About the Common Core Standards
The Common Core Standards are a set of standards adopted by most
American states. The standards describe what students are expected
to be able to do. Student learning is based on these standards
throughout the year, and students in most states are tested based
on these standards at the end of the school year. This workbook
develops many skills listed in the Common Core Standards for
English Language Arts, including skills in the reading, writing,
and language strands. A complete list of the specific skills
covered is included in the back of the book.
