  6. Washington’s Vision for Education Every Washington public school student will graduate from high school globally competitive for work and postsecondary education and prepared for life in the 21stcentury. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 Class of 2011: Bridgeport High School

  7. Before we begin… what’s your current focus? How are you approaching curriculum/ materials alignment to the CCSS? Please type in your response to the chat box. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  8. Classroom Impact of CCSS Reading in many contents Reading foundations Text to self Transferring skills spelling Reading comprehension Reading deeply Growing language skills Speaking and listening Writing foundations Leveraging funds of knowledge Writing process CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  9. Washington State’s Definition of Literacy Literacy is an on-going cognitive process that begins at birth. It involves the integration of listening, speaking, reading, writing and critical thinking. Literacy also includes the knowledge that enables the speaker, writer or reader to recognize and use language appropriate to a situation in an increasingly complex literate environment. Active literacy allows people to think, create, question, solve problems and reflect in order to participate effectively in a democratic, multicultural society. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  12. Shifting to comprehensive literacy CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  15. Foundational Skills (K-5) CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 Print Concepts (K-1) Phonological Awareness (K-1) Phonics and Word Recognition Fluency

  16. Three Shifts in English Language Arts • Building content knowledge through content-rich nonfiction • Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational • Regular practice with complex text and its academic language CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  17. Shift One: Building content knowledge throughcontent-rich nonfiction • Provides an ideal context for building language, vocabulary, knowledge, and reasoning • Is challenging, complex, and has deep comprehension-building potential • Is an opportunity for students to learn how to engage, interact, and have “conversations” with the text in ways that prepare them for the type of experiences they will encounter in college and careers. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  18. K-5 Balance Across a Year reading, writing, modes, genres, products CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  19. Shift Two: Reading, writing, and speakinggrounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational Moving from “how do you feel about what you just read? Do you like it?” to “Identify three examples that let you know what the author’s purpose is. Do you agree with the author?” CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  20. Text-dependent questions What makes Casey’s experiences at bat funny? In “Casey at the Bat,” Casey strikes out. Describe a time when something was really hard for you. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  21. Consider the following questions: How does this task build on prior knowledge from earlier grades and support later concepts? How does this task provide access for ALL students What do we do to support students reading below or above this level? Why is this a task “worth doing”? CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  22. Shift Three: Regular practice withcomplex textand its academic language CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 Careful, targeted scaffolding of text complexity Focus on appropriately rigorous texts Strategic teaching of Tier 2 and Tier 3 vocabulary with authentic application of new words and terms

  23. Text Complexity Model: the right text at the right time for the right reason Best measured by an attentive human reader Best made by educators employing their professional judgment CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 Best measured by computer software

  24. Considering Depth of Knowledge/DOK CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  25. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 These standards are directed toward fostering students’ understanding and working knowledge of concepts of print, the alphabetic principle, and other basic conventions of the English writing system. These foundational skills are not an end in and of themselves; rather, they are necessary and important components of an effective, comprehensive reading program designed to develop proficient readers with the capacity to comprehend texts across a range of types and disciplines. Instruction should be differentiated: good readers will need much less practice with these concepts than struggling readers will. The point is to teach students what they need to learn and not what they already know—to discern when particular children or activities warrant more or less attention.

  27. What is Vertical Articulation CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 Vertical alignment asks: • How are the content standards/objectives related from one year/grade to the next? • Knowledge or skills extend to a wider range of content • Deeper understanding of the (cognitive process) for same content • New content or skills

  35. The Possibilities of “Checklists” CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 NOT TO RATE/ just to check… What do we need more work on seeing? What do we see and know easily? What are our strengths? What are our weaknesses? What data do we collect to identify components?

  36. Multiple tools to get organized:local/state/cadre/associations http://www.achievethecore.org/page/783/instructional-materials-evaluation-tool-imet CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  37. “PC”/ IMET/ EQuIP CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 • Review your copy of the Publishers Criteria (the BIG PICTURE OF CONTENT) • Highlight 1-3 components/lines/ sections that stand out to you • Share your choices with your table mates • What makes these things challenging? • Why are they important? • Can you “rank order” them? • What questions do you have? What else do we need to learn?

  43. Implications for Instruction and Student Achievement Critical to spend time learning the standards, understanding the shifts and knowing the progression of learning the standards attend to. We must transform how we present math ideas/concepts. Progression documents give guidance on research based approaches to learning such as unit fraction, number lines, etc. Know these documents deeply. Ensure ALL students have opportunities to engage in meaningful mathematics. CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  44. Resources and Support Resources from local, regional, state, and inter-state collaboration: what’s new and what’s next CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013

  46. Communications Campaign Ready Washington is a coalition of state and local education agencies, associations and advocacy organizations that support college- and career-ready learning standards. The coalition believes all students should be better prepared for college, work and life to build the skills to compete for the quality jobs that our state has to offer. *Initial support for ReadyWA received in October 2012 grant awarded from College Spark Washington to Partnership for Learning & Office of Superintendent of Public Instruction CCR_CCSS_ELA_DEC_18_2013 www.ReadyWA.org
