The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in the United States for teachers: you can incorporate this topics into your curriculum through broader standards related to reading, writing, and research.
Here are some ways you can align the study of Bali or Indonesian culture with CCSS:
English Language Arts (ELA) Standards
Reading Informational Texts (RI)
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.4.2: Determine the main idea of a text and explain how it is supported by key details; summarize the text.
Example: Students can read informational texts and watch videos about Bali and summarize the main ideas about its culture and history.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RI.7.1: Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text or videos.
Example: Students can analyze texts about Balinese dance and cite evidence to describe its cultural significance.
Reading Literature (RL)
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.5.6: Describe how a narrator’s or speaker’s point of view influences how events are described.
Example: Reading about dance from Indonesian literature to understand different cultural perspectives.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.9: Analyze how an author draws on and transforms source material in a specific work.
Example: Comparing traditional Balinese stories with modern adaptations or interpretations.
Writing (W)
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.4.2: Write informative/explanatory texts to examine a topic and convey ideas and information clearly.
Example: Writing a report on the history of Bali or the intricacies of Balinese dance.
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.W.6.7: Conduct short research projects to answer a question, drawing on several sources and refocusing the inquiry when appropriate.
Example: Researching various aspects of Indonesian culture and presenting findings in a structured format.
Speaking and Listening (SL)
CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.SL.3.4: Report on a topic or text, tell a story, or recount an experience with appropriate facts and relevant, descriptive details, speaking clearly at an understandable pace.
Example: Presenting a project on Balinese dance, including a demonstration of movements or a visual presentation of costumes.
Social Studies Standards
While the Common Core does not cover social studies directly, many states use the National Curriculum Standards for Social Studies (NCSS) to guide curriculum development. These standards can also be connected to the study of Bali or Indonesian culture:
Culture
Understand how culture influences human behavior and society through arts, traditions, and rituals.
Example: Exploring Balinese dance as an expression of cultural identity.
Global Connections
Recognize the interconnectedness of global cultures and histories.
Example: Studying Indonesia’s role in global trade and cultural exchanges.
By aligning lessons about Bali or Indonesian culture with these broader standards, educators can create rich, interdisciplinary learning experiences that meet educational objectives while exposing students to diverse global perspectives.
