CCSS Implementation Plan Review the current implementation plan with your team (Commendations & Recommendations) Highlight gaps in the plan and discuss what options we have to address gaps Share: which ones does your team agree are most essential to include in revision of plan? Make revisions, plan to colleagues – read & provide feedback to peers Review Key Questions for the Strand

Common Ground Teamwork - Did the plan address the following: Green Team: Jackie, Rich & Rod How does the team develop school-wide literacy practices? How does the use of literacy strategies connect to the CCSS? What are the literacy strategies unique to each content area? How does the team develop text-based assessments across the content areas? Blue Team: Barbara Sterling & Takiyah What systems & structures need to be in place to support an inclusive culture wherein all students are successful learners? How do you use the formative assessment process to differentiate instruction? What is the process for addressing individual needs of students who are not responding to interventions?

Common Ground Solutions Professional Development Plan: What are your roles? *Design a high-quality professional development program that includes: 3 face to face day PD trainings with built in and facilitated collaboration and planning time, webinars (follow up/Q&A post- training) recorded and archived, and 3 face to face regional evening (evidence/artifact sharing) sessions. *Equip Guiding Teams with Common Core aligned tools and strategies. *Support districts and charters with an assigned DDOE Liaison *Provide samples of exemplary implementation

Common Ground Solutions Evidence Placemat – What artifacts will we collect to demonstrate CCSS alignment and student success *Develop a plan that will guide a school-wide Common Core culture. *Be committed to, and curious and informed about the Common Core Standards. *Execute the plan throughout the school year to transfer the Common Ground professional development to practice through formal (training) and informal (PLCs, coaching) structures. *Monitor and gather evidence for the five levels of implementation throughout the school year using the Guskey professional development evaluation framework.
