How to Honor the English Curriculum and the Study of US History: A Response to Concerns Expressed by Teachers at a California Conference

Sandra Stotsky ()

Nonpartisan Education Review, 2019, vol. 15, issue 1, 1-10

Abstract: Common Core seems to require that much of the English Language Arts curriculum at both the elementary and secondary level must include informational texts, although no standard actually says that. It is implied by the division of its Reading standards into 10 for "informational texts" and 9 for "literature." Dr. Stotsky's initial remarks will explain: 1. Why the integration of literary texts and informational texts is so crucial. 2. What informational texts or literary nonfiction might be assigned in grades 6 to 12. 3. What imaginative literary texts might be assigned in grades 6 to 12.
