:"Acquire and use accurately grade-appropriate general academic and domain-specific words and phrases, including those that signal contrast, addition, and other logical relationships (e.g., however, although, nevertheless, similarly, moreover, in addition)."
Our Take: Fifth grade students should read texts that contain new vocabulary and more complex sentence structures. Help students understand conjunctions and adverbs like those listed above by asking them to use those words correctly in a sentence. When reading with students, ask them to use context clues to deduce the meaning of these words.
These worksheets can help students practice this Common Core State Standards skill.
