Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects
The body of the 2010 document is divided into 3 sections (K-5, 6-12 ELAS, & History/Social Studies, Science & Technical Subjects)
As you can see:
K-5 is comprehensive (usually taught by 1 teacher so history, social studies, science and technical subjects are embedded)
6-12 is divided into 2 sections to honor English Language Arts teachers as well as teachers of History/Social Studies, Science and Technical Subjects.
ELA literacy standards are provided for grades 6, 7, 8, then a band* and band*
Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8 band*, 9-10 band*, and band*
*Remember: two-year bands to provide flexibility for course design in schools and districts.

4. Why Did We Need the CCR Standards for Literacy?
Complexity of college texts has increased throughout the years, but k- 12 text complexity has declined making our students highly unprepared for college!
Too many of our students are reading at too low a level to be successful in college and life.
Common Core aligns text complexity to Lexile ranges to better prepare our students for the real world.
Bottom Line:***Our students need to read more and read at higher levels!!!!!!!

1. With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
2. With prompting and support, retell familiar stories, including key details.
With prompting and support, identify characters, settings, and major events in a story.
This slide focuses on the Reading Literature Strand-RL.
Strands include: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language (K-12)
All reading strands including both reading literature and informational text share common clusters (taken from the College and Career Readiness standards).
Craft and Structure
Ask and answer questions about unknown words in a text.
Recognize common types of texts (e.g., storybooks, poems).
With prompting and support, name the author and illustrator of a story and define the role of each in telling a story.

13. Structure of Mathematics Standards
Domain (Topic)
Grade Level
Standard
The architecture of each grade level K-8 is the same. The grade level is organized by domains.
Domains are larger groups of related standards organized around the same topic. Standards from different domains may sometimes be closely related.
Clusters are smaller groups of related standards. Note that standards from different clusters may sometimes be closely related, because mathematics is a connected subject.
Standards define what students should understand and be able to do.
Make the connection to prior knowledge. What would be the term for ‘Domain’ in the ELA standards? Strand

14. Coding for Mathematics Standards
4.MD.1
Standard 1
Grade 4
The new coding for the standards is distinctly different. Please note that the cluster is not included in the coding because the standards are numbered sequentially within a domain even though there may be several clusters contained within a domain.

15. Mathematical Practices
GRADE 3 Operations and Algebraic Thinking (OA) Represent and solve problems involving multiplication and division.
Standards
Students are expected to:
Mathematical Practices
Explanations and Examples
3.OA.1. Interpret products of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 5 × 7 as the total number of objects in 5 groups of 7 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a total number of objects can be expressed as 5 × 7.
Connections: 3.0A.3; ET03-S1C4-01
3.MP.1. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them.
3.MP.4. Model with mathematics.
3.MP.7. Look for and make use of structure.
Students recognize multiplication as a means to determine the total number of objects when there are a specific number of groups with the same number of objects in each group. Multiplication requires students to think in terms of groups of things rather than individual things. Students learn that the multiplication symbol ‘x’ means “groups of” and problems such as 5 x 7 refer to 5 groups of 7.
To further develop this understanding, students interpret a problem situation requiring multiplication using pictures, objects, words, numbers, and equations. Then, given a multiplication expression (e.g., 5 x 6) students interpret the expression using a multiplication context. (See Glossary, table 2) They should begin to use the terms, factor and product, as they describe multiplication.
Technology Connections: Create digital models using IWB software or
3.OA.2. Interpret whole-number quotients of whole numbers, e.g., interpret 56 ÷ 8 as the number of objects in each share when 56 objects are partitioned equally into 8 shares, or as a number of shares when 56 objects are partitioned into equal shares of 8 objects each. For example, describe a context in which a number of shares or a number of groups can be expressed as 56 ÷ 8.
Connections: 3.OA.3; ET03-S1C4-01
Students recognize the operation of division in two different types of situations. One situation requires determining how many groups and the other situation requires sharing (determining how many in each group). Students should be exposed to appropriate terminology (quotient, dividend, divisor, and factor).
To develop this understanding, students interpret a problem situation requiring division using pictures, objects, words, numbers, and equations. Given a division expression (e.g., 24 ÷ 6) students interpret the expression in contexts that require both interpretations of division. (See Glossary, table 2)

Please point out the domain and cluster for review.
The format of the grade level documents is modeled after our current standard.
The difference is that S5C2 performance objectives have been replaced with the Mathematical Practices.
The far left column lists the standards and the far right column contains the explanations and examples.
The explanations and examples is the living part of the document and will periodically be revisited, reviewed, and updated.
This slide also highlights the connections and Mathematical Practices. Please share how the committee indicated technology connections when appropriate.
Give folks 5 minutes to peruse their grade level documents.

19. How will FUSD get our students prepared for the 2014-2015 assessment?
This Year:
We have implemented Common Core in Kindergarten and First Grade for Math and ELA.
We are piloting Common Core Benchmarks for First Grade through Galileo
Math: for all grades we are using Mathematical Practices in our curriculum.
Literacy: for all grades we have included the CC standards into our planning guides.
Dr. Fuller and the I.S. team are developing a 5 Year Plan to fully implement the Common Core and provide professional development based on the options that ADE has provided.
