Curriculum DocumentOriginal Development: Spring 2015, Revised Summer 2019Unit:Navajo Sound SystemSubject/Course:Din4 Language and CultureGrade Level:Eighth GradeSchool Year:2019-2020-This section completed once per whole unit. (Its purpose is to clarify the unit’s big idea and connecting standards.)Big Ideas: Why is this learning important? What generalization or principle do you want to know/do? The big idea resides at the heart of the discipline, and has value beyond classroom. These may come from the cluster deconstructing process.-Understand the progression of Din4 sound system (i.e., The historical overview of Navajo Writing )-Understand the basic components of the Din4 Sound system-Distinguish between the individual consonants and vowel sounds-Demonstrate ability to decipher the differences between sounds through speech-Demonstrate ability to decipher the differences between sounds through listening-Articulation of Din4 sound system (consonants; monograph, digraph, trigraphs, vowels, diphthongs, diacritical marks, blends) -Enunciate the unique consonants and vowels to produce accurate sounds -Combine syllables to write simple Dine words-Compare and contrast the sound system of Din4 to English (equivalent and non-equivalent consonant sounds)-Understand the importance of why diacritical marks are used in Dine language-Research the Athabaskan language groupCommon Core Standards / State StandardsContent Standard:including CODE + (Rigor)FL-WS-F3PO1 Respectively identify the distinction in sound and writing; with concentration on addition and deletion of certain letters of the alphabet and its diacritical markings of the Navajo languagePO4 Introduce and place emphasis on blending vowels and diphthongs, as well as consonants that are familiarFL-WS-FN8PO6 Distinguish and adaptation to blending consonants sounds that phonetically substitute English consonants (gl, wh, cl, q)PO7 Identify and have awareness of sound articulation that do not exist in the Navajo Language, yet can be substituted by other letters through phonological means (i.e., R for L & W as in Spanish word oro-0ola; English name Ruby-L0bii or W0bii).FL-SR-E1 PO1 Identify, comprehend and apply phonetic skills in pronouncing target language through syllabication. Integration of Reading & Writing and /or Mathematical Practices College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Reading CCSS-WHST.W6Use technology, including the internet, to produce, publish, and update individual or shared writing products, taking advantage of technology’s capacity to link to other information and to display information flexibility and dynamically. CCSS-RST.R4Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms, and other domain-specific words and phrases as they are used in a specific scientific or technical context relevant to grades ninth through twelfth texts and topics. CCSS-HS.MP.7Look for and make use of structure. By high school, students look closely to discern a pattern or structure (ex: c-v-c)__________________Key Ideas and Details1. Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text.Craft and Structure4. Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a text, including determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and analyze how specific word choices shape meaning or tone.9. Analyze how two or more texts address similar themes or topics in order to build knowledge or to compare the approaches the authors take. College and Career Readin4ss Anchor Standards for Reading Mathematical Practices1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively.3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others.4. Model with mathematics.5. Use appropriate tools strategically.6. Attend to precision.7. Look for and make use of structure.8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoningFunctions (F) Define, evaluate, and compare functions.Statistics and Probability (SP)Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population.Mathematical Practices (MP)Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.Text Types and Purposes* 1. Write arguments to support claims in an analysis of substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and relevant and sufficient evidence. College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for WritingRange of Writing 10. Write routinely over extended time frames (time for research, reflection, and revision) and shorter time frames (a single sitting or a day or two) for a range of tasks, purposes, and audiences.
