Mentor texts are a powerful way to teach both reading and writing, two activities that have a special place in the common core. We can teach the way we want and still conect to the CCS.

"Big ideas about the past, we learn, are subject to change. As you and your students read nonfiction, look for additional ways that authors shape their big ideas. Consider making a collection of mentor texts which students can refer to as they write." Delete the scoop?

We are all familiar with the idea of service in communities and service in schools. Service learning, however, has distinctive aspects that separate this pedagogy from what we often call “community service” or “project-based learning.” With high-quality service learning, students: Increase academic rigor through relevance and application of content and skillsParticipate in social analysis as they investigate an authentic community need, typically through action research using media, interviews, surveys, and observation More

It is exactly this “close reading” that Common Core supporters hope will usher in a new era of reading instruction—one where teachers select grade-appropriate texts for all students; where they have students read and reread those texts—perhaps more times than even makes sense or feels comfortable—to support deep comprehension and analysis; and where they push students to engage in the text itself—in the author’s words, not in how those words make us feel.

Education Week December 12, 2012 Literature vs. Informational Text: misunderstanding of the standards or faulty implementation? "the standards value literature and give it a central place in students' learning." "ELA classrooms are not being taken over by informational text; literature is not being left by the wayside." Via Mel Riddile 
Mel Riddile's curator insight,
December 13, 2012 10:26 AM
According to Common Core ELA co-authors, David Coleman and Sue Pimentel, "the standards' expectation of more nonfiction reading—reaching 70 percent of what students read by the time they reach high school—runs across the disciplines, so English/language arts teachers are still free to teach the fiction and literature that's been central to their work. "Said plainly, stories, drama, poetry, and other literature account for the majority of reading that students will do in the high school ELA classroom." 
Roz Linder's comment,

It is not that literature is being moved, but the concept of paired readings and additional text is what needs to be embraced. Not a replacement, an addition!
