Demonstrated Proficiency of ELA.1.9.C
Use a rubric to monitor student progress. Students should be able to identify the central idea and provide supporting evidence with the prompting of a teacher. While reading a text in a whole group or small-group context, the teacher can prompt students by asking questions.
Examples:
- What is the most important thing that happened in the text? What are three details that tell you that?
- What is the most important point about this topic? What details tell you that?
Sample rubric:
- The student is unable to identify the central idea or provide supporting evidence even with adult assistance.
- The student is able to identify the central idea but is unable to provide supporting evidence even with adult assistance.
- The student is able to identify the central idea and inconsistently provides supporting evidence with adult assistance.
- The student is able to identify the central idea and is able to provide supporting evidence with adult assistance.
