COMMON CORE UNIT ORGANIZER Dr. Judy VanVoorhis, Melanie Wightman, and Gayle Geitgey and Melissa Higgs, INFOhio with Christine Garver, Bellefontaine and Shannon Fitz, Franklin Local School Districts September 18, 2013

Presented by SOAR and the Ohio Appalachian Collaborative © 2013, Battelle for Kids. All Rights Reserved. Learning Targets  Learn strategies for TBTs and collaboration teams to develop aligned units of instruction for ELA K–12 and Math K–6.  Understand how units of instruction provide deeper learning for students when the standards work together to support higher level questioning and scaffolding.  Learn how to use the Common Core and PARCC materials that help teachers align curriculum, instruction and assessment.  Understand where to find no cost resources to support the development of units.

Presented by SOAR and the Ohio Appalachian Collaborative © 2013, Battelle for Kids. All Rights Reserved. Common Core Stages: 1. Awareness – teachers receive lists of standards, hear about components/goals (e.g. shifts, college career anchors standards) 2. Application – teachers work together on developing units [today’s workshop] 3. Embedded – evidence of common core standards through throughout the whole system (classrooms, students, parents, district wide)
