Strand - Reading in History and Social Science

Cluster - Key Ideas and Details

[RCA-H.9-10.1] - Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, attending to such features as the date and origin of the information.


Resources:


  • Analysis (Analyze)
    In general, a careful examination of the parts of a whole and their relationships to one another; in language arts, a study of how words, sentences, paragraphs, stanzas, or sections of a text affect its meaning.
  • Evidence
    Empirical data or other sources of support (e.g., mathematical proofs) for a claim; may be selected, presented, and evaluated differently by different audiences and in different subject areas according to the norms of disciplinary literacy. See Text Types and Purposes for Argument.
  • Massachusetts Anchor Standards for Reading
  • Reading Closely to Analyze Complex Texts in the Secondary Grades
  • Source
    Text used largely for informational purposes, as in research.
  • Text features
    Aspects of a (usually informational) text other than the main content: for example, headings, illustrations, charts, captions, callout boxes, excerpts displayed in a larger font for emphasis.

Predecessor Standards:

  • RCA-H.6-8.1
    Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, quoting or paraphrasing as appropriate. (See grades 6-8 Writing Standard 8 for more on quoting and paraphrasing.)

Successor Standards:

  • RCA-H.11-12.1
    Cite specific textual evidence to support analysis of primary and secondary sources, connecting insights gained from specific details to an understanding of the text as a whole.

Same Level Standards:

  • WCA.9-10.9
    Draw evidence from informational texts to support analysis, interpretation, reflection, and research. (See grades 9-10 Reading Standard 1 for more on the use of textual evidence.)
  • SLCA.9-1.a0.1
    Come to discussions prepared, having read and researched material under study; explicitly draw on that preparation by referring to evidence from texts and other research on the topic or issue to stimulate a thoughtful, well-reasoned exchange of ideas. (See grades 9-10 Reading Standard 1 for more on the use of textual evidence.)
