Languages Other Than English teachers should be aware
of the Common Core State Standards and the shifts they
represent, and think about how their own instructional
practice may change as a result. LOTE teachers should
deliver a Common Core aligned unit based on the charge
from the Commissioner; however, that unit should be in
LOTE (not in ELA or Math) and be aligned to the six shifts
and/or Common Core Learning Standards -— but taking
into account the level of instruction for the class. Shift 2 in
the Six Shifts in ELA/Literacy includes "Building Knowledge
in the Disciplines.”

Result of a joint effort by National Governors
Association Center for Best Practices and the
Council fo Chief State School Officers
Designed to be internationally benchmarked
and aligned to work and post secondary
expectations (college & career readiness

What are the shifts in
LOTE?
Balance literary/non-fiction texts: using authentic texts (created for the
native speakers that provide rich source of current language and
culture
Close reading - digging into text, inferring, reading between the
lines,analyzing vocabulary & structure, etc.
Design presentational tasks (speaking or writing) that require students
to evaluate, integrate, evaluate evidence gleaned from multiple
sources (audio, video, and print media).
Design written and oral tasks that require students to advance an
argument (persuasion) or explain or shed light on a topic (explanatory)
Why transition to CC?
NYSED Mandate
LOTE AP and IB Exams are already
aligned to CC
If we don’t define how Common Core
Standards are integrated with LOTE
instruction, someone else will!
AP Language and Culture Format
ACTFL’S 3 MODES OF
COMMUNICATION
What if we used our texts (audio, video, & print) to
serve as prompts or sources for our speaking and
writing tasks?
Step 1: Develop World
Language Themes K-12
Proposed WL Themes
RUBRICS
Let’s get started....
• First think about what the important skills and big
ideas students will walk away with
•
Determine what students should be able to do with
the language at the end of the unit.
• Select the resources that will be used.
•
Plan the tasks for those resources.
What will you need?
Lots and
lots of texts!
Articles
Unit theme: Social Relationships
NYS Syllabus topic: Meal taking
Essential question for Meal taking:
Why is the relationship between what we eat and good health?
Enduring understanding:
Students will understand that when and what we eat can affect the quality of our lives.
Students will understand that geography and culture influence our diet and meal taking
preferences.
Context for unit and summative assessment: A new company has been hired to
manage the school cafeteria and is asking the students for their suggestions on how
to better meet their dietary needs.
Finding resources..
My search process:
*Google sentences in the target language relating to your
topic or perhaps what you think a student might write or say
about this topic. comidas favoritas; comidas saludables, el
desayuno es la comida más importante, por qué el desayuno
*I selected “blogs” as the type of media I wanted to search
Youtube and Audio-lingua for my audio/visual sources
Resources
* Collect many more than you need
* Select the ones to be used in class and then
set aside those you will use in the CC IPA.
* Determine the vocabulary and grammar they
will need to negotiate these sources – pick
your resources so they are using similar
vocabulary and structure
* Make a list of the academic vocabulary they
will need – this will depend on resources and
the tasks: “according to the article”, “in my
opinion”, “the majority”, “the percentage”

good breakfast for students. Students demonstrate understanding by matching
images to benefits.
