1 M/J Language Arts 3 and M/J Language Arts 3, Advanced Grade 8 Curriculum Map The following curriculum map is based on the Language Arts Florida Standards (LAFS), which are listed at the beginning of the map and can be accessed at The main resource for the support of instruction is the Florida Collections textbook series and digital platform found at Required texts and assignments are found in the Collections listed in the table below. Grade Level Quarter 1 Quarter 2 Quarter 3 Quarter 4 8 Collection 4: Approaching Adulthood Collection 5: Anne Frank s Legacy Play: The Diary of Anne Frank Collection 3: The Move Toward Freedom Collection 2: The Thrill of Horror Required Assessments PT: Multimedia Campaign DIA: Assessment of Reading 1 VLT 1: Argumentative Essay DIA: Assessment of Reading 2 VLT 2: Informative Essay PT: Literary Analysis PT: Narrative PT: Media Activity Novel Study Second semester: Dr. Jekyll & Mr. Hyde, The Fall of the House of Usher, The Giver, or an appropriate ELA Department/PLC/Grade Level -based selection which does not conflict with reading courses. The curriculum map represents what is required in each quarter of instruction to ensure all standards are taught as a support for learning. Flexibility is given to the grade level PLC and teachers beyond the required texts and activities to add additional resources from Florida Collections or other outside sources to best support students learning needs. In the advanced course, teachers will provide students with additional rigorous reading and writing experiences beyond what is contained in the map. The VLT is the Volusia Literacy Test which will be given two times a year to assess student success with the LAFS. The DIA is the District Interim Assessment of Reading Standards which will be given 2 or 3 times per year. The PT is a Performance Task which will assess student success with specific LAFS linked to a particular unit of the Florida Collections textbook. During class discussion of what has been read, students should consistently be asked to find evidence from the text. This textual evidence should then be used in the students writing, research, discussions and presentations. The study and application of vocabulary and grammar should take place within the context of what students read and write M/J Language Arts 3 and M/J Language Arts 3, Advanced, Grade 8 Curriculum Map 1
2 Grade 8 Language Arts Florida Standards Yearlong Target Standards are bolded. These standards are highly assessed and represent major instructional shifts as required by the Language Arts Florida Standards. Italicized standards are those that require instructional awareness and are woven into the reading and writing process; however, they are not formally assessed. LAFS.8.RL.1.1 LAFS.8.RL.1.2 LAFS.8.RL.1.3 LAFS.8.RL.2.4 LAFS.8.RL.2.5 LAFS.8.RL.2.6 LAFS.8.RL.3.7 LAFS.8.RL.3.9 LAFS.8.RL.4.10 Strand: READING STANDARDS FOR LITERATURE Cite the textual evidence that most strongly supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. Determine a theme or central idea of a text and analyze its development over the course of the text, including its relationship to the characters, setting, and plot; provide an objective summary of the text. Analyze how particular lines of dialogue or incidents in a story or drama propel the action, reveal aspects of a character, or provoke a decision. Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone, including analogies or allusions to other texts. Compare and contrast the structure of two or more texts and analyze how the differing structure of each text contributes to its meaning and style. Analyze how differences in the points of view of the characters and the audience or reader (e.g., created through the use of dramatic irony) create such effects as suspense or humor. Analyze the extent to which a filmed or live production of a story or drama stays faithful to or departs from the text or script, evaluating the choices made by the director or actors. Analyze how a modern work of fiction draws on themes, patterns of events, or character types from myths, traditional stories, or religious works such as the Bible, including describing how the material is rendered new. By the end of the year, read and comprehend literature, including stories, dramas, and poems, in the grades 6 8 text complexity band proficiently, with scaffolding as needed at the high end of the range.

Analyze how a text makes connections among and distinctions between individuals, ideas, or events (e.g., through comparisons, analogies, or categories). Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a text, including figurative, connotative, and technical meanings; analyze the impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone, including analogies or allusions to other texts. Analyze in detail the structure of a specific paragraph in a text, including the role of particular sentences in developing and refining a key concept. Determine an author s point of view or purpose in a text and analyze how the author acknowledges and responds to conflicting evidence or viewpoints. Evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of using different mediums (e.g., print or digital text, video, multimedia) to present a particular topic or idea. Delineate and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, assessing whether the reasoning is sound and the evidence is relevant and sufficient; recognize when irrelevant evidence is introduced. Analyze a case in which two or more texts provide conflicting information on the same topic and identify where the texts disagree on matters of fact or interpretation. By the end of the year, read and comprehend literary nonfiction at the high end of the grades 6 8 text complexity band independently and proficiently M/J Language Arts 3 and M/J Language Arts 3, Advanced, Grade 8 Curriculum Map 2

Come to discussions prepared, having read or studied required material under study; explicitly draw on that preparation by referring to evidence on the topic, text, or issue to probe and reflect on ideas under discussion. Follow rules for collegial discussions and decision making, track progress toward specific goals and deadlines, and define individual roles as needed. Pose questions that connect the ideas of several speakers and respond to others questions and comments with relevant evidence, observations, and ideas. Acknowledge new information expressed by others, and, when warranted, qualify or justify their own views in light of the evidence presented.

Use context (e.g., the overall meaning of a sentence or paragraph; a word s position or function in a sentence) as a clue to the meaning of a word or phrase. Use common, grade-appropriate Greek or Latin affixes and roots as clues to the meaning of a word (e.g., precede, recede, secede). Consult general and specialized reference materials (e.g., dictionaries, glossaries, thesauruses), both print and digital, to find the pronunciation of a word or determine or clarify its precise meaning or its part of speech. Verify the preliminary determination of the meaning of a word or phrase (e.g., by checking the inferred meaning in context or in a dictionary). Demonstrate understanding of figurative language, word relationships, and nuances in word meanings. Interpret figures of speech (e.g., verbal irony, puns) in context. Use the relationship between particular words to better understand each of the words. Distinguish among the connotations (associations) of words with similar denotations (definitions) (e.g., bullheaded, willful, firm, persistent, resolute). Acquire and use accurately grade-appropriate general academic and domain-specific words and phrases; gather vocabulary knowledge when considering a word or phrase important to comprehension or expression M/J Language Arts 3 and M/J Language Arts 3, Advanced, Grade 8 Curriculum Map 5
