[quote]New York State ELA Curriculum for Grades Pre-K-2

The New York State ELA Curriculum for grades Pre-K-2 is made up of three components: the Listening and Learning strand and Skills strand ([b]from the Core Knowledge Language Arts-New York Edition[/b]) and Guided Reading and Accountable Independent Reading.[/quote]

[quote]The Listening and Learning strand lessons, comprised of teacher read-alouds, class discussion, vocabulary work, and extension activities, build on the research finding that students’ listening comprehension outpaces their reading comprehension throughout elementary school. [b]These read-alouds and exercises are organized in 11 to 12 domains (units) per grade. Each domain is dedicated to a particular topic, and the class stays focused on that topic or theme for 10 to 15 days of instruction[/b]. The domains build on each other within and across grades.[/quote]

The domains are INTENSE.

Ask your relatives in NYS to look at the link I posted, and to explain to you the difference between Common Core State Standards in ELA, and the Core Knowledge Domains.[/quote]

Did you notice on your link the following:
