Read the following online article and then use the Guided Comprehension Activities to assess your comprehension.

Rosenbusch, M. H. (Ed.) (1997) "Bringing the Standards into the Classroom: A teacher's Guide". National K-12 Foreign Language Resource Center. Iowa State University.

Download a PDF document of the Guide from the CoBaLTT website (Guide - you may have to click-hold-save). You may also download the PDF, or order a paper copy of the document from the original webpage: http://www.nflrc.iastate.edu/pubs/standards/standards.html

Also on the Iowa NFLRC webpage is a section called "A Guide to Aligning Curriculum with the Standards for Foreign Language Learning" which has helpful questions for curriculum development based on the standards.
