  1. Common Core State Standards Preparing All Students for College and Career Readiness

  2. We promise to prepare them to be successful in college, careers, citizenship, and the global economy

  3. The Data Shows… Trends transforming future generations 1 Economics 2 Science 3 ✓ Education 4 Technology 5 Demographics 6 Citizenship 7 Power sharing in a multi-polar world U.S. NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE COUNCIL'S 2025 PROJECT: http://www.dni.gov/nic/NIC_2025_project.html

  4. We Have to Do Better… The Public Policy Institute states that by 2025 California will not be able to sustain supply of BA graduates to replace retirees.  They will be short by over 1 million if nothing is changed. http://www.ppic.org/content/pubs/report/R_409HJR.pdf

  5. Preparing for Postsecondary Success • The Common Core Standards were released on June 2, 2010 • August 2, 2010, the State Board of Education adopted the Common Core State Standards with the California Additions

  6. Stakeholders United to Write theCollege and Career-Readiness Standards *Minnesota adopted the CCSS in ELA only Nationally 45 States + DC have Adopted the Common Core State Standards (as of May 2012)

  7. The Common Core Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help their students. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers. With American students fully prepared for the future, our communities will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy. - Common Core State Standards Initiative

  8. Common Core Standards are to be Fully Implemented in 2013-2014 The State Superintendent and the State Board of Education presented to the Governor and appropriate Legislature Committees a schedule and implementation plan for integrating the Common Core State Standards into the state educational system.

  9. What has Really Changed?

  10. The Standards Provide a Paradigm Shift for Teaching, Learning, and Assessment

  13. The Standards Provide a Paradigm Shift for Teaching, Learning, and Assessment

  14. ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS, LITERACY IN HISTORY/ SOCIAL STUDIES, SCIENCE, AND TECHNICAL SUBJECTS

  15. Spotlight on what students read: • Complexity • Range • Close analysis of texts with evidence to back up claims and conclusions • Writing to sources • Research (short projects) • Marshaling arguments • Using evidence Several Key Shifts

  16. Students in grades 11-12 typically read at Lexile levels of 940-1220L . . . Among the Lexile levels needed for entry-level jobs: • Finance:1385L • Public Safety:1285L • Information Technology: 1280L • Hospitality,Tourism:1225L

  17. The reading requirements to be an active and informed citizen: • Health Insurance Form: 1360L • Newspapers1330L • Student Loan Application:1270L • Federal Tax Form W-4:1260L

  18. MathematicsStandards

  19. Common Core Standards for Mathematics The standards for mathematics: • aim for clarity and specificity • stress conceptual understanding of key ideas • balance mathematical understanding and procedural skill • are internationally benchmarked

  20. Attributes of the CCSS: Mathematics Engage student in the content through the Mathematical Practices • Problem solving • Reasoning • Modeling • Using tools • Making arguments • Precision • Structure

  21. 7th and 8th Grade MathCalifornia Department of Education Frameworks • Much more rigorous than current standards • Requires more depth and complexity • Includes Geometry and Algebra standards • Requires compacting rather than skipping content • Focus on mastery of all standards • Multiple measures used to determine placement

  22. CDE Recommendations for Math Acceleration California Department of Education Frameworks (Acceleration Options, p.12)

  24. A Look at Some Common Core Assessment Items http://sampleitems.smarterbalanced.org/itempreview/sbac/ELA.htm

  25. ELA Grade 7 • Common Core • CST

  26. Grade 7 Mathematics • CST • Common Core

  27. Grade 7 Performance Task

  28. How can you help?English/Language Arts • Read non-fiction texts and texts that explain • Read challenging texts children want to read and can read comfortably • Read multiple texts on the same topic • Demand evidence in every day discussions and disagreements • Talk about what you and your children read • Encourage writing at home

  29. How can you help?Mathematics • Write about math • Explain how they solve math problems • Find math examples in everyday life – apply math • Let you child DO the everyday math – adding tax, tips, sales price, etc. • Memorize math facts • Practice math Provide time and support for learning the Common Core

  30. Creativity is the Currency of the 21st Century “ Creative individuals and nations are poised to prosper. The new third world will be the nations that need to import creativity. Businesses are turning to creativity like never before. It is imperative to design a learning environment in which students are creating real world products to demonstrate their understanding of the content.” ~Crocket, Jukes, Churches, 2011
