Task: In groups of 3, examine 1 standard and look for the skills you believe students will need to meet it. Record your observations and be ready to share out with larger group. Writing 6 (grades 6-12) Writing 7 (grades 6-12) Writing 8 (grades 6-12) Speaking & Listening 5 (grades 6-12) RH 2 (6-8, 9-12) RH 9 (6-8, 9-12) RST 1 (6-8, 9-10, 11-12) RST 7 (6-8, 9-10, 11-12) WHST 7 (6-8, 9-10, 11-12) WHST 8 (6-8, 9-10, 11-12)

6th W.6.8 Gather relevant information from multiple print and digital sources; assess the credibility of each source; and quote or paraphrase the data and conclusions of others while avoiding plagiarism and providing basic bibliographic information for sources. Formal lessons necessary prior: - sources(databases, google searches, print,video) - determining relevancy - evaluating credibility of sources - quotes(picking the powerful statement) - paraphrasing lessons - drawing conclusions - plagiarism - citations -- in-text & bibliography

INQUIRY Remember Levels 1, 2, 3 Questions and DOK Levels from day camp? Created by students Core/Essential questions are critical Structure Learning with Essential Questions

RST 7 Integrate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text with a version of that information expressed visually (e.g., in a flowchart, diagram, model, graph, or table). Costello, Emily. "Turkey power: could turkey dung power your town?" SuperScience Apr. 2008: 12+. Science in Context.

RST 7 (9-10) Translate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text into visual form (e.g., a table or chart) and translate information expressed visually or mathematically (e.g., in an equation) into words. Part 1: Compare the data from two graphs in the next slide and write a summary of the differences between the two countries.

Comparison of Energy Consumption in US and China

RST 7 (9-10) Translate quantitative or technical information expressed in words in a text into visual form (e.g., a table or chart) and translate information expressed visually or mathematically (e.g., in an equation) into words. Part 2: Use this handout for a short burst assignment.

RST 7 (11-12) Integrate and evaluate multiple sources of information presented in diverse formats and media (e.g., quantitative data, video, multimedia) in order to address a question or solve a problem. Student-generated essential questions! Provide Starters: “Which one” questions ask students to collect information and make informed decisions. Instead of asking me to “do a report on Philadelphia,” ask me to decide which city in the Mid-Atlantic region is the best place to live. Instead of “Do a report on AIDS,” ask me which serious disease most deserves research funding. “How” questions ask students to understand problems, to weigh options, perhaps from various points of view, and propose solutions. Instead of asking me to do a report on pollution, ask me to propose a solution to an environmental problem in my neighborhood. Ask me how I would invest a windfall of money.

More Starters “What if,” or hypothetical questions ask students to use the knowledge they have to pose a hypothesis and consider options. “What if the Declaration of Independence abolished slavery?” or “What if the Germans hadn’t sunk the Lusitania?” “Should” questions ask students to make moral or practical decision based on evidence. “Should we clone humans?” or “Should we discontinue trade with China?” “Why” questions ask students to understand cause and effect. “Why” helps us understand relationships; it helps us get to the essence of an issue. “Why do people abuse children?” or “Why is the mortality rate higher in one Third World country than another?” (Adapted from: Valenza, Joyce Kasman. “For the Best Answers, Ask Tough Questions.” The Philadelphia Inquirer 19 Apr July )

RST 7 (11-12) Integrate and evaluate multiple sources of information presented in diverse formats and media (e.g., quantitative data, video, multimedia) in order to address a question or solve a problem. Sample essential question for an alternative energy “short burst” research assignment: What is the best form of alternative energy for wide use in the United States over the next 100 years? Support your claim using a variety of types of credible sources.

Writing 7: Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects based on focused questions, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation. Example #1 of a short research project: Choose a county in WA state. Would you want to move to the county? Support your position using recreational, economic and geographic information. Use official county websites. Skill– Note taking: extracting important information from sources. Cornell notes Three column notes Graphic organizers *essential question written at the top of the page

Whitman County, WA

Example #2 of a short research project: Student search and seizure: How are student’s individual right balanced with school safety? Evaluate two-three sources. Choose two and why? Skill – Website evaluation: checklist/

Example #3 of a short research project: What has been the environmental impact of dammed rivers in Washington State? Skill: In text citations: Tool: compatible Your turn! Develop an inquiry question that supports curriculum in your school. Choose a source and an appropriate note taking format.

RH 2: Determine the central ideas or information of a primary or secondary source; provide an accurate summary of the source distinct from prior knowledge or opinions. Example of Primary Source Analysis and Summary: What can we learn about specific events in American History by examining primary source materials?

Further Investigation/Summary: Summarize your discoveries, using evidence from the text/source to support your ideas. Choose one question you have that you may want to further investigate.
