Common Core and ProQuest Resources
This one hour class will focus on the new Common Core standards and how they align to Proquest. With an emphasis on informational text, these standards require a focus on reading literacy across the curriculum and an emphasis on critical thinking, persuasion and analysis. The inclusion of primary sources and reference material and the addition of complex text that extends beyond the textbook can be found in Proquest resources. We have included essential questions and editorially created essential pages to provide context for learning. Our general reference databases provide an integrated model of literacy, a variety of integrated tools like lexiles for reading differentiation, My Analysis, graphic notecards and much more will be covered.
