CA Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Alignment
NOTES: In the left criterion boxes of the rubric, the CCSS-aligned standards have been identified. As a resource for teachers, below are the standards for the current grade (5th) as well as the preceding and subsequent grade. Since the rubric score of “4” represents “above grade level” work, the 6th grade standards were referenced.
The letter abbreviations are as follows: CCSS = Common Core State Standards W = Writing RIT= Reading – Informational Text L=Language
