2. Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveler, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowth; I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages hence: Two roads diverged in a wood, and I – I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference. 2

11. Units of Study Model A series of specific lessons, learning experiences, and related assessments — based on targeted Priority Standards & supporting standards — for an instructional focus that may last anywhere from two to six weeks. 11

12. Common Core Standards: Insufficient By themselves “To be effective in improving education and getting all students ready for college, workforce training, and life, the Common Core State Standards must be partnered with a content-rich curriculum and robust assessments, both aligned to the Standards.” CCSSI Webinar, 2010 12

Unit of Study Defined 17

18. Units of Study intentionally aligned components sequenced units of study. A rigorous curriculum is an inclusive set of intentionally aligned components—clear learning outcomes with matching assessments, engaging learning experiences, and instructional strategies—organized into sequenced units of study. 18

19. Unit of Study… detailed road map high- quality delivery system A rigorous curriculum serves as both the detailed road map and the high- quality delivery system for ensuring that all students achieve the desired end: the attainment of their designated grade- or course-specific standards within a particular content area. 19

20. Priority Standards Defined use reasoning and thinking skills Priority Standards are “those standards that, once mastered, give a student the ability to use reasoning and thinking skills to learn and understand other curriculum objectives.” - Dr. Douglas Reeves 20

21. Supporting Standards Defined support, connect toenhance within the context same Supporting standards are those standards that support, connect to, or enhance the Priority Standards. They are taught within the context the Priority Standards, but do not receive the same degree of instruction and assessment emphasis as do the Priority Standards. 21

22. An Important Message Prioritization, Not Elimination! 22

23. Let’s Look at Our Units! 23

24. One of the GOALS for today is to answer this Essential Question: 24 How will Units of Study support teachers in maximizing achievement for ALL students?

25. Assigning the Standards multiple units 1)Distribute Priority Standards across multiple units as long as it makes instructional sense to do so. 2)Distribute Supporting Standards across multiple units. multiple units 1)Distribute Priority Standards across multiple units as long as it makes instructional sense to do so. 2)Distribute Supporting Standards across multiple units. 25

26. schedule A pacing calendar is a yearlong (or course-long) schedule for delivering all of the planned units of study for a designated grade level or course, not the daily lessons to be used within units. Units Pacing Guide Defined 26

27. Buffer Days Pacing calendar is different than the past. Buffer time is now included between units. Suggested ways for use of Buffer Days Assess/ Re-Assess Review Reteach Extension

28. Unit One – Review and Discuss Priority Standards Distributing Priority Standards Pacing Guide Buffer Days \\jusd.dom\public\MyJUSD\public\JUSD CCSS Standards\ELA\ELA Standards How is this pacing different than in the past? How is this beneficial for teachers? 28

29. “Unwrapping” “Unwrapping” the Priority Standards Skills (verbs) Concepts (nouns – noun phrases) Graphic Organizer Bloom’s DOK (we will go over this later) 29

30. “Unwrapping” the Standards Identifying What Students Must Know and Be Able To Do in the Wording of the Standards

31. Identify the key concepts (important nouns or noun phrases) by underlining them. Identify the skills (verbs) by circling them or writing them in CAPS. “Unwrap” Selected Priority Standards 31

32. 32 Bloom’s levels refer to the student’s level of thinking during instruction.

33. Unit One – Review and Discuss “Unwrapped” Standards Bloom’s Taxonomy ELA – Scaffolding How can “unwrapped” standards benefit teachers? 33

34. What Do You Think Is More Engaging for Students? Big Idea Good readers a) Identify the main idea of the text and explain how it is supported by details. b) Determine which details are key to the text. c) Use key details and the main idea to summarize. d) Explain what happened and why it happened based on information in the text. Essential Question How do good readers take details and examples to explain the main idea of a text? 34

35. The Big Ideas remember long after instruction endsFoundational understandings students will remember long after instruction ends What you want students to discover as a result of the learning experienceWhat you want students to discover as a result of the learning experience The larger concepts or main ideasThe larger concepts or main ideas The student’s answer or response to a related Essential Question 35

36. Big Ideas Writers create a report on an informational text or topic by: a) Introducing a topic clearly, grouping related information in paragraphs, and using descriptive details. b) Developing a topic with appropriate facts, definitions, concrete details, and quotations related to the topic. c) Providing a concluding statement to the information presented. 36

37. Essential Questions Questions, not statements, stimulate student curiosity to find the answers! 37

38. Characteristics of Essential Questions Cannot be answered with a “yes” or “no” Have no single obvious right answer Cannot be answered from rote memory Match the rigor of the “unwrapped” standard Go beyond who, what, when, and where to how and why Moves away from procedural to conceptual understanding Makes it relevant 38

39. Essential Questions How does a writer create a report on a topic from an informational text? 39

40. Unit One – Review and Discuss The Big Ideas The Essential Questions How will this change Instruction? 40

41. Designing Quality Assessments Identify purpose Select best type for purpose Make inferences Guide instruction Aligned with standards High rigor 41

42. DOK  DOK is about the test item NOT the student. DOK refers the complexity of the assessment. 42

43. DOK 1: Recall and Reproduction Recall facts, information; reproduce simple process/procedure DOK 2: Skills and Concepts Make decisions about a question or problem; more than one step DOK 3: Strategic Thinking Develop a plan, use evidence, choose more than one answer, justify response DOK 4: Extended Thinking Apply conceptual understanding, investigate connections, relate ideas, devise an approach among alternatives—needs extended time 43

44. On the new SBAC test, 68% of the test is DOK 3 and 4. On the old STAR Test, 0% of the test was DOK 4 On the old STAR test, 80% of the test was Bloom’s Level 1. 44

45. Summative Assessments FORMATS  Selected response  Short constructed response  Extended constructed response  Technology enhanced  Performance tasks (ELA only)  CAASPP- California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress formerly SBAC

46. Pre & Post Assessment Included with every unit Mirrored, aligned, blended Administered by all teachers Formative use Pre-assessment drives our instruction Formative and summative use Post Assessment drives reteaching instruction 46

47. Pre & Post Assessment Selected-Response questions Answer key provided (teacher copy) Constructed-Response questions Rubric provided (teacher/student copy) Aligned to SBAC type questions 47

48. Scoring Guides for Assessments The scoring guide is a specific criteria describing different levels of student proficiency relative to assessments. Ainsworth, L., 2011 48

49. Rubric – an example Thorough 4 Adequate 3 Partial 2 Minimal 1 Meets all of the proficient criteria PLUS            Meets 3 or 4 of the proficient criteria Meets 2 or fewer of the proficient criteria How can rubrics help students? 49

50. Unit One – Review and Discuss Pre-Assessment Post-Assessment Student Copy Teacher Copy Rubrics Notice how they are aligned to the priority standards Post-AssessmentPre-Assessment 50

51. “Levels of student performance improve when instruction focuses on: active learning, real-world contexts, higher-level thinking skills, extended writing, and demonstration.” Robert Marzano The Art and Science of Teaching, 2007 51

52. Math Different Here Next 7 slides ELA only

53. Performance Task Defined “Performance tasks provide an opportunity to challenge students to apply their knowledge and skills to respond to complex, real-world problems. They can best be described as collections of questions and tasks presented to students that are coherently connected to a single theme or scenario.”

54. Terms and Definitions Performance Task = A single assessment Performance Assessment = A collection of related performance tasks 54

55. Key Points to Remember When Designing Performance Tasks What are your desired end results for student learning? Can you “work backwards” – start with a culminating task and then create the lead-up tasks to get there? 55

56. Relationship between Tasks and Engaging Scenario “Why are we doing it?” Engaging scenario answers question: “Why are we doing it?” “What are we going to do?” Performance tasks answer question: “What are we going to do?” 56

57. Engaging Scenario How will you “hook” the students? 57

58. Effective Engaging Scenarios Contain Five Key Elements S What is the situation? C What is the challenge? R What role(s) does the student assume? A Who is the audience (preferably an external audience)? P What is the product/performance student will demonstrate and/or create? 58

59. Is Your Scenario Truly Engaging? Acid test: If there were no standards driving instruction and assessment, would this scenario be so compelling students and teachers would WANT to work on these tasks? 59

60. What is Proficiency? 60

61. Terminology Proficiency/ Adequate The level of performance students must meet to demonstrate attainment of a particular standards (Thorough, Adequate, Partial, Minimal) 61

62. Terminology *Anchor Papers Student-produced work samples at exemplary/ thorough and proficient/ adequate levels of performance on the scoring guide. * Coming soon 62

63. Terminology Scoring Guide (Rubric) A set of general and/or specific criteria used to evaluate student performance on a given task or item 63

64. Unit One – Review and Discuss Performance Assessment Look at S ituation C hallenge R oles A udience P roduct/ P erformance Look at each task Student Copy Teacher Copy Rubrics Notice how they are aligned to the priority standards 64

65. Range of Effect Sizes for Feedback 0.04 for praise (minimal impact) 0.46 for feedback associated with progress toward stated goals 0.95 for detailed feedback on the specific task and the processes the student is using to master it J. Hattle and H. Timperley, “The Power of Feedback,“ Review of Educational Research, 2007 65

67. Unit One – Review and Discuss Review the rest of the unit organizer What else is included? 67

68. Weekly Lesson Plans How can you start to create lesson plans for unit 1? Review the priority and supporting standards for unit 1. Review the “unwrapped” standards, big ideas and essential questions. Review the post-assessment and the performance tasks. 68

69. 1.Review performance task #4. 2.In your group, brainstorm what you would need to teach to prepare students for task #4. 3.Write these ideas on chart paper. 4.Be ready to share out. Sample list on next slide… 69

70. Sample lesson plan ideas… Students will research a planet using several different resources. They will take notes on the topology, location, life forms (if any), etc. using step-up to writing strategies and/or graphic organizers. (Task 1) Student will assemble a project/model, poster, diorama, or power point at home with family support that includes the planet elements. (Task 2) Students will write an organized report that includes the elements of the planet, and main idea, details, information, and demonstrate command of conventions of English. (Task 3) Students will give an oral presentation using a visual aid on their planet, including the elements of the planet. (Task 4) *Rubrics are provided for each Task.* 70

73. Math Units 4th Grade 73

74. Unit One – Review and Discuss Content-Specific Vocabulary Critical Areas of Focus Implications of Mathematical Practices Suggested Pacing Pre-requisite skills – possible Math Review topics How will these components enrich your instruction? 74

75. Support for Instructional Design In the Unit Organizer Vocabulary needed for the unit. Learning Objectives (COLO) Academic Vocabulary Addends Greater than > Associative property of addition Identity property of addition Commutative property of addition Inverse operations Compare Less than < Compatible numbers Millions Difference Not equal to ≠ Digit Odd Equal to = Parentheses Equation Period Estimate/ Round Regroup Even Standard form Expanded form Sum Expression Variable Fact family Word form Factor To be created at a later date 75

76. Standards for Mathematical Practice and their implications for the unit. Critical Areas of Focus derived from the State Standards Critical Areas of Focus Implications of Mathematical Practices (How are students going to use the practices within the unit) Critical Area of Focus #1 Students generalize their understanding of place value to 1,000,000, understanding the relative sizes of numbers in each place. Depending on the numbers and the context, they select and accurately apply appropriate methods to estimate or mentally calculate sums and differences. Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. Students will use visual models to aide them in making sense of larger place value quantities and persevere while constructing larger numbers for use in addition and subtraction. Reason abstractly and quantitatively. Students will recognize that the value of a digit is determined by its place. Construct viable argument and critique the reasoning of others. Students construct arguments using concrete referents, such as manipulatives and charts while participating in mathematical discussions. Students will ask questions like “How did you get that?”, “Explain your thinking”, and “Why is that true?” when solving problems. Model with mathematics. Students will use base ten blocks and manipulatives to represent different number quantities. Use appropriate tools strategically. Students will use place value charts, base ten blocks, and number lines to solve problems. Attend to precision. Students use appropriate vocabulary when discussing place value, addition, and subtraction. Look for and make use of structure. Students will discover a pattern when working with numbers and will understand the role of commas when reading and writing numbers to 1,000,000. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. Students will build upon prior knowledge of place value when assessing the reasonableness of estimates when adding and subtracting quantities. 76

78. Essential QuestionsCorresponding Big Ideas 1.How can the place value system help you add and subtract? 2. Why is it important to understand the value of a digit? 3.How are addition and subtraction related? 4.Why is estimation important in solving addition and subtraction problems? 4.NBT.2: The value of a digit is determined by its position. 4.NBT.2: Place value is a system based on groups of 10. Knowing place value makes it easier to compose and decompose numbers.. 4.OA.3: Addition and subtraction are inverse operations 4.OA.3: Estimation is a tool used to help determine the reasonableness of an answer. Essential Questions should be posted in the classroom during each unit. The Big Ideas should NOT be posted in your classroom. The learning experiences and lessons should lead the students to the Big Ideas. 78
