9. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) were:  developed by the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) and the National Governor’s Association (NGA) Center for Best Practices  formally released on June 2, 2010  adopted by 45 states and territories

10. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice CCSS: A Major Challenge/Opportunity COLLEGE and CAREER readiness expectations  Rigorous CONTENT and APPLICATIONS  Stress CONCEPTUAL UNDERSTANDING as well as procedural skills  Organized around MATHEMATICAL PRINCIPLES FOCUS and COHERENCE  Designed around RESEARCH-BASED LEARNING PROGRESSIONS whenever possible.

12. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice What’s different about CCSS? These Standards are NOT intended to be NEW NAMES FOR OLD WAYS OF DOING BUSINESS. They are a call to take the next step. It is time for states to work together to build on lessons learned from two decades of standards-based reforms. It is time to recognize that standards are not just promises to our children, but promises we intend to keep. — CCSS (2010, p.5)

43. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice NEWTON’S REVENGE Task Have you heard about Newton’s Revenge, the new roller coaster? It’s so big, fast, and scary that people are already starting to talk. Some people are worried about the tunnel that thrills riders with its very low ceiling. The closest the ceiling of the tunnel ever comes to the seat of the roller-coaster car is 200 cm. Although no accidents have been reported yet, rumors have been spreading that very tall riders have broken their arms as they went through the tunnel with their arms raised over their heads. Unfortunately, due to these rumors, many tall people have stopped riding the coaster. Algebra Connections

44. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Teammates Consult Participants will be organized into teams…  Step 1: Pencils down… individuals read silently and then come up with ideas.  Step 2: Teams discuss the problem and develop a plan.  Step 3: The team will share the plan with the facilitator.  Step 4: The team can pick up their pencils and begin working on the problem.

66. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice So What’s Different About the CCSS? Accountability

67. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where NOT to start  Do not begin by aligning CCSS standards grade-by-grade with existing mathematics standards.  Do not start by focusing on teaching “a” standard.

68. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where TO start The Eight Standards for Mathematical Practice

69. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where TO start There is research on PD practices that are most effective in supporting teacher learning; use it! Pres. J. Michael Shaughnessy, NCTM Summing Up, 12-2011

70. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where TO start Target a few selected practices to address in depth. These practices must be embedded in discussions about content. Pres. J. Michael Shaughnessy, NCTM Summing Up, 12-2011

71. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where TO start Avoid a fragmented menu of varied professional development offerings! Pres. J. Michael Shaughnessy, NCTM Summing Up, 12-2011

72. Common Core State Standards for Mathematical Practice Implementing CCSS: Where TO start Include a variety of stakeholders in whatever PD is offered – don’t compartmentalize it; bring groups together. Pres. J. Michael Shaughnessy, NCTM Summing Up, 12-2011
