The resources found on this page were compiled by Missouri educators in response to teachers requesting additional content-specific information to support local curriculum and assessment work surrounding the English language arts priority standards. The purpose of these resources is to serve as a starting point for local discussions around pedagogy, curriculum, instruction and assessment. They are teacher suggestions based on experience and insights gleaned from teaching the MLS over the past five years and are intended to represent a diverse and flexible range of ideas.

The newly-created Leverage Learning in English Language Arts Bundling document provides one example of how Priority and Supporting Standards can be grouped to facilitate cohesive instruction and promote efficient use of instructional time. The bundled instructional resources and activities are designed to help, not restrict, teachers in making connections between standards.
