The belief that students need listening and speaking practice with the language before considering reading is no longer true; text-complexity can be integrated at every level. In the past, teachers gave students text at their instructional level and asked basic comprehension questions about text and students gave their opinions or relied on personal experiences to answer questions. ESL teachers also simplified text by breaking down complex sentences into simple sentences and used resources such as word lists to help control the vocabulary and predict the problems students will face when they read or write. Now, teachers must provide regular practice with complex text to challenge students and help them navigate and understand complex text. Instruction will ensure students are answering more text-dependent questions that require more evidence-based comprehension questions and require students to dig deeply in their material to understand the text. This levels the learning because all students are using the same information to provide their answers and it does not give the advantage to students with more knowledge or personal experience with a certain topic. Instead, all students will have to rely on the language and mechanics of the text itself. With the use of these instructional strategies, students will develop the habit for making arguments based …show more content…

Group activities that focus on employment are a great way to integrate CCR Standards. An example of this is the following group activity on researching a career they would like to have in the future: Collaborating in teams, students brainstorm a list of questions to research about a particular job and record the information on a guided note-taking template. Student groups give oral presentations in front of the class. During the presentations, they cite references and use academic language. Other class members take notes using the same, guided note-taking template. Based on the information shared, class members evaluate and discuss career preferences. The group activity can easily be adapted for Beginning-level ESL

Whether I was writing an argument, a rhetorical analysis, or synthesis, I would always get a 5 just because I didn’t explain or go into detail on my examples. I never once got a 6 just because I didn’t go into more detail on how that example worked. Detail always played a huge role outside of the classroom as well. I can’t even count how many arguments I got in with friends this year. Most of the argument were over small stupid things that wouldn’t matter in the end.

Today there is a huge debate between Common Core Standards and the Alabama College and Career Readiness Standards. These two standards are highly debated and investigated amongst teachers, government officials, and parents to understand which standards will enhance student’s academic knowledge. Some state political boards do not agree with the new adoption if the Common Core Standards. After researching both standards and gaining my own opinion, I think to adopt the new Common Core Standards is a positive thing for our school systems. Even though it has some negative like difficult transition for students, standards are vague, and unequal access to technology in the classroom and at home (Meador, 2017).
