Common Core

Article here
With Common Core coming to the state of Michigan and elsewhere across the United States, I found this article to be helpful for thinking about next year.  It provides good tips on how to use the Common Core and links to use in your classroom, I personally love rubistar4teachers.org.  My district has been pushing informational reading in the classroom and it is something I am going to try and incorporate more of next year!

  1. Good article! I particularly like the section on teaching argument over persuasion. Thank you for sharing.. also into finding resources and new ways to push these things and align the Common Core

  2. I also found this article pretty helpful! Thanks for sharing; I have shared it with my school improvement committee, as we are focusing heavily on the Common Core for next year. I agree with MsPage that the section on teaching argument over persuasion is important...a lot of people don't realize the difference!
