Unit Priority Standards

Cajon Valley has adopted the Common Core State Standards for ELA, which focus on 5 key themes for ELA instruction: Meaning Making, Language Development, Effective Expression, Content Knowledge, and Foundational Skills. Within these, the district has identified priority standards for teachers to target per trimester to best prepare students for state testing and for coming years of instruction. 

Priority standards and their accompanying embedded standards for Reading and Writing are presented below.
