Literature and Information

Academic standards

Oklahoma does not use Common Core standards. We are in the process of writing new objectives. I include CCSS for those who might want them—specifically grades nine and ten because they translate vertically to grades above and below easily. I also include our soon-to-be-replaced state objectives. This unit covers a broad selection of reading, writing, and thinking objectives, and regardless of the standards documented, any language arts teacher will understand that it would be easy to adjust the unit to include more specific or additional objectives.
