W.3.2 Write informative/explanatory texts to examine a topic and convey ideas and information clearly. Production and Distribution of Writing Produce clear and coherent writing in which the W.CCR.4 development, organization, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. With guidance and support from adults, produce writing in which the development and organization are W.3.4 appropriate to task and purpose. (Grade-specific expectations for writing types are defined in standards 1-3 above.) W.CCR.5 Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a new approach. W.3.5 With guidance and support from peers and adults, develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, and editing. (Editing for conventions should demonstrate command of Language standards 1-3 up to and including grade 3.) LEGOeducation.us 1

2 W.CCR.7 W.3.7 SL.CCR.1 SL.3.1 Writing Standards (W) CONT. Research to Build and Present Knowledge Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects based on focused questions, demonstrating understanding of the subject under investigation. Conduct short research projects that build knowledge about a topic. Speaking and Listening (SL) Comprehension and Collaboration Prepare for and participate effectively in a range of conversations and collaborations with diverse partners, building on others' ideas and expressing their own clearly and persuasively. Engage effectively in a range of collaborative discussions (one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led), with diverse partners on grade 3 topics and texts, building on others' ideas and expressing their own clearly. SL.3.1.a SL.3.1.b Come to discussions prepared, having read or studied required material; explicitly draw on that preparation and other information known about the topic to explore ideas under discussion. Follow agreed-upon rules for discussions (e.g., gaining the floor in respectful ways, listening to others with care, speaking one at a time about the topics and texts under discussion).

3 SL.3.1.c SL.3.1.d SL.CCR.2 SL.CCR.3 Speaking and Listening (SL) CONT. Ask questions to check understanding of information presented, stay on topic, and link their comments to the remarks of others. Explain their own ideas and understanding in light of the discussion. Integrate and evaluate information presented in diverse media and formats, including visually, quantitatively, and orally. Evaluate a speaker's point of view, reasoning, and use of evidence and rhetoric. SL.3.3 Ask and answer questions about information from a speaker, offering appropriate elaboration and detail. Presentation of Knowledge and Ideas SL.CCR.4 SL.CCR.5 Present information, findings, and supporting evidence such that listeners can follow the line of reasoning and the organization, development, and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. Make strategic use of digital media and visual displays of data to express information and enhance understanding of presentations. SL.3.6 Speak in complete sentences when appropriate to task and situation in order to provide requested detail or clarification. (See grade 3 Language standards 1 and 3 for specific expectations.)

4 Conventions of Standard English Language (L) L.CCR.1 Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking. Language (L) CONT. L.3.1 Demonstrate command of the conventions of standard English grammar and usage when writing or speaking. Vocabulary Acquisition and Use L.CCR.4 Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrases by using context clues, analyzing meaningful word parts, and consulting general and specialized reference materials, as appropriate. L.3.4 Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning word and phrases based on grade 3 reading and content, choosing flexibly from a range of strategies. Common Core State Standards for Mathematics Measurement and Data (MD) Geometric measurement: understand concepts of area and relate area to multiplication and to addition. 3.MD.5 Recognize area as an attribute of plane figures and understand concepts of area measurement.

5 Reason with shapes and their attributes. Geometry (G) 3.G.1 3.G.2 Understand that shapes in different categories (e.g., rhombuses, rectangles, and others) may share attributes (e.g., having four sides), and that the shared attributes can define a larger category (e.g., quadrilaterals). Recognize rhombuses, rectangles, and squares as examples of quadrilaterals, and draw examples of quadrilaterals that do not belong to any of these subcategories. Geometry (G) CONT. Partition shapes into parts with equal areas. Express the area of each part as a unit fraction of the whole. For example, partition a shape into 4 parts with equal area, and describe the area of each part as 1/4 of the area of the shape. LEGOeducation.us 5
