Objective #1: Understand the background and
purpose of the Common Core State Standards.
• History of the CCSS initiative
• Purpose behind this work
• Why it is important for Washington to adopt?
Where were you in 1993? • That is when the Washington’s Basic Education
Act was passed which lead to our current EALRs, GLEs, and standards.
• The People History http://www.thepeoplehistory.com/1993.html
• In the last 19 years we have seen them developed and revised as they have been in every state in the nation.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative
Initiative Team
• National Governor’s Association
• Council of Chief State Officers
Team’s Purposes
• To improve U.S. educational attainment by focusing on higher learning goals
• To standardize educational
opportunity • To focus attention on fewer,
higher, & better standards

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 21st
century.
11/10/11 CCSS with ESD 105 District Leadership 8 Class of 2011: Bridgeport High School
In the Past…
The CCSS are built on back-mapping from college and career readiness expectations
12th Grade
Kindergarten
College & Career Readiness
Common Core State Standards
• Define the knowledge
and skills students
need for college and
career
• Developed voluntarily
and cooperatively by
states; more than 40
states have adopted
• Provide clear,
consistent standards in
English language
arts/Literacy and
mathematics

Objective #2: CCSS Math Standards Organization and Shifts
• Common Core Math Standards (for content) are very closely aligned to the Washington State Math Standards (2008)
12
Math Organization • Table of Contents • Introduction
• Standards for Mathematical Practice • Standards for Mathematical Content • Kindergarten 9 • Grade 1 13 • Grade 2 17 • Grade 3 21 • Grade 4 27 • Grade 5 33 • Grade 6 39 • Grade 7 46 • Grade 8 52 • High School — Introduction • High School — Number and Quantity 58 • High School — Algebra 62 • High School — Functions 67 • High School — Modeling 72 • High School — Geometry 74 • High School — Statistics and Probability 79 • Glossary 85 • Sample of Works Consulted 91
More than a new set of standards mapped to your old curriculum
It is about:
1. New ways of thinking about mathematics
2. Instilling higher order thinking skills
3. Students ready for college and career

Objective 2: Overview the organization and
shifts of the English Language Arts standards
Organization of ELA Standards
READING 10 College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards

Language Language
In the Past… • Standards where lists of skills and strategies
written in somewhat random order
Now… • The CCSS have very strong vertical
progressions.
RL = Reading Literature RI = Reading Information RH = Reading History / Social Studies RST = Reading Science / Technical
1. Read the kindergarten standard.
2. Highlight what is different as you read up the grades.
In the Past…
• Standards focused on strategies and skills while text was irrelevant or uncontrolled
Now…
• The CCSS place text complexity as central. Skills and strategies have to be executed in texts of a specific difficulty range.
How does
text
complexity
define the
ELA
standards?
Reading standard
#10 defines the
rigor of standards
#1-9.
January 2012 33 CSS Webinar Series Part 2: ELA
Objective 3: Understand what is meant by
disciplinary literacy and how this is connected to the Common Core.
In the Past… • Standards emphasized learning how to read
and assumed that students would be able to apply these skills to all reading material.
Now… • The CCSS recognizes unique reading demands
within the disciplines.
• Turn to the Reading Anchor Standards. – Circle the key words in number 1-2
• Turn to the Writing Anchor Standards – Circle the key words in 3-4
• Turn to the Listening and Speaking Anchor Standards – Circle key words in 1 and 5
• Turn to the Language Anchor Standards – Circle the key words in 4 and 6
Turn to the person next to you and discuss how these key words apply outside of the language arts.

Objective 4: Overview what we know about the Smarter Balance Assessment and its connection to the Common Core

Assessments Concern with Today’s Assessment Next Generation Assessments
Each state pays for its own assessments
Economies of scale
Based on individual state standards that may not equal college and career readiness
Based on common standards that predict college and career readiness
Heavy use of multiple choice Probes that will more accurately measure cognitive skill and deep thinking; use multiple measures
Results delivered long after tests are given
Administered on-line with timely results
Accommodations for special education and ELL students vary
More appropriate accommodations; achievement and growth information

Objective #5: How is technology connected to the Common Core?
• ELA Introduction section page 4
• Reading Anchor Standards p. 10 – Standard 7
• Writing Anchor Standards p. 18 – Standards 6, 7, 8
• Speaking and Listening Anchor Standards p. 22 – Standards 2, 4, 5
Review the grade band breakdowns on these standards.

In order to implement the Common Core for the benefit of your students
• What do you need to learn?
• What do you need to do?
Objective 6: Reflect on your next steps
As you work with the Common Core State Standards this year remember
• To get the whole picture your analysis needs to be thorough
• You are clarifying where you want the students to be
• You are setting up all the elements of the campfire so that it will ignite….never lose site of the excitement of when our students make that cognitive leap and really get it.
• And finally…
The standards are a tool.
We are the ones that make
learning come to life
