Common Misconceptions in draft Math Curriculum Progressions Are students steadily acquiring knowledge and skills along the progressions? Focus Are the focus standards being addressed primarily? Micro Standards or All-in-One Standards Are students learning bits of standards at a time? Teachers are still doing all the thinking If you read between the lines, who will actually be thinking and talking math publicly? EngageNY.org17

The Wizard of Oz Use details and evidence to support your answers! What motivates Dorothy? What role do the red shoes play? What element of the human psyche does the lion represent? What is the climax of the story? How many settings are there in the story? Is it real or is it a dream? What is the theme? EngageNY.org23
24
Just a Sentence & a Standard EngageNY.org24 From Sherman Alexie’s “Every Little Hurricane”: “Although it was winter, the nearest ocean four hundred miles away, and the Tribal Weatherman asleep because of-boredom, a hurricane dropped from the sky in 1976 and fell so hard on the Spokane Indian Reservation that it knocked Victor from bed and his latest nightmare.” 9.RL.4: Determine the meaning of words and phrases as they are used in the text, including figurative and connotative meanings; analyze the cumulative impact of specific word choices on meaning and tone.
25
Pre-CCSS Questions What weather words and phrases does the author use? Alexie uses the paradox of fighting at a party, two seemingly incompatible events that nonetheless occur. What other examples of paradox appear in the story, and why might that be? Which character to you most resemble? Why? How does the author use one or more major metaphors (storms, water, drowning)? Write a brief summary of the text, its relationship to events, and its use of symbolism and paradox to illustrate it major theme. EngageNY.org25
26
Reading Targets EngageNY.org26 CCSS goal: students leave the lesson having read, analyzed and understood what they have READ. Current goal: Students leave the lesson knowing the details of the narrative and the way a particular “element” is playing out.
27
A Common Concern: Literary Elements (Now part of a greater whole…) 2: Determine a theme or central idea of a text and analyze in detail its development over the course of the text including how it emerges and is shaped and refined by specific details; provide an objective summary of the text. 3.Analyze how complex characters develop over the course of a text, interact with others, and advance the plot or develop the theme. 4.Analyze how an author’s choices concerning how to structure a text, order events within it (e.g. parallel plots) and manipulate time (e.g. pacing, flashbacks) create such effects as mystery, tension, and surprise. EngageNY.org27
28
A Common Concern… Stamina/ Miles on the Page There is a difference between witnessing the scope of the narrative and conducting analysis of words on the page. Details of the narrative are not sufficient evidence for marshaling an argument. Close reading is a mission critical activity if students are to be able to tackle the number and complexity of texts assigned to them in college. True stamina will come. EngageNY.org28
29
Common Misconceptions in draft ELA curriculum… Low Rigor Questions and Activities What are the kids actually doing? Do the activities and questions require them to be able to read, understand, and analyze? Pacing of Texts When is the “reading” actually happening? Micro Standards or All-in-One Standards Teachers are still doing all the thinking If you read between the lines, who will end up making the meaning? EngageNY.org29

What we’ve learned… Highly Qualified Writers and Reviewers take up to 6 months to calibrate Devotion to/ experience in a content area does not a CCSS writer/ reviewer make A good teacher does not a curriculum writer/ reviewer make Much of what must shift is sacred Rhetorical alignment and actual alignment are two different things CCSS stickers are easy to produce; true quality, rigor, and alignment are not It often takes 6-8 revision cycles to get to necessary levels of quality/ rigor/ alignment EngageNY.org33
