Common Core State Standard Rubric for History/Social Studies 11-12 | Michael K. Milton ~ @42ThinkDeep. For the past few weeks, my colleague Todd Whitten and I have been sharing some work that we have done with the Common Core State Standards for History/Social Studies. During this process, we created rubrics based upon the 9-10th Grade Standards and the 11-12th Grade Standards. This week, we will be sharing those documents. Below is what we created based upon the Common Core State Standards for History/Social Studies for 11-12th Grades. (Todd will be launching the rubric for the 9-10th grade on his blog later this week.)

When we were aligning activities with the Common Core (links below), this was our guiding document. Let us know what you think! Key Ideas and Details (Green Circle) RH.11-12.1. RH.11-12.2.

The Common Core State Standards have made it even more important for educators to assist students in making the connections between writing and reading through thoughtful and well-planned instruction, assignments and feedback. The Elk Grove Unified School District (EGUSD) created Common Core State Standards-aligned writing rubrics as a resource to assist teachers with this work.

These rubrics are intended to help in instructional planning and to provide guidance in assisting students with the writing process.
