Key Shifts in English Language Arts• Regular practice with complex texts and their
academic language• Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in
evidence from texts, both literary and informational• Building knowledge through content-rich
nonfiction
![Page 5: SUSD Department of Educational Services](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813af1550346895da36b7c/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Key Shifts in Mathematics
• Greater focus on fewer topics• Coherence: linking topics and thinking across
grades• Rigor: pursue conceptual understanding,
procedural skills and fluency, and application with equal intensity
![Page 6: SUSD Department of Educational Services](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062422/56813af1550346895da36b7c/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Next Generation Science Standards• Practices describe behaviors that scientists engage in as they
investigate and build models and theories about the natural world and the key set of engineering practices that engineers use as they design and build models and systems.
• Crosscutting concepts• application across all domains of science (ie., Patterns, similarity,
and diversity; Cause and effect)• Disciplinary Core Ideas:• Broad importance across multiple sciences• Provide a key tool for understanding • Relate interests and life experiences of students• Be teachable and learnable over multiple grades at increasing
levels of depth
