  1. Slide show at lsalearning.com/workshops CCSS in a year long context Marie Alcock phd

  2. Support Materials: LSALearning.com / workshops • Year long context Detailed = Step by step process described in detail including support sites, prompting questions, coaching points, etc. This is several pages long and can be helpful if you are leading the process • Year long context Graphic = Summary of process in graphic organizer. Only one page and is useful when prompting faculty during a work session. Note, Math and ELA are on different pages. • Links to Samples, sample Year long contexts and sample units.

  3. Standards -Based Classroom CURRICULUM STANDARD The STUDENT ASSESSMENT INSTRUCTION

  4. Indicators of Standards -Based Teaching and Learning: • The school develops clear statements of what students should know and be able to do • Common assessments apply to all students with high expectations for their success • The teacher knows how each lesson relates to curriculum unit plans

  5. Common Terms Learning Systems Associates

  6. Four Phases

  7. Phase I

  8. PHASE I: CREATING YEAR LONG CONTEXT TOOL Step 1: The Why? Step 2: Examine CLIs & MPs (in introductions) for focus areas at grade level Step 3: Examine Anchor Standards or Areas of Focus and grade level standards (Staircase K-12) for coherence and focus Step 4: Prioritizing Grade Level Standards (B, M, E) dividing into potential units Step 5: Link CLIs or MPs to units through natural connections to standards or themes

  9. PHASE I: CREATING YEAR LONG CONTEXT TOOL Step 1: The Why? Step 2: Examine CLIs & MPs (in introductions) for focus areas at grade level Step 3: Examine Anchor Standards or Areas of Focus and grade level standards (Staircase K-12) for coherence and focus Step 4: Prioritizing Grade Level Standards (B, M, E) dividing into potential units Step 5: Link CLIs or MPs to units through natural connections to standards or themes

  10. Steps 1, 2, and 3 http://corestandards.org

  11. Six shifts in ela / literacy

  12. Six shifts in mathematics

  13. Step 2: Examine CLIs & MPs (in introductions) for focus areas at grade levelStep 3: Examine Anchor Standards or Areas of Focus and grade level standards (Staircase K-12) for coherence and focus

  14. PHASE I: CREATING YEAR LONG CONTEXT TOOL Step 1: The Why? Step 2: Examine CLIs & MPs (in introductions) for focus areas at grade level Step 3: Examine Anchor Standards or Areas of Focus and grade level standards (Staircase K-12) for coherence and focus Step 4: Prioritizing Grade Level Standards (B, M, E) dividing into potential units Step 5: Link CLIs or MPs to units through natural connections to standards or themes

  15. Step 4: Organizing Year Long Context • Identify standards you are working with • Read the standards • Identify if each one is a beginning of year, middle of year, or end of year standard. • Build “piles” of standards that are connected in some way and can build assessments that make sense for learning. • Identify central ideas or themes that are connected to these “piles” (MPs and CLIs are aligned here)

  16. Year long context tool

  17. Step 4: Prioritize Beginning, Middle, and End of year (not current curr.)

  18. One more possibility…

  19. Sample Year Long Context – consider Timing Sample from Rubicon Atlas Software

  20. PHASE I: CREATING YEAR LONG CONTEXT TOOL Step 1: The Why? Step 2: Examine CLIs & MPs (in introductions) for focus areas at grade level Step 3: Examine Anchor Standards or Areas of Focus and grade level standards (Staircase K-12) for coherence and focus Step 4: Prioritizing Grade Level Standards (B, M, E) dividing into potential units Step 5: Link CLIs or MPs to units through natural connections to standards or themes

  21. Step 5: Align MPs or CLIs to potential units

  22. Central idea, theme, connections

  23. Samples at LSA-public.rubiconatlas.org

  24. How are things shaping up? What Squares with my BELIEFS? What QUESTIONS are Circling around in my head? 3 Points worth REMEMBERING

  25. Phase II

  26. Teachers building units in software

  27. PhASE 2: Creating Units of Curriculum Step 6: Aligning Central Ideas to Essential Questions and Assessments (Evidence) Step 7: Unpacking standards into precise content and precise skills statements and align to Assessments (evidence) Step 8: Craft Key Terms, Activities, and all elements of the unit template Step 9: Alignment and Revisions for quality Step 10: Examine student work and refine curriculum delivery

  28. Step 6 : Alignment with pre-mapping activity

  29. Step 9: Diamonds of Alignment • Essential Questions are answered by students and give evidence of the central ideas being understood. • Children are metacognitively aware of their own learning process. • Skills are observed and / or measured. • Evidence of the standards are either tangible products or performances.

  30. Step 2: Sample in Rubicn More Samples at LSA-PUBLIC.RUBICONATLAS.ORG under ELA ES

  31. Step 6 cont. : Theme / Evidence (Consider MPs and CLIs)

  32. PhASE 2: Creating Units of Curriculum Step 6: Aligning Central Ideas to Essential Questions and Assessments (Evidence) Step 7: Unpacking standards into precise content and precise skills statements and align to Assessments (evidence) Step 8: Craft Key Terms, Activities, and all elements of the unit template Step 9: Alignment and Revisions for quality Step 10: Examine student work and refine curriculum delivery

  33. Step 7: Precise content and Skills “That isn’t what I meant when I said strip and wax the floor!” Precise content and skills matter Content = nouns “the WHAT” Content = bulleted list Skills = action verbs “students DO” Skills = observable and measurable Skills = directly aligned to assessments

  34. Step 7: Unpacking the Standards • Identify the standards for the unit • Underline the verbs and highlightthe nouns • Examine the Verbs for preciseness – ask “What would this look like in the classroom?” and “What would I see the student do to produce evidence of this?” Change the verb if necessary. • Prioritize the nouns into two groups: • Items of content and • Clarifiers that make the skills precise

  36. PhASE 2: Creating Units of Curriculum Step 6: Aligning Central Ideas to Essential Questions and Assessments (Evidence) Step 7: Unpacking standards into precise content and precise skills statements and align to Assessments (evidence) Step 8: Craft Key Terms, Activities, and all elements of the unit template Step 9: Alignment and Revisions for quality Step 10: Examine student work and refine curriculum delivery

  37. Diamonds of Alignment Essential Questions are answered in assessments Skills are aligned to assessments

  38. PhASE 2: Creating Units of Curriculum Step 6: Aligning Central Ideas to Essential Questions and Assessments (Evidence) Step 7: Unpacking standards into precise content and precise skills statements and align to Assessments (evidence) Step 8: Craft Key Terms, Activities, and all elements of the unit template Step 9: Alignment and Revisions for quality Step 10: Examine student work and refine curriculum delivery

  39. Step 10: Assessments / Evidence • Assessments are answers to the Essential Questions. These will be evidence of both the standards and the Central Ideas. • Assessments are tangible products or performances of the Skills (if we say “list” in skills there is a “list” in assessments) • Assessments are are summative or formative • Assessments are DIRECTLY aligned to the Standard – labeled right in the unit map. • Collect Student work to evaluate the unit and refine going forward

  40. What aspects will you use immediately? What are your next steps for taking action? Next Steps • What do you and your colleagues still need?
