1 TEKS Alignment For Fun-Size Academic Writing by Gretchen Bernabei and Judi Reimer TEKS Alignment by Gina Graham
2 Dear Teachers, The TEKS alignment for Fun-Size Academic Writing for Serious Learning is intended to support teachers as they plan for writing instruction. The TEKS shown for each lesson follows the lesson as it is presented ( Activity for your class and Challenge for students ). However, as the classroom teacher you may decide to extend the lesson by completing the writing process. Below are the TEKS for each stage of the writing process. It is important for students to write each day, coupled with regular opportunities to revise, edit and publish their work. The lessons are Fun-Size because writing is (and should be) FUN! 3.17A & 4.15A plan a first draft by selecting a genre appropriate for conveying the intended meaning to an audience and generating ideas through a range a brainstorming, graphic organizers, logs, journals) 5.15A, 6.14A, 7.14A & 8.14A plan a first draft by selecting a genre appropriate for conveying the intended meaning to an audience, determining appropriate topics through a range a discussion, background reading, personal interests, interviews), and developing a thesis or controlling idea Eng. I 13A, Eng. II 13A, Eng. III 13A & Eng. IV 13A plan a first draft by selecting the correct genre for conveying the intended meaning to multiple audiences, determining appropriate topics through a range a discussion, background reading, personal interests, interviews), and developing a thesis or controlling idea 3.17B & 4.15B develop drafts by categorizing ideas and organizing them into paragraphs 5.15B, 6.14B, 7.14B & 7.14B develop drafts by choosing an appropriate organizational strategy (e.g., sequence of events, cause-effect, compare-contrast) and building on ideas to create a focused, organized, and coherent piece of writing Eng. 1 13B, Eng. II 13B, Eng. III 13B, Eng. IV 13B structure ideas in a sustained and persuasive way (e.g., using outlines, note taking, graphic organizers, lists) and develop drafts in timed and open-ended situations that include transitions and the rhetorical devices used to convey meaning 3.17C & 4.15C revise drafts for coherence, organization, use of simple and compound sentences, and audience 5. 15C & 6.14C revise drafts to clarify meaning, enhance style, include simple and compound sentences, and improve transitions by adding, deleting, combining, and rearranging sentences or larger units of text after rethinking how well questions of purpose, audience, and genre have been addressed 7. 14C & 8.14C revise drafts to ensure precise word choice and vivid images; consistent point of view; use of simple, compound, and complex sentences; internal and external coherence; and the use of effective transitions after rethinking how well questions of purpose, audience; and genre have been addressed Eng. I 13C & Eng. II 13C revise drafts to improve style, word choice, figurative language, sentence variety, and subtlety of meaning after rethinking how well questions of purpose, audience, and genre have been addressed Eng. III 13C & Eng. IV 13C revise drafts to clarify meaning and achieve specific rhetorical purposes, consistency of, and logical organization by rearranging the words, sentences, and paragraphs to employ tropes, (e.g., metaphors, similes, analogies, hyperbole, understatement, rhetorical questions, irony), schemes (e.g., parallelism, antithesis, inverted word order, repetition, reversed structures), and by adding transitional words and phrases 3.17D & 4.15D edit drafts for grammar, mechanics, and spelling using a teacher-developed rubric 5.15D, 6.14D, 7.14D, 8.14D Eng. I 13D, Eng. II 13D, Eng. III 13D & Eng. IV 13D edit drafts for grammar, mechanics, and spelling 3.17E publish written work for a specific audience 4. 15E revise final draft in response to feedback from peers and teacher and publish written work for a specific audience 5.15E, 6.14E, 7.14E, 7.14E, 8.14E, Eng. I 13E, Eng. II 13E, Eng. III 13E & Eng. IV 13E revise final draft in response to feedback from peers and teacher and publish written work for appropriate audiences
3 Teachers will also find that many of the writing lessons also include corresponding reading TEKS. When reading, students learn about text structures and the ways authors communicate with readers. Reading comprehension strategies builds background knowledge that writers use when crafting their own writing. Below is a list of lessons that partner with the reading comprehension strategies found in Figure 19. Fun-Size Lessons Fig. 19 (B) ask literal, interpretive, and evaluative questions of text Fig. 19 (B) ask literal, interpretive, evaluative, and universal questions of text Fig. 19 (A) reflect on understanding to monitor comprehension (e.g., asking questions, summarizing and synthesizing, making connections, creating sensory images) 40, 46, 59, 61, 68, 84 Fig. 19 (C) monitor and adjust comprehension (e.g., using background knowledge, creating sensory images, rereading a portion aloud, generating questions) Fig. 19 (C) reflect on understanding to monitor comprehension (e.g., summarizing and synthesizing; making textual, personal, and world connections; creating sensory images Fig. 19 (A) reflect on understanding to monitor comprehension (e.g., asking question, summarizing and synthesizing, making connections, creating sensory images) 83 Fig. 19 (D) make inferences about text using textual evidence to support understanding Fig. 19 (D) make inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding Fig. 19 (D) make complex inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding Fig. 19 (B) make complex inferences about text and use textual evidence to support understanding Fig. 19 (B) make complex inferences (e.g., inductive and deductive) about text and use textual evidence to support understanding 81, 88, 89, 91, 92 Fig. 19 (E) summarize information in text, maintaining meaning and logical order Fig. 19 (F) make connections (e.g., thematic links, author analysis) between literary and informational texts with similar ideas and provide textual evidence Fig. 19 (E) summarize and paraphrase texts in ways that maintain meaning and logical order within a text and across texts Fig. 19 (F) make connections (e.g., thematic links, author analysis) between and across multiple texts of various genres and provide textual evidence Fig. 19 (F) make connections between and across texts, including other media (e.g., film, play), and provide textual evidence Fig. 19 (F) make intertextual links among and across texts, including other media (e.g., film, play), and provide textual evidence Fig. 19 (A) reflect on understanding to monitor comprehension (e.g., asking questions, summarizing and synthesizing, making connections, creating sensory images) Fig. 19 (A) reflect on understanding to monitor comprehension (e.g., asking questions, summarizing and synthesizing, making connections, creating sensory images) 80 38, 53, 56, 63, 67, 71, 80 In addition to the writing TEKS for each lesson, additional TEKS are listed for many of the writing lessons (including reading, media literacy, research and listening/speaking). How the teacher chooses to present the lesson and the final product will determine which TEKS should be included in lesson plans.
