Some specific examples of correlations I found are listed below.
| ITES Standard | US History Essential Standards | ELA 9-12 Common Core Standard |
| 6.SI.1 | ||
| Evaluate resources needed to solve a problem. | AH1.H1.2 = Differentiate between historical facts and historical interpretations. | Reading Standards for Literature 6 - 12 - 1. Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text, including determining where the text leaves matters uncertain. |
| AH1.H.1.4 = Obtain historical data from a variety of sources | Speaking and Listening Standards 6 -12 - 2. Integrate multiple sources of information presented in diverse media or formats evaluating the credibility and accuracy of each source | |
| 6.TT.1 | ||
| Use technology and other resources for assigned tasks. | AH1.H.1.4 = Support interpretations with historical evidence | Writing Standards 6-12 - 6. Use technology, including the Internet, to produce, publish, and update individual or shared writing products in response to ongoing feedback, including new arguments or information. |
| Speaking and Listening Standards 6 -12 - 2. Integrate multiple sources of information presented in diverse media or formats evaluating the credibility and accuracy of each source | ||
| 6.RP.1 | ||

Hi, Keith!
ReplyDeleteYour analysis was so much more clear-cut and easier to read than my own. I like the way that you have organized the information in your post.

Hi, Keith,
ReplyDeleteI appreciate your use of the word "embed" when speaking of the Safety and Ethical Issues standards. So many students seem to already have the opposite view embedded in their behavior that is really difficult to get them turned around. Do you have any specific strategies for getting them on board?
Best,
Jenny Shepherd
Keith,
ReplyDeleteYour correlation of the ITES and Essential Standards is well written. What do you think would be the best way to teach teachers on implementing ITES in their curriculum?
Keith,
ReplyDeleteI very much like the way you have used a T-Chart approach to compare social studies and ELA. Your approach makes logical sense and seems to me a great place for our PLC (or whatever name they have this year) to begin a discussion when it comes to developing lesson plans. What I would like to see is more of this approach used at the county level before posting exemplar unit plans. Thanks so much.
