ACTIVITY: UNPACK THE ANCHOR STANDARDS
WELCOME!
Please: 1) Grab a folder 2) Read the 2 anchor standards (pg. 1) 3) Review the 5 Step Protocol for Unpacking a Standard (p. 1) 4) Unpack writing anchor standard 1 in the chart (p. 1) 5) Unpack writing anchor standard 2 in the chart (p.1)
Objectives:By the end of this session, I will be able to:
Unpack the ELA Literacy Anchor with writing standards 1 & 2.
Identify where writing aligned to the standard lives in your curriculum.
Evaluate student writing samples aligned to the CCSS.
Agenda:
Unpack the standards
Review LT samples of writing in the discipline
Evaluate the samples from the CCSS appendices
Discuss writing as it exists in your curriculum
Share an adjustment
LT students currently write in all disciplines.
SMALL ADJUSTMENTS TO OUR CURRENT ASSIGNMENTS CAN YIELD TIGHTER ALIGNMENT TO THE LITERACY ANCHOR STANDARDS WITH WRITING.

Relevance of the CCSS to my discipline?How is writing currently incorporated in your discipline?
What strategies, practices, or tools do you rely upon to teach writing?
After deconstructing the standards, how are they incorporated in your course/curriculum?
What assignments/assessments do you currently administer that provide evidence of student proficiency in regards to these standards? What weaknesses do you need to address in order to better align with the standards?
PLAN WITH THE STANDARDS IN MIND
What will be your small adjustment?
AS YOU PLAN FOR NEXT YEAR, WHAT UNIT/ ASSESSMENT/ LESSON/TASK CAN YOU ADJUST TO BE MORE TIGHTLY ALIGNED TO ANCHOR WRITING STANDARD 1 & 2?
