Topic 5 discussion 1:
Select one cross-curricular (math, science, or social studies) and one literacy standard for the K-12 grade level of your choice and list them along with the grade level. Write a grade level appropriate objective that aligns to both standards. Ensure that your objective follow the example provided and includes the following criteria.
Example:
Given an unlabeled map outlining the 50 states, students will label state names with 90% accuracy.
Who are the students?
What action verb will be measured?
How are students demonstrating their knowledge?
What is the anticipated accuracy of student performance?
In replies to peers, provide one another with feedback on how the objective could be clarified or improved.
Answer:
Certainly! Let’s create a cross-curricular objective for
Grade 4
that aligns with both
math
and
literacy
standards.
1.
Math Standard (Grade 4)
:
CCSS.Math.Content.4.NBT.B.4
: “Fluently add and subtract multi-digit whole numbers using the standard algorithm.”
2.
Literacy Standard (Grade 4)
:
CCSS.ELA-Literacy.RI.4.1
: “Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.”
Objective
: Given a
word problem
involving multi-digit addition or subtraction, students will
solve the problem using the standard algorithm
and
explain their reasoning
by referring to specific details and examples from the text. Students will demonstrate their knowledge by providing a
written explanation
with
80% accuracy
in terms of both mathematical correctness and clarity of communication.
