Learning Progressions Frameworks Designed for Use with The Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts & Literacy K-12

I came across this while mucking about the National Center for the Improvement of Educational Assessment website. The Learning Progressions Frameworks Designed for Use with The Common Core State Standards in English Language Arts & Literacy K-12 is sort of a compatibility layer (to use an IT term) between Common Core and how actual English teachers look at the discipline. You know, using words like "genre" and "persuasive techniques," or "habits and dispositions of reading."

To me, it is a more sane expansion of the standards to better reflect the full discipline of English Language Arts.
