Come to discussions prepared having read and researched material under study; explicitlydraw on that preparation by referring to evidence from texts and other research on the topic orissue to stimulate a thoughtful, well-reasoned exchange of ideas.b. Work with peers to set rules for collegial discussions and decision-making (e.g., in- formalconsensus, taking votes on key issues, presentation of alternate views), clear goals anddeadlines, and individual roles as needed.c. Propel conversations by posing and responding to questions that relate the current discussionto broader themes or larger ideas; actively incorporate others into the discussion; and clarify,verify, or challenge ideas and conclusions.d. Respond thoughtfully to diverse perspectives, summarize points of agreement anddisagreement, and, when warranted, qualify or justify their own views and understanding andmake new connections in light of the evidence and reasoning presented.SL.9-10.2 Interpret information presented in diverse media and formats (e.g., visually,quantitatively, orally) and explain how it contributes to a topic, text, or issue under study.

Determine or clarify the meaning of unknown and multiple-meaning words and phrasesbased on grades 9–10 reading and content, choosing flexibly from a range of strategies.a. Use context (e.g., the overall meaning of a sentence, paragraph, or text; a word’s position orfunction in a sentence) as a clue to the meaning of a word or phrase.b. Identify and correctly use patterns of word changes that indicate different meanings or parts ofspeech (e.g., analyze, analysis, analytical; advocate, advocacy).c. Consult general and specialized reference materials (e.g., dictionaries, glossaries, thesauruses),both print and digital, to find the pronunciation of a word or deter-mine or clarify its precisemeaning, its part of speech, or its etymology.d. Verify the preliminary determination of the meaning of a word or phrase (e.g., by checking theinferred meaning in context or in a dictionary).AssessmentsState and district mandated assessment.Examples: SRI, Benchmarks, SAGEOthers as determined at classroom, department, andnetwork level.
