9、nizations, and higher education assisted in writing and reviewing the standards, which were then reviewed by the Leadership and Learning Center, Englewood, CO. StructureTo the extent possible, skills and strategies included in the Connecticut PreK-8 English Language Arts Curriculum Standards templat
10、e reflect a distinct progression from one grade level to the next. In general, however, literacy skills and strategies spiral across grade levels. Therefore, differentiation of instruction from grade to grade requires students apply a greater depth of knowledge to increasingly complex instructional
11、materials. It is imperative educators examine the grade level expectations of previous grades, their own grade taught, and succeeding grades. Grade level expectations are cumulative, and by the end of a particular grade level students should know and be able to do everything required up to and inclu
12、ding that grade level (e.g., at the end of grade four, GLE expectations include skills and strategies from pre-K through grade four). Teachers must continue to work with students who have not met prior years grade level expectations.Alignment and IntegrationThe Connecticut PreK-8 English Language Ar
