ICYMI: Reading & Writing Student Assignment Library
Build capacity this summer with the Reading & Writing Student Assignment Library!
The library provides examples of student tasks that are weakly, partially and strongly aligned to the Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS) for Reading and Writing and can be used with the Assignment Review Protocol to develop a better understanding of the tool and how it can be applied to a teacher’s own work. The teacher assignment review protocol is intended to help teachers answer the question, “Does this task give students the opportunity to meaningfully engage in worthwhile grade-level content?”
When using the library, teachers should become more equipped to evaluate tasks for standards alignment and develop tasks that are strongly aligned to the KAS for Reading and Writing. It is important to note the library is not intended to showcase student work, but rather the task and accompanying rationale to explain why it is or is not strongly aligned to standards.

Grade Level Sample Library - Connecting the Breaking Down a Standard to the Assignment Review Protocol to Accelerate Student Learning
Having clarity around grade level expectations within the Kentucky Academic Standards (KAS) for Mathematics is critical to help district and school staff guide curriculum and instruction to accelerate learning based on students’ needs.
The grade level sample library supports mathematics educators working within grade-level or course content teams by demonstrating how powerful the “Breaking Down a Standard” resource can be when used in conjunction with the “Assignment Review Protocol” to gain a deeper understanding of the expectations within the KAS for Mathematics. The library consists of annotated samples of the “Breaking Down a Standards” resource and the “Assignment Review Protocol” resource for each grade level (kindergarten-high school).
