LAC 28:LIX.501. Coding Key

A. Standards are broad goals for student achievement in a content area. Each standard is followed by a set of benchmarks. The benchmarks state what a student should know and be able to do in order to reach the standard. The GLEs are more specific statements regarding what students should know and be able to do at the end of each grade level. The key in below will explain the coding used for the GLEs contained in this document. 1. The first number indicates the standards number. 2. The capitol letter represents the cluster level. 3. The third symbol is a second number, which represents the benchmark number. 4. The number following the decimal point is the GLE number for the benchmark a. The letters for each grade cluster level are as follows: E | represents the elementary cluster level, grades K-5 M | represents the middle school cluster level, grades 6-8 H | represents the high school cluster level, grades 9-12 Example: Kindergarten, 2-E-4.1 would represent the first GLE for standard two on the Kindergarten level.
