The curriculum map represents what is required in each quarter of instruction to ensure that all the standards are taught as a support for learning. Flexibility is given to the grade level PLC and teachers beyond the required texts and activities to add additional resources from Florida Collections or other outside sources to best support students’ learning needs. The VLT is the Volusia Literacy Test which will be given two times a year to assess student success with the LAFS. The DIA is the District Interim Assessment of Reading Standards which will be given 2 or 3 times per year. The Assessment of Standards (AOS) is a mastery assessment of the focus standards for the nine weeks taken from the Collections end-of-collection printable assessments.

During class discussion of what has been read, students should consistently be asked to find evidence from the text. This textual evidence should then be used in the students’ writing, research, discussions and presentations.

The study and application of vocabulary and grammar should take place within the context of what students read and write.

Grade 10 Language Arts Florida Standards Yearlong Learning Target Standards are bolded. These standards are highly assessed and represent major instructional shifts as required by the Language Arts Florida Standards. Italicized standards are those that require instructional awareness and are woven into the reading and writing process; however, they are not formally assessed. Strand: READING STANDARDS FOR LITERATURE

LAFS.910.RL.1.1 Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.

LAFS.910.RL.1.2 Determine a theme or central idea of a text and analyze in detail its development over the course of the text, including how it emerges and is shaped and refined by specific details; provide an objective summary of the text.

LAFS.910.RL.1.3 Analyze how complex characters (e.g., those with multiple or conflicting motivations) develop over the course of a text, interact with other characters, and advance the plot or develop the theme.

LAFS.910.RL.2.4 Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in the text, including figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone (e.g., how the language evokes a sense of time and place; how it sets a formal or informal tone).

LAFS.910.RL.2.5 Analyze how an author’s choices concerning how to structure a text, order events within it (e.g., parallel plots), and manipulate time (e.g., pacing, flashbacks) create such effects as mystery, tension, or surprise.

LAFS.910.RL.2.6 Analyze a particular point of view or cultural experience reflected in a work of literature from outside the United States, drawing on a wide reading of world literature.

LAFS.910.RL.3.7 Analyze the representation of a subject or a key scene in two different artistic mediums, including what is emphasized or absent in each treatment (e.g., Auden’s “Musée des Beaux Arts” and Breughel’s Landscape with the Fall of Icarus).

LAFS.910.RL.3.9 Analyze how an author draws on and transforms source material in a specific work (e.g., how Shakespeare treats a theme or topic from Ovid or the Bible or how a later author draws on a play by Shakespeare).

LAFS.910.RL.4.10

By the end of grade 9, read and comprehend literature, including stories, dramas, and poems, in the grades 9–10 text complexity band proficiently, with scaffolding as needed at the high end of the range.

LAFS.910.RI.2.4 Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative, and technical meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone (e.g., how the language of a court opinion differs from that of a newspaper).

LAFS.910.RI.2.5 Analyze in detail how an author’s ideas or claims are developed and refined by particular sentences, paragraphs, or larger portions of a text (e.g., a section or chapter).

LAFS.910.RI.2.6 Determine an author’s point of view or purpose in a text and analyze how an author uses rhetoric to advance that point of view or purpose.

LAFS.910.RI.3.7 Analyze various accounts of a subject told in different mediums (e.g., a person’s life story in both print and multimedia), determining which details are emphasized in each account.

LAFS.910.RI.3.8
