Maryland College and Career-Ready Standards
MD.RL. Standards for Reading Literature (RL)
Key Ideas and Details
RL1.CCR. Anchor Standard: Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text.
5.RL1. Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
5.RL1.2. Apply appropriate strategies to monitor understanding when reading, viewing, or listening to a text: reread as necessary; determine main ideas of portions of the text; periodically restate, retell, paraphrase, summarize, and/or synthesize information (See CCSS SL.5.4-6); connect ideas within the text; make, confirm, and/or modify questions, inferences, and predictions; visualize.
5.RL1.3. Demonstrate understanding, either orally or in writing, after reading, viewing, or listening to a text: determine and explain main ideas (explicit or inferred) of the text; summarize the text (See CCSS SL.5.4-6; MD SLM 4A2); explain what is directly stated in the text by citing specific details and examples from the text; explain inferences, conclusions, and generalizations by citing appropriate details and examples from the text; synthesize information and ideas; confirm, refute, and/or make predictions about the text; connect prior knowledge or experience to the text.
RL2.CCR. Anchor Standard: Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas.
5.RL2. Determine a theme of a story, drama, or poem from details in the text, including how characters in a story or drama respond to challenges or how the speaker in a poem reflects upon a topic; summarize the text.
5.RL2.1. Summarize a literary text either orally or in writing, including key events from the beginning, middle, and end of the text (See CCSS W.5.9; SL.5.4, 6).
