Cultural Resources:• Add real-world relevance
• Create a sense of community
•Meet standards
WHY CULTURAL RESOURCES?
![Page 6: Expanding the definition of text](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102804/546d4d25af7959ea108b5c3b/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Anchor Standard for Reading #7, Speaking and Listening #2:
Integrate and evaluate information presented in diverse media and formats, including visually, quantitatively,
and orally
WHY CULTURAL RESOURCES?MEETS ELA STANDARDSAnchor Standard for Responding to Literature
#11: Develop personal, cultural, textual, and thematic
connections within and across genres as they respond to texts through written, digital, and oral presentations,
employing a variety of media and genres.
From the ELA Common Core Regents Test Guide:Literature texts could include: stories, drama, and poetry.
Informational texts could include: […] personal essays, speeches, opinion pieces, essays about art or literature, biographies, memoirs,
journalism, and historical, scientific, technical, or economic accounts…)

WHY CULTURAL RESOURCES?
MEETS SS STANDARDSGathering and Using Evidence
Identify, describe, and evaluate evidence about events from diverse
sources (including written documents, works of art, photographs, charts and graphs, artifacts, oral traditions, and
other primary and secondary sources).

Arts Standard 3—Responding to & Analyzing Works of Art
Students will respond critically to a variety of works in the arts, connecting the individual work to other works and to other aspects of human endeavor and thought.
WHY CULTURAL RESOURCES?MEETS ART STANDARDS
Arts Standard 4––Understanding the Cultural Dimensions
and Contributions of the Arts Students will develop an understanding of the personal and cultural forces that shape artistic communication and how the arts in turn shape the diverse cultures of
past and present society.

UNITS VS. MODULES• Found on Engage NY• Units were created first, before the
modules– Provide the structure and the tools (e.g.,
using details to make a claim tool)• Units are more flexible
“Reading closely for textual details” is the foundational literacy activity.

Second text: • Read closely to yourself, underlining important
words and noting the gist in the margin
• Explain the gist to your partner, using evidence from the text to back it up
• Text dependent question:“What conditions does the author suggest contributed to the catastrophic nature of the fire?” • Now, return to the photo and write a caption

Text 1: noted details, made inferences, generated your own text-dependent questions
Text 2: noted details, made inferences, and then synthesized information from 2 sources
“No initial context is provided.” Odell Reading Closely Units
Question: What is the value in this approach vs. starting with an encyclopedic text?

DO?

Key points
Constructivist learning: “…encourages students to use active techniques…to create more knowledge and then to reflect on and talk about what they are doing and how their understanding is changing” - “Constructivism as a Paradigm for Teaching and Learning.” Thirteen Ed Online
• Students are the “detectives” or explorers• Evidence-based discussions help them shape
and reshape their own understanding. • All are engaged.• The text levels the playing field.

• “Discovery Points”: Selected texts have connected facts and ideas that enable students to build knowledge in the topic/subject area
• Increasing complexity: Simpler texts “bootstrap” students to more complex texts

READING “TEXTS”
![Page 29: Expanding the definition of text](https://reader038.vdocuments.net/reader038/viewer/2022102804/546d4d25af7959ea108b5c3b/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
A WORD ABOUT TEXT SELECTION…
All texts should display:• Craft: at a level that is noteworthy and or widely recognized• Significance: the text is seminal or influential in its respective genre• Content: the text contains ideas or themes that are interesting, engaging,
provocative, and significant• Selected texts need not have all three of these criteria, but the standards demand
that some of them are present in selected texts.
Informational texts should display:• Relevant and accurate content• A clear point of view and/or purpose• A discernible main idea and a developed and clear organizational structure• Any argumentation in the text should contain claims supported by evidence in the
text
Literary texts should display:• Significant themes that can support analysis• A developed and clear narrative structure• A clearly discernible point of view• Again, selected informational and literary texts need not have all of these criteria,
but the standards demand that some of them are present in selected texts.
