CCR Reading Anchor 1: Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. (Apply this standard to text of appropriate complexity as outlined by Standard 10.)
threshold: pts
Edit criterion description
4 pts Cite strong and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. (RI/RL 9-10.1) ยท Application: Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, attending to such features as the date and origin of the information. Application: cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of science and technical texts, attending to the precise details of explanations or descriptions.
3 pts Cite the textual evidence that most strongly supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. (RI/RL. 8.1)
2 pts Cite textual evidence that supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
0.5 pts With prompting and support, cite textual evidence supports an analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
