Resources Available on the GPS Website

No, not the Global Positioning System website. The Georgia Performance Standards website!

The standards themselves are fairly easy to access from the “Browse Standards” tab on the left. However, the resources are a bit more difficult to navigate. There is a tab at the top titled “Resources & Videos.” Here‘s a link to interesting educational tools. Did you know you can follow GA Standards on Twitter? There are also many videos, though they require a plug-in which would not download on KSU computers.

The Frameworks site is helpful, as it provides a suggested curriculum (with unit topics & everything) that meets standards.

My favorite standard? ELA8RC1:

“The student reads a minimum of 25 grade-level appropriate books or book equivalents (approximately 1,000,000 words) per year from a variety of subject disciplines.”

Better get started now…tell students to have at least 5,000 words read by Friday if they’re going to read a million in 180 days. :)
