1. Math and Science Teacher’s Workshop September 21, 2011 Luke Dowell - Presenter

2. The Common Core State Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers. With American students fully prepared for the future, our communities will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy. http://www.corestandards.org/

3. Aligned with college and work expectations Focused and coherent Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards Internationally benchmarked so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society Based on evidence and research State led – coordinated by NGA Center and CCSSO http://www.corestandards.org/

4. June 2, 2010 - Final Common Core Standards were released June, 2010 - Oklahoma adopted the Common Core Standards October 2010 – Kansas adopted the Common Core Standards Oklahoma Adoption Timeline http://sde.state.ok.us/Curriculum/CommonCore/pdf/ImplementationTimeline.pdf Kansas Adoption Timeline http://www.corestandards.org/

5. Standards for Mathematical Practice Carry across all grade levels Describe habits of mind of a mathematically expert student Standards for Mathematical Content K-8 standards presented by grade level Organized into domains that progress over several grades Grade introductions give 2–4 focal points at each grade level High school standards presented by conceptual theme (Number & Quantity, Algebra, Functions, Modeling, Geometry, Statistics & Probability)
