• Increase Reading of Informational Texts
• Text Complexity
• Academic Vocabulary
• Recognition and Use of Textual Evidence
• Literacy Instruction in Content Areas
Mathematics Shifts (CCSS) Focus
Coherence
Procedural Fluency
Deep Conceptual Understanding
Applications (Modeling)
Balanced Emphasis (Practice and Application)
The framework is designed to help realize a vision for education in the sciences and engineering in which students, over multiple years of school, actively engage in science and engineering practices and apply crosscutting concepts to deepen their understanding of the core ideas in these fields.

NGSS Science Standards will be finished by April 2013.
Summary: Shifts in the Teaching and Learning of Science Organize around limited number of core ideas.
Favor depth and coherence over breadth of coverage.
Core ideas need to be revisited in increasing depth, and sophistication across years. Focus needs to be on connections: Careful construction of a storyline – helping learners build
sophisticated ideas from simpler explanations, using evidence.
Connections between scientific disciplines, using powerful ideas (nature of matter, energy) across life, physical, and environmental sciences
