  1. Implementing Common Core and Essential Standards Modified by RCS from Summer Institute 2011

  4. HOW DID THE CCSS CONVERSATION START? • What does a student need to know and be able to do to enter when entering college or beginning a career/job? • College & Career Readiness Standards • Given the College & Career Readiness Standards, what does this trajectory look like in K-12 classrooms? • Multiple rounds of feedback and revision • States who had standards participated in developing the CCSS. • State Option to Adopt the CCSS • 42 states have adopted the CCSS • North Carolina adopted the CCSS on June 3, 2010.

  5. How does NC fit into the Big Picture

  6. Common Core State Standards North Carolina Essential Standards • English Language Arts • Mathematics • Arts Education • Career and Technical Education • English as a Second Language • Exceptional Children • Healthful Living • Instructional Technology • Science • Social Studies • World Languages North Carolina Standard Course of Study. Time Line

  7. Time Line New Essential Standards All Standards Operational in 2012-13 New Common Core

  8. THE PROMISE OF STANDARDS 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.

  9. Promoting Change through Professional Development 6/21/2011 • page 5

  10. Our Assumptions: For RCS and for Our School Student learning is the highest priority. The Professional Learning Community framework guides our work. Expertise is shared and tapped within and outside of our teams. Things aren’t always perfect. This is a safe space to network, share ideas and ask questions.

  11. Curriculum is a Complex Combination of Materials, Resources, and Actions

  12. exists and evolves within the operating culture of public schools Standards Student Achievement

  13. The North Carolina Professional Educator Standards Form the foundation of that culture

  14. Curriculum is that which: • teachers teach • students learn • the district mandates • the state requires • is expected by Parents Community Higher Education

  15. Standards Student Achievement State Level Local Level School Level NCDPI District Teachers Common Core&Essential Standards Local Curricula Instruction&Assessment

  16. Common Core State Standards North Carolina Essential Standards • English Language Arts • Mathematics • Arts Education • Career and Technical Education • English as a Second Language • Exceptional Children • Healthful Living • Instructional Technology • Science • Social Studies • World Languages North Carolina Standard Course of Study.

  17. Guidance Comes From the Standards... But the Standards Alone are Not Enough

  18. In Addition to Standards, Teachers Need Local Curriculum to Clarify District Expectations.

  19. Local Curricula Helps Teachers Define it: What is it we expect students to learn? Measure it: How will we know when they have learned it? Scaffold it: How will we respond when they don’t learn it? Extend it: How will we respond when they already know it?

  20. Components of Local Curricula • Learning Targets • Instructional Sequence • Recommended Delivery Practices • Assessment Guidance • Professional Development • Policies & Regulations

  21. (Elmore & Rothman, 1999: Mitchell, 1998; Wishnick,1989) Importance of Alignment Alignment is an even stronger predictor of student achievement on standardized tests than are socioeconomic status, gender, race, and teacher effect.

  22. Dimensions of Alignment Content Cognitive Context 42

  23. Content Does the teacher teach and test the topics listed in the curriculum?

  24. Cognitive Type Do the students get to work and think at the level the curriculum prescribes?

  25. The Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy

  26. Public Schools of North Carolina oiflState Board of Education Department of Public Instruction Context Are the parameters of the assessment reasonably similar to the parameters of the instruction?

  27. Professional Learning Communities are Guided by Four Essential Questions

  28. What is it we expect students to learn? • How will we know when they have learned it? • How will we respond when they don’t learn it? • How will we respond when they already know it? (2009) Raising the Bar and Closing the Gap: Whatever it Takes

  29. Students are most successful when teachers have a shared understanding of “it” What is it we expect students to learn? How will we know when they have learned it? How will we respond when they don’t learn it? How will we respond when they already know it? (2009) Raising the Bar and Closing the Gap: Whatever it Takes

  30. These Questions Form the Foundation of Instructional Planning
