Standards Support Through Teaching and Learning Cycle
DECIDE AND PLAN
• If students have performed poorly on items matching these standards, then provide selection
scaffolds before assigning them the on-level lesson provided in the Student Edition.
• If students have done well on the Beginning-of-Year Assessment, then challenge them to
keep progressing and learning by giving them opportunities to practice the skills in depth.
• Use the Selection Resources listed on the Planning pages for “The Naked Babe and the
Cloak of Manliness” and “Macbeth” to help students continually improve their ability to
master the standards.
