Directions: Select one ELP standard from each strand (speaking and listening, reading, writing) from your state department website, record the standard in the chart. Then correlate the ELP standard with the correct Common Core Standard in Language Arts. Finally, list one teaching activity to successfully achieve these standards.

Teaching Activity

Listening and Speaking:

ELP.K.2

participate in grade- appropriate oral and written exchanges of information, ideas, and analyses, responding to peer, audience, or reader comments and questions. (OSPI, 2019)

CCSS.SL.1

Participate in collaborative conversations with diverse partners about Kindergarten topics and texts with peers and adults in small and larger groups. a. Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g., listening to others and taking turns speaking about the topics and texts under discussion). b. Continue a conversation through multiple exchanges (OSPI, 2019).

Gather student to the center time carpet and sit knee to knee elbow to elbow to reinforce that they are seeing each other and need to stay focus at the partner. To help things stay fun tell the partners one person will be peanut butter the other will be jelly. Tell the class that peanut butter speaks while jelly listens and then vise versa.

Reading:

ELP.K.1

construct meaning from oral presentations and literary and informational text through grade- appropriate listening, reading, and viewing (OSPI, 2019).

CCSS.RL.3

With prompting and support, identify characters, settings, and major events in a story (OSPI, 2019).

Have the students all gather at the center carpet. The teacher will read a story book that is at grade level as well as the common reading level of the class. During the reading the teacher can stop at the page and ask students individually to identify the characters on the page as long with what is happening. At the end of the story students should return to their tables and draw a picture that identifies the main character with the setting they understood from the story.

Writing:

ELP.K.3

speak and write about grade-appropriate complex literary and informational texts and topics (OSPI, 2019).

CCSS.W.3

Use a combination of drawing, dictating, and writing to narrate a single event or several loosely linked events, tell about the events in the order in which they occurred, and provide a reaction to what happened (OSPI, 2019)

Having the students at their work table, I will have them use their crayons or markers and draw about their favorite memory at home or school. I will them ask them one by one to share that event from start to finish. Data will be recorded in their student folder.
