  1. Office of Academics & Accountability

  2. Essential Questions • What are the Common Core Standards? • How different are the new standards from Georgia Performance Standards? • When will they be implemented? • How is FCS preparing for the change?

  3. Common Core State Standards • State-led initiative coordinated by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) • English and Mathematics Standards K-12 • Literacy Standards for Social Studies/History, Science, and Technical Subjects 6-12

  4. A National Movement An Initiative of the National Governor’s Association and Council of Chief State School Officers

  5. Promise of Common Core • CCGPS define the knowledge and skills students should master during their K-12 education so that they will graduate high school able to succeed in entry-level, credit-bearing academic college courses and in workforce training programs. • The standards: • Are aligned with college and work expectations • Are clear, understandable, and consistent • Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through higher-order skills • Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards • Are informed by other top performing countries so that all students are prepared to succeed in a global economy and society; and • Are evidence-based

  6. CCGPS English Language Arts Standards

  7. Design and Organization of ELA • K-12 English Language Arts Standards • Reading standards for literature (RL) • Reading standards for informational text (RI) • Reading standards: foundational skills K-5 ONLY (RF) • Writing standards (W) • Speaking and Listening (SL) • Language standards (L)

  8. Example of Spiral Effect

  9. Impact of K-12 CCGPS ELA • Assessment • Rigor • Text Complexity • Common Core Appendix B • Emphasis on Informational Text • Student Work Samples/Evidence • Common Core Appendix C • Technology

  10. CCGPS Mathematics Standards

  11. Overview of CCGPS Mathematics Standards • Written to assume mastery, in any given year, of the preceding year’s standards • Outlined in three distinct sections • Standards of mathematical practice • Standards for mathematical content for K-8 • Standards for mathematical content for 9-12

  12. K-5 Domains

  13. 6-8 Domains

  14. 9-12 Mathematics Content

  15. Standards of Mathematical Practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them • Reason abstractly and quantitatively • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others • Model with mathematics • Use appropriate tools strategically • Attend to precision • Look for and make use of structure • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning

  16. Assessment Implications

  17. CCGPS Implementation
