Literacy in All Subjects

Hello again! Did you know that there are CCSS specifically designed to integrate literacy across all school subjects? A huge shift in the CCSS is the push to increase literacy skills and activities, such as writing, reading, speaking, and listening, into subjects besides reading and language arts themselves. This will improve students' abilities and help them become better rounded students that are prepared for the literacy demands outside of school. There are literacy standards created for all grades throughout school. It is vital as an educator that we put these standards into our lesson plans and teach accordingly. To find out more visit the handbook for the CCSS- Literacy in All Subjects.
