Common Core Social Studies and the Informational Web




 -  


 Many students have a problem organizing evidence from the text in a logical and systematic way. A good way for students to find the knowledge necessary to meet CCSS is to first have each student make an informational web.

The informational web serves two purposes. First it provides the student with notes from the article or passage they have read. Secondly, the student can see the connections between the “facts”, details and key ideas within the text. The resulting notes, will allow students to write critically about a historical topic, while organizing the supporting textual evidence they have read in the selection.
