<em></em><em>"To reach their potential, children need an engaging environment and a reason to learn. This book is aimed at helping teachers implement quality Common Core instruction around this principle."</em><br /> <strong>-Gretchen Owocki</strong><br /> <br /> The quality of instruction is the most important factor in helping students meet the Common Core Standards. That's why<strong> Gretchen Owocki</strong>'s <em>Common Core Lesson Book</em> empowers teachers with a comprehensive framework for implementation that enhances existing curriculum and extends it to meet Common Core goals.<br /> <br /> "Children," writes Gretchen (author of The RTI Daily Planning Book), "need teachers who believe in the power of meaningful reading as a context for instruction." She breaks the CCSS reading standards into manageable chunks that emphasize engaged, authentic reading and differentiated teaching. For each standard, she offers:<br /> <ul> <li>a clear description of what it asks from students</li> <li>an instructional decision tree that connects assessment to planning</li> <li>instructional strategies that gradually release responsibility to students</li> <li>techniques for intensifying instruction when readers need more support.</li> </ul> <p>"In implementing the standards," writes Gretchen, "we want children to deeply engage with multiple forms of reading. I wrote this book to offer encouragement to stay grounded in meaningful instruction, and to offer a set of strategies that emphasize meaningful reading." Respond to the Common Core with The Common Core Lesson Book-you'll help students meet the standards, and so much more.<br /> <br /> </p>
