DESCRIPTION
If we know what students will face when they get to college, we should be able to design a high school program that will help prepare them. This slideshow explores the performance tasks, scaffolding, and mapping that schools can undertake in order to ensure that students have multiple opportunities to learn the skills required to meet the demands of college.TRANSCRIPT

We all want to see our students graduate from high school …
But what happens after graduation?

For every graduate who makes it to college, in their 1st year, they will be asked to…
• Write 90-100 polished pages• Read 5000 pages• Complete 6-8 Final Exams• Write 30 problem sets• Complete 10 labs• Undertake 4 research papers• Write 12 Argument Essays & Position Papers

For every 8 who make it to college … 3 will never finish.
But what happens after graduation?

For every 8 who make it to college … 5 will need remedial
classes.
But what happens after graduation?

tasks for a student’s high school career.

If they will write 90-100 pages in the freshman
year of college, what do they need to write in the freshman year of HS?
![Page 21: Preparing Students for the Demands of a Freshman Year in College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051816/5445b99dafaf9fdf2a8b463b/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
If they will read 5000 pages in the freshman year of college,
how many pages will they need to read in 9th grade?
![Page 22: Preparing Students for the Demands of a Freshman Year in College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051816/5445b99dafaf9fdf2a8b463b/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
If they will perform 72 times as freshman in college, how many times should they
perform as freshman in high school?

Who should introduce students to these
performances? When? How? Who should follow
up on providing opportunities to practice?

• We assign work similar to the work students will see in college.
• We build stamina by gradually increasing the load. • We support competency by providing multiple opportunities
to practice Common Core aligned college prep tasks.

Aligning to the Common Core
The Common Core Standards are complex, requiring students to be able to easily use many skills concurrently.
![Page 36: Preparing Students for the Demands of a Freshman Year in College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051816/5445b99dafaf9fdf2a8b463b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Writing Standard 3
Write narratives to develop
real or imagined experiences
or events using effective
technique, well-chosen details
and well-structured event
sequences.

The Performance Tasks are Designed to address the complexity, in 2 ways
![Page 39: Preparing Students for the Demands of a Freshman Year in College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051816/5445b99dafaf9fdf2a8b463b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The Performance Tasks are Designed to address the complexity, in 2 ways
1. The Formative Assessment Tasks
![Page 40: Preparing Students for the Demands of a Freshman Year in College](https://reader033.vdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022051816/5445b99dafaf9fdf2a8b463b/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Tasks are modular, intentionally repetitive,
and adaptable.

2. Each Formative Assessment Task supports teachers with
strategicially selected activities to support a skills-oriented
approach to the tasks.

The Genome is designed with multiple entry points
After a skill is identified, a teacher could identify an effective activity for
helping students meet Anchor Standard 3 for Writing: Write
narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective
technique, well-chosen details and well-structured event sequences.
