Authors Speak: Common Core State Standards and an Author's Role-- Literature and a knowledge of the author that creates the literature plays an important role in meeting the Common Core Standards —"Through reading a diverse array of classic and contemporary literature as well as challenging informational texts in a range of subjects, students are expected to build knowledge, gain insights, explore possibilities, and broaden their perspectives." Author Speaks will focus on how meeting an author (in person or through author studies) will enhance the ability to achieve targeted outcomes and promote students' successful growth toward meeting the standards.
