    GA Standards of Excellence for Language Arts:


    ELAGSE9-10SL1: Initiate and participate effectively in a range of collaborative
    discussions(one-on-one, in groups, and teacher-led) with diverse partners on grades 9–10
    topics, texts, and issues, building on others’ ideas and expressing their own clearly and
    persuasively.
    a. Come to discussions prepared having read and researched material under study; explicitly
    draw on that preparation by referring to evidence from texts and other research on the topic or
    issue to stimulate a thoughtful, well-reasoned exchange of ideas.
    b. Work with peers to set rules for collegial discussions and decision-making (e.g., informal
    consensus, taking votes on key issues, presentation of alternate views), clear goals and
    deadlines, and individual roles as needed.
    c. Propel conversations by posing and responding to questions that relate the current
    discussion to broader themes or larger ideas; actively incorporate others into the discussion;
    and clarify, verify, or challenge ideas and conclusions.
    d. Respond thoughtfully to diverse perspectives, summarize points of agreement and
    disagreement.
    ELAGSE9-10W4: Produce clear and coherent writing in which the development, organization,
    and style are appropriate to task, purpose, and audience. (Grade-specific expectations for
    writing types are defined in standards 1–3 above.)
    ELAGSE9-10W5: Develop and strengthen writing as needed by planning, revising, editing,
    rewriting, or trying a new approach, focusing on addressing what is most significant for a
    specific purpose and audience. (Editing for conventions should demonstrate command of
    Language standards 1–3 up to and including grades 9–10.)
