Frameworks for the Maryland College and Career Ready (MCCR) Standards

The Frameworks for the MCCR Standards in English Language Arts/Literacy are the result of a year-long effort by Maryland educators to unpack the MCCR standards and identify the essential skills and knowledge that a student would need in order to master the grade specific standards. Since the MCCR Standards did not include Pre-K, Maryland educators created standards and developed the essential skills and knowledge to serve these students. The Frameworks are not intended to convey the order in which the standards should be taught nor the length of time to devote to a unit of study.

The Frameworks in English Language Arts/Literacy integrate standards from different strands:

• Reading Foundational Skills
