E N D
Presentation Objectives • TLW: • understand the development process and design of the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) • become familiar with the ELA components of the CCSS • become familiar with the Math components of the CCSS • understand the CCSS assessment development and timeline for implementation • be able to locate CCSS website resources • discuss and develop an implementation plan for the CCSS at the building level
CCSS Development • The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI), coordinated by the National Governors Association Center for Best Practices (NGA Center) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics standards. • 48 states supported the concept • 40 states have officially adopted them • External and state feedback teams provided on-going feedback to writing teams throughout the process • Revisions made in response to feedback • Final standards released June 2, 2010 • Michigan State Board of Education adopted in June 15, 2010
CCSS are: • Aligned with college and work expectations • Internationally benchmarked so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society • Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards • Based on evidence and research • Robust and relevant to the real world • Focused and coherent • Fewer, clearer, and higher standards (???)
The Common Core State Standards do NOT define: • How teachers should teach • All that can or should be taught • The nature of advanced work beyond the core • The interventions needed for students well below grade level • The full range of support for English Language Learners and students with special needs • The assessment framework
Along with CCSS, • • Educators must be given resources, tools, and time to adjust classroom practice. • • Instructional materials needed that align to the standards. • • Assessments must be developed to measure student progress. • • Federal, state, and district policies will need to be reexamined to ensure they support alignment of the common core state standards with student achievement.
Design and Organization Cluster • Content standards define what students should understand and be able to do • Clusters are groups of related standards • Domains are larger groups that progress across grades Domain Standard
Design and Organization Eight Mathematical Practices • Carry across all grade levels • Describe habits of mind of a mathematically expert student
CCSS - Eight Standards for Mathematical Practice • 1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • 4. Model with mathematics. • 5. Use appropriate tools strategically. • 6. Attend to precision. • 7. Look for and make use of structure. • 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.
Design and Organization State Standards for Mathematical Content • K-8 standards presented by grade level • Posters available • At http://store.kressdesign2.com/ • Address label stickers • At http://www.mictm.org/
Design and Organization State Standards for Mathematical Content • Organized into domains that progress over several grades
Fractions, Grades 3–6 • 3. Develop an understanding of fractions as numbers. • 4. Extend understanding of fraction equivalence and ordering. • 4. Build fractions from unit fractions by applying and extending previous understandings of operations on whole numbers. • 4. Understand decimal notation for fractions, and compare decimal fractions. • 5. Use equivalent fractions as a strategy to add and subtract fractions. • 5. Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to multiply and divide fractions. • 6. Apply and extend previous understandings of multiplication and division to divide fractions by fractions.
Design and Organization State Standards for Mathematical Content • Grade introductions give 2–4 focal points at each grade level
Design and Organization State Standards for Mathematical Content • High school standards presented by conceptual theme
High School Conceptual themes in high school • Number and Quantity • Algebra • Functions • Modeling • Geometry • Statistics and Probability
CCSS and GLCE Comparisons • Two Resources: • Michigan Department of Education • http://michigan.gov/documents/mde/CCS_Math_Alignment_Intro_4-23-10_sc_319725_7.pdf • Michigan Council of Mathematics • Documents are called “Crosswalks” • Long form and short form • http://www.mictm.org/
Race to the Top Assessment Competition • Assessment Consortia • Development of an infrastructure and content for a common assessment in measuring CCSS in English Language Arts and Mathematics • Two consortia • SMARTER/Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) • Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Career (PARCC)
Assessment Update • A new assessment system will be implemented in 2014-2015 and will be based on the work of the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium • This will be a ‘system of formative and summative assessments, organized around Common Core standards, that • support high-quality learning and the demands of accountability • balance concerns for innovative assessment with the need for a fiscally sustainable system that is feasible to implement’
Assessment Prototype • 19 Multiple Choice questions • 3 Constructed Response questions • 18 Technologically Enhanced • 2 Performance Events • Possibly scored by local teachers first
Timeline for transitioning 2010-2011 Getting to know the CCSS/Alignment work 2010 MEAP/2011MME remain the same State focus will be on technical assistance 2011-2012 Implementation of CCSS in classrooms 2011 MEAP/2012 MME remain the same State focus will be on instruction/professional development 2012-2013 2012 MEAP minimally modified as necessary to reflect the CCSS 2013 MME remains the same State focus will be on student learning 2013-2014 2013 MEAP based on 2012 model 2014 MME remains the same State focus will be on preparing for new assessments from SMARTER Consortium 2014-2015 Full implementation: Instruction and assessment based on CCSS
