2 Activating Schema: Shifts in Practice
6 Shifts in ELA/Literacy Balancing Informational and Literary Text Building Knowledge in the Disciplines Staircase of Complexity Text-based Answers Writing from Sources Academic Vocabulary 6 Shifts in Mathematics Focus Coherence Fluency Deep Understanding Applications Dual Intensity

3 ELA/Literacy Shift 1: Balancing Informational and Literary Text
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Build content knowledge Exposure to the world through reading Apply strategies Balance informational & literary text Scaffold for informational texts Teach “through” and “with” informational texts

4 ELA/Literacy Shift 2: 6-12 Knowledge in the Disciplines
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Build content knowledge through text Handle primary source documents Find Evidence Shift identity: “I teach reading.” Stop referring and summarizing and start reading Slow down the history and science classroom

5 ELA Shifts 1 & 2 Popcorn Style: Name a non-fiction text you’ve recently seen a teacher using effectively

6 ELA/Literacy Shift 3: Staircase of Complexity
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Re-read Read material at own level to enjoy meeting tolerate frustration more complex texts at every grade level Give students less to read, let them re-read More time on more complex texts Provide scaffolding & strategies Engage with texts w/ other adults

7 ELA Shift 3 Think about a classroom where you’ve seen a teacher effectively teaching a grade level complex text. Popcorn Style: Share one teacher behavior that makes a close reading of a grade level complex text effective.

8 ELA/Literacy Shift 4: Text Based Answers
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… find evidence to support their argument Form own judgments and become scholars Conducting reading as a close reading of the text engage with the author and his/her choices Facilitate evidence based conversations about text Plan and conduct rich conversations Keep students in the text Identify questions that are text-dependent, worth asking/exploring, deliver richly Spend much more time preparing for instruction by reading deeply.

9 ELA/Literacy Shift 5: Writing from Sources
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… generate informational texts Make arguments using evidence Organize for persuasion Compare multiple sources Spending much less time on personal narratives Present opportunities to write from multiple sources Give opportunities to analyze, synthesize ideas. Develop students’ voice so that they can argue a point with evidence Give permission to reach and articulate their own conclusions about what they read

10 ELA Shifts 5 & 6 In two sentences or less, share a recent example of students engaged in evidence based conversation or writing about text.

11 ELA/Literacy Shift 6: Academic Vocabulary
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Use high octane words across content areas Build “language of power” database Develop students’ ability to use and access words Be strategic about the new vocab words Work with words students will use frequently Teach fewer words more deeply

12 Shift 6 In two sentences or less, share an example of innovative ways of embedding academic vocabulary and/or taking advantage of the ways students acquire vocabulary through reading.

13 Mathematics Shift 1: Focus
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Spend more time on fewer concepts. excise content from the curriculum Focus instructional time on priority concepts Give students the gift of time

14 Priorities in Math Grade Priorities in Support of Rich Instruction and Expectations of Fluency and Conceptual Understanding K–2 Addition and subtraction, measurement using whole number quantities 3–5 Multiplication and division of whole numbers and fractions 6 Ratios and proportional reasoning; early expressions and equations 7 Ratios and proportional reasoning; arithmetic of rational numbers 8 Linear algebra

15 Math Shift 1 In two sentences or less, share a success story of a school, classroom, or grade level that has successfully conducted a “flab analysis” to protect instructional time for the priority standards.

16 Mathematics Shift 2: Coherence
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Build on knowledge from year to year, in a coherent learning progression Connect the threads of math focus areas across grade levels connect to the way content was taught the year before and the years after Focus on priority progressions

17 Mathematics Shift 3: Fluency
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Spend time practicing, with intensity, skills (in high volume) Push students to know basic skills at a greater level of fluency Focus on the listed fluencies by grade level Uses high quality problem sets, in high volume

18 Key Fluencies K Add/subtract within 5 1 Add/subtract within 10 2
Grade Required Fluency K Add/subtract within 5 1 Add/subtract within 10 2 Add/subtract within 20 Add/subtract within 100 (pencil and paper) 3 Multiply/divide within 100 Add/subtract within 1000 4 Add/subtract within 1,000,000 5 Multi-digit multiplication 6 Multi-digit division Multi-digit decimal operations 7 Solve px + q = r, p(x + q) = r 8 Solve simple 22 systems by inspection

19 Math Shift 3 Raise your hand if you’ve seen fluency work in a classroom in the last month.

20 Mathematics Shift 4: Deep Understanding
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Show mastery of material at a deep level Articulate mathematical reasoning demonstrate deep conceptual understanding of priority concepts Create opportunities for students to understand the “answer” from a variety of access points Ensure that EVERY student GETS IT before moving on Get smarter in concepts being taught

21 Deep Conceptual Understanding
In two sentences or less describe a moment where you watched a student reach deep conceptual understanding in Math. In two more sentences: what were the teacher moves that got the student there?

22 Mathematics Shift 5: Application
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Apply math in other content areas and situations, as relevant Choose the right math concept to solve a problem when not necessarily prompted to do so Apply math including areas where its not directly required (i.e. in science) Provide students with real world experiences and opportunities to apply what they have learned

23 Mathematics Shift 6: Dual Intensity
What the Student Does… What the Teacher Does… Practice math skills with an intensity that results in fluency Practice math concepts with an intensity that forces application in novel situations Find the dual intensity between understanding and practice within different periods or different units Be ambitious in demands for fluency and practice, as well as the range of application

24 David Coleman on integrating CCSS & TLE
What are three things Coleman suggests districts do to integrate the Common Core into their teacher effectiveness work? How does Coleman suggest Literacy Shift #3 inform observation of teacher practice? How does Coleman characterize the progression of teacher knowledge and skill in Common Core implementation?

25 Collecting your materials
