- Synopsis
- Here is a complete list of the California State Standards for Language Arts so that you can know what you are expected to learn this year. In this strand of standards, you will use your prior knowledge of word origins to learn the meanings of new words and to use these words correctly. Over the years, many words in English have changed in meaning and spelling. Words that came to English from other languages may also have evolved from their original forms. Knowing a word's etymology, or history, will help you understand its meaning. Many words in English come from classical languages of long ago and contain distinct references to science or mathematics. Knowing the meanings of word parts (roots, prefixes, and suffixes) will help you figure out the meanings of unfamiliar words. An analogy is a statement that two dissimilar things are alike in some way. Examining the relationships expressed in analogies helps us think logically. In this strand of standards you will read material with the purpose of analyzing its organization as well as the arguments and positions it advances.
