Implement the Common Core for ELA without all the stress
A Non-Freaked Out Guide to Teaching the Common Core uses
the often-neglected anchor standards to get to the heart of the
Common Core State Standards (CCSS)–teaching students the
skills they need to be college and career ready. Each anchor
standard is broken down into its key points, and a discussion of
each anchor standard’s central purpose helps outline the context
for each required skill. This easy-to-read guide gives educators
the kind of clear explanations, examples, and strategies they need
to feel comfortable teaching the CCSS, and shows how CCSS skills
can be integrated into virtually any existing lesson plan.
Getting a firm grasp of the anchor standards is the quickest way
to start teaching the key concepts of the CCSS, and this
user-friendly guide is designed to pave the way for both the
first-time teacher and the experienced pro.
