8th Grade Reading: Informational Text
For eighth graders, this Common Core area helps students gain mastery of the deeper tasks involved in reading a non-fiction text. The standards require students to increase the complexity in the texts they read and deepen their understanding of the connections within and between texts. Among the complete standards for this grade, eighth graders will be asked to: support a textual analysis with direct textual evidence and explicit inferences, determine the theme of a text and how it develops within the text, be able to give an objective summary of a text, begin to evaluate the strength of argument, reasoning and supporting evidence within a text, be able to assess the appropriate use of various media to convey the meaning of information being conveyed, read text appropriate to grade level while increasing in the level of text complexity throughout the year.
