  8. Common Core Opt-In Supports for SY 11-12 • Strategic supports provided on a school-wide opt-in basis at no financial cost to schools • Schools opting-in will have access to: • Common Core aligned professional development, and • a math, ELA, science and social studies unit of study for each grade level • Clearly established expectations for opt-in schools • Schools opting-out must provide evidence of their work in advancing the Common Core through PD and curriculum in their School Performance Plans

  9. Secondary Content Literacy & the CCSS • Literacy Design Collaborative Modules • 2011-12: One per grade level per content area • Middle School: English/Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies • High School: English I-IV, U.S. History, Government, World History, Biology, and Chemistry • 2012-13: Two per grade level per content area (ELA- Four) • 2013- 14: Four per grade level per content area

  14. 6th Grade Social Studies Task How does religion impact the lives of its followers? After reading and analyzing selections from “World Beliefs and Cultures: Islam,” write an essay in which you define “monotheism” and “polytheism” and explain which form of religion Islam is and how Islam impacts the lives of people in Islamic communities. Support your discussion with evidence from the text.

  18. Impact on Instruction • Common Core alignment • Getting off of the “Content Conveyor Belt” - significant amount of instructional time committed to delving deeper into a topic. • Concrete evidence of non-ELA classes directly impacting literacy achievement • Meaningful collaboration across content areas using the same vocabulary and process • Conversations about data have a new dimension

  19. Impact on Students • Building “Academic Stamina” • Student to student academic conversations based on the content and the writing process • Student buy-in, self reflection and pride • Increased retention of content • Increased student achievement as process is repeated within and across content areas.
