The state of Connecticut has adopted the Common Core State Standards. These standards describe what students are expected to know, and student learning throughout the year is based on the content of these standards. The English Language Arts standards are divided into the following areas: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language.
This book focuses specifically on developing and applying the Language standards. However, this also overlaps with all other areas, as language skills are essential for effective reading comprehension, speaking, listening, and writing.
