So the question is What is your role in graduating all students
career and college ready?
Slide 3
College Readiness: Grade 11 ELA Write arguments to support
claim(s) in an analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid
reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence Introduce precise
knowledgeable claims(s), establish the significance of the
claim(s), distinguish the claim(s) from alternate or opposing
claims, and create an organization that logically sequences
claim(s), counterclaim(s), reasons and evidence. Develop claim(s)
and counterclaim(s) fairly and thoroughly, supplying the most
relevant evidence for each while pointing out the strengths and
limitations of both in a manner that anticipates the audiences
knowledge level, concerns, values, and possible biases.
Slide 4
How are your assessments & lessons developed? Claims Design
begins with the inferences (claims) we want to make about students
Evidence In order to support claims, we must gather evidence Tasks

students create a training book for the weight room with
instructions for proper technique
