Late Start February 9, 2012 Diane Burtchin
Share with your neighbor: What you already know about the new CCSS and Mathematical Practices What you are hoping to take away from this session
Say “goodbye” to the current standards Discuss the current Mathematical Process Standards and introduce the new Mathematical Practices Explore the Learning Progressions and Critical Areas for KG Mathematics Explore the organization and content of the CCSS Explore the organization and components of the Model Curriculum Discuss next steps
Model Curricula: March 2011 Aligned System of Assessments: Common Core and State Revised Standards: June 2010 What?How? How Well?
5 English Language Arts Mathematics Science Social Studies Common Core Standards State Standards
Focus ◦ Identifies key ideas, understandings and skills for each grade or course ◦ Stresses deep learning, which means applying concepts and skills within the same grade or course Coherence ◦ Articulates a progression of topics across grades and connects to other topics ◦ Vertical growth that reflects the nature of the discipline
Why? When?
Problem solving Reasoning Communication Representation Connections
1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them 2. Reason abstractly and quantitatively 3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others 4. Model with mathematics 5. Use appropriate tools strategically 6. Attend to precision 7. Look for and make use of structure 8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning
Refer to your handouts on both the K-8 Learning Progressions and the KG Critical Areas You can also view these documents at : ages/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRel ationID=1704&ContentID=83475 We begin with the “big picture”
K HS Counting & Cardinality Number and Operations in Base Ten Ratios and Proportional Relationships Number & Quantity Number and Operations – Fractions The Number System Operations and Algebraic Thinking Expressions and EquationsAlgebra Functions Geometry Measurement and DataStatistics and Probability Statistics & Probability
Refer to your handout for the KG Critical Areas (again, they can also be found at) s/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRelationID =1704&ContentID=83475 Note that Critical Areas are discussed in the introduction for each grade level/conceptual categories Discuss in a small group how this information might guide your instructional decisions

This document is designed to help you better understand the changes in your curriculum Use the Comparative Analysis to highlight areas to emphasize, de-emphasize, drop, or modify (when available) It can be found at: ◦ ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRelationID=170 4&ContentID=83475
Standards are the stopping point of the 2002 documents HB1 mandated that a model curricula accompany the revised standards
Model Curricula: March 2011 Aligned System of Assessments: Common Core and State Revised Standards: June 2010 What? How Well? MODEL CURRICULUM One piece of an integrated whole
20 A web-based tool, aligned to the standards, that: Presents information specific to the content area by grade level, grade band and course Provides curricular and instructional guidance Informs assessment development
Model Curriculum at ODE website s/Pages/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&Topic RelationID=1704&ContentID=83475&Conten t= s/Pages/ODE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&Topic RelationID=1704&ContentID=83475&Conten t=112058
Content Elaborations: In-depth information about “what” should be taught Expectations for Learning/Visions into Practice: Recommendations for how students may demonstrate their learning 22
Instructional Strategies and Resources: Guidance and support for instructional and curricular design Content Specific Sections: Address elements specific to a subject area Common Misconceptions 23
Use the Model Curriculum for your grade (or choose a grade) to list 3 things that the Model Curriculum provides for teachers.

2002 Standards 2010 Standards TransitionTransition Start Smart
MistakeProblem Too Slow Ignore the standards…maybe they will go away! 2 nd grade—1 st to take 5 th grade test 5 th grade—1 st to take 8 th grade test 6 th and 7 th grade—1 st to take End of Course HS exams Too Fast Adopt new resources that are ‘aligned’ to the newly revised standards Really…how much has the new edition changed??? Too Little Checklist the standards, shuffle units from one grade level to another, and continue as is New Assessments will have Multiple Choice, SA/ER, Computer Enhanced, and Performance Items Not only new content, but new ways of assessing = new instructional requirements
What can be done Short Term? Become familiar with the CCSS and model curriculum Use the Comparative Analysis to highlight areas to emphasize, de-emphasize, drop, or modify (when available) It can be found at: DE/ODEDetail.aspx?page=3&TopicRelationID=1704 &ContentID=83475 Try some of the model curriculum Instructional Strategies that align with what is currently being taught Teach math with a focus on the Mathematical Practices

State Board Adopts Model Curriculum March, 2011 State Board Adopts Standards June, 2010 First Assessment Administration Transition: Test development Field Testing Standards Setting
This is the consortium that Ohio has chosen for assessments Read about them at:
School Year: Launch and design phase School Year: Development begins School Year: First year pilot/field testing and related research and data collection School Year: Second year pilot/field testing and related research and data collection School Year: Full operational administration of PARCC assessments Summer 2015: Set achievement levels, including college-ready performance levels
We will be meeting again to go over this information in more detail We will work as a group to plan lessons for the new CCSS We will talk at length about resources needed/to be used with the new CCSS In the meantime, please explore and let me know if you have questions THANKS!!!
