Common Core State Standards for English Language ArtsThe Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for speaking in 4th grade emphasize the importance of fostering effective communication and active participation among all students. By this grade level, students are expected to engage in collaborative discussions, express their ideas clearly, and actively listen and respond to their peers. The standards recognize the need for equitable participation, ensuring that all students, including English learners, have opportunities to contribute to classroom discussions. Teachers are encouraged to create a supportive environment that values diverse perspectives and encourages respectful dialogue. Through meaningful speaking activities and structured conversations, 4th-grade students develop their ability to articulate their thoughts, actively listen, ask questions, and build upon the ideas of others. The CCSS for speaking in 4th grade aims to cultivate confident and articulate communicators who can actively participate and contribute to the classroom community.
