This resource bundle aligns with the Key Ideas and Details standards of the Common Core State Standards for Grade 5 Reading: Literature. We have combined four of our playlists—content-rich tools that use trusted textual, audio, visual, and multimedia resources to supplement high-quality instruction in specific elements of the Common Core—to guide students through each of the relevant standards for this strand of English Language Arts. (Standard RL.5.2 is covered across two playlists: one focuses on characters in stories and dramas; the other focuses on topics in poetry.) Each playlist is designed for 30-45 minutes of instructional time and is followed by a rigorous self-check for students. Alternatively you could assign individual student playlists as homework or remedial/extension activities. The bundle includes additional passages on which students can practice their reading skills, including the ability to draw inferences from a text, to determine how characters respond to challenges, to reflect on a poem’s topic, and to compare and contrast elements of stories and dramas. Stepped-out examples and hyperlinks to videos, graphic organizers, and other activities further support instruction. The Student Edition includes: • 14 links to instructional videos, audio, or texts • 8 links to practice quizzes or activities • 4 assessments that include 20 multiple choice questions • Definitions of key terms, such as explicit, theme, and contrast • Examples of how students can apply the standards to their reading and deepen their understanding of what they are reading • Excerpts from several high-quality texts, including: - “Black Beauty” by Anna Sewell - “Beautiful Joe” by Marshall Saunders - “How I Learned to Ride” by Leo Tolstoy - “The Ugly Duckling” by August Stevenson - “Heidi” by Johanna Spyri - “The Diamond Necklace” by Guy de Maupassant The Teacher Guide includes: • Additional activities and writing prompts to help your students explore the standard • Links to 8 additional resources • Ideas to differentiate the activities for students who need extra support or to be challenged further • Answer guides with correct answers, answer choice rationales, word counts, and DOK levels
