COMMON CORE STANDARDS

English Language Arts Standards in Grade 11-12 number 1 will be utilized in reading the texts about fusion. Students will cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to important distinctions the author makes and to any gaps or inconsistencies in the account. This will involve the argument about whether fusion is likely to be a reality in their life time.

English Language Arts Standards in Grade 11-12 number 2 will determine the central ideas or conclusions of a text; summarize complex concepts, processes, or information presented in a text by paraphrasing them in simpler but still accurate terms. This is essential to decipher the complex fusion texts.

English Language Arts Standards in Grade 11-12 number 3 will be utilized in the experiment of Creative Design. The students will follow precisely a complex multistep procedure when carrying out experiments, taking measurements, or performing technical tasks; analyze the specific results based on explanations in the text.
