2010 Alabama Course of Study:English Language Arts
The ELA content standards are based on and include all standards in the 2010 CCSS as well as supplemental content designed to strengthen the standards for Alabama’s students.
The goal of the 2010 ELA COS is for all students to achieve English language literacy in order to be college and career ready.
The 2010 ELA Task Force included all Common Core State Standards and added content from the 2007 Alabama Course of Study: English Language Arts.
Some standards from the CCSS were altered or moved from one grade to another in the senior high grades to align with the history being studied in Alabama social studies courses. ALSDE
A Little Clarification about Common Core Acronyms
To be clear, they are one of the same.
•CC: Common Core•CCSS: Common Core State Standards•CCRS: College and Career Readiness
Standards
•ALCOS: Alabama Course of Study▫The 2010 ALCOS standards equals the
CCSS plus a few added standards.
Where We Want To BeStudents who are college and career ready …
•Demonstrate independence •Build strong content knowledge•Respond to varying demands of audience,
task, purpose, and discipline•Comprehend as well as critique•Use technology and digital media

Reading Literature Strand
Reading Literature standards address a
wide range of abilities across grades.•In the early grades, standards require retelling stories with key details and describing characters and settings.
•In the senior high grades, standards require the ability to analyze the development of a theme over the course of a text.
ALSDE
Reading Informational Text Strand
Reading Informational Text standards:•Are of equal importance to those in the
Reading Literature strand.•Are essential to developing skills students
use throughout their years in school and careers.
•Are often identical to literature standards but must be applied to informational text.
Many standards are identical to literature standards but must be applied to informational text in each grade.
ALSDE
Reading Foundations Strand
Reading Foundations standards are included in Grades K-5 only. These standards:
•Include the wide range of processes from early letter/sound recognition to the more complex knowledge of roots and affixes.
•Include the use of context clues.•Include fluent reading with accuracy and expression.
ALSDE
Writing StrandWriting standards: •Are demanding even in the early grades.•Present clear and specific expectations for opinion pieces, informative or explanatory text, and narrative text.
•Emphasize shared research projects and use of digital tools as important elements in this strand throughout the grades.
ALSDE
Language Strand
Language standards:•Require early understanding and
application of the conventions of Standard English.
•Require knowledge of language and its conventions be applied to writing, speaking, reading, and listening.
•Emphasize vocabulary development.
ALSDE
Speaking and Listening Strand
Speaking and Listening standards:•Require students to collaborate for both comprehension and presentation.
•Emphasize preparation for discussion. •Require students to adapt speech to a variety of contexts and tasks which they apply in all subject areas and life endeavors.

Alignment Between 2007 COS Standards and the CCSS
•A comparison of the 2007 Alabama COS standards and the CCS standards shows some movement of content from one grade level to another.
ALSDE
Movement to a Later Grade
Moved from Grade 6 to Grade 9:
•Use a semicolon (and perhaps a conjunctive adverb) to link two or more closely related independent clauses.
ALSDE
Movement to an Earlier Grade
Moved from Grade 6 to Grade 5:•Identifying figurative language•Using context clues
Moved from Grade 6 to Grade 3:•Using transitional words/linking words
ALSDE
Vertical Alignment•Sometimes called a learning trajectory
•Refers to how core knowledge and skills are developed over time through grade-level standards that are related but with gradually increasing complexity▫Complexity of the performance task ▫Complexity of the text

Literacy in History/Social Studies,
Science, and Technical Subjects
6-12
ALSDE
The literacy standards in the appendices of the 2010 ELA and Math courses of study (and that will be in the new science COS) are not just for ELA teachers. Nor are they just for math instruction. They are for social studies, science, math, and other technical teachers and students in courses such as those offered in career tech.
Implementation
•Math- 2012-2013•ALL others- 2013-2014
ALSDE
Why literacy standards in all subjects?
•The percent of “proficient” readers had actually declined to a statistically significant degree from 1992 (15 percent).
•This low and declining achievement rate may be connected to a general lack of reading.
