13.  Content standards in this document contain minimum required content.  Each content standard completes the phrase “Students will.”  Reflect both mathematical understandings and skills, which are equally important.

14.  Conceptual Categories Cross course boundaries Span high school years  Standards – “Core” for common mathematics curriculum for all students to be college and career ready – “College and Career Ready” for entry-level, credit- bearing academic college courses and work-force training programs. – “STEM” (+) Additional mathematics that students should learn in order to take courses such as calculus, discrete mathematics, or advanced statistics.

21. Confrey (2007) “Developing sequenced obstacles and challenges for students…absent the insights about meaning that derive from careful study of learning, would be unfortunate and unwise.” CCSS, p. 4 “… the development of these Standards began with research-based learning progressions detailing what is known today about how students’ mathematical knowledge, skill, and understanding develop over time.”

22. Read the excerpt from Learning Trajectories in Mathematics: A Foundation for Standards, Curriculum, Assessment, and Instruction  Identify 3 ideas that you are willing to talk about with colleagues.  Highlight the location in the text where these ideas appear.

23.  Designate a facilitator and timekeeper.  A volunteer begins by reading the sentence(s) from the text that embody one of his/her selected ideas. The speaker does not comment on the text at this point.  The individual to right of first speaker takes up to one minute to comment on the selected text.  The next two individuals also take up to one minute to comment on the initial speaker’s idea.  The individual selecting the idea has up to 1 minutes to react to colleagues’ ideas and to talk about why she or he thought this was important.  Another group member introduces one idea, and the group follows the same protocol. Continue until all members have shared or until time is called.

24. Learning Trajectories – sometimes called learning progressions – are sequences of learning experiences hypothesized and designed to build a deep and increasingly sophisticated understanding of core concepts and practices within various disciplines. The trajectories are based on empirical evidence of how students’ understanding actually develops in response to instruction and where it might break down. Daro, Mosher, & Corcoran, 2011
