  1. Parent Information Common Core State Standards

  2. CNUSD’s Transition to the Common Core • CNUSD Transition to CCSS Video

  3. Common Core Standards are a coherent progression of learning expectations in English language arts and mathematics. 2. Designed to prepare K–12 students for college and career success. 3. They are consistent from state to state in their coverage and level of rigor. What are the Common Core State Standards?

  4. How were the standards developed? • Partnership of the Council of Chief State School Officers and the National Governors Association • Input from parents, teachers, school administrators, and experts from across the country • Developed in the following areas: • English language arts and literacy in history/social studies, science, and technical subjects • Standards for mathematical practice and mathematical content • Were adopted by California State Department of education on August 2nd, 2010.

  5. The Common Core State Standards: • Are aligned with college and work expectations; • Are clear, understandable, and consistent; • Are rigorous in both content and application of knowledge through high-order skills; • Are built on strengths and lessons of current state standards; • Are informed by other top-performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in a global economy and society.

  6. How will the standards be assessed? • SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) • Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) • State of California has chosen SBAC to provide yearly state assessments • Assessments will be in grades 3rd – 8th & 11th Grade

  7. English Language Arts ‘Shifts’ Shift 1: Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction Shift 2: Reading, writing , and speaking grounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational Shift 3: Regular practice with complex text and its academic language

  8. Mathematical ‘Shifts’ • Shift 1: Focus From coverage to mastery Focus and deepen instruction • Shift 2: Coherence Think across grades, and link to major topics within grades • Shift 3: Rigor Pursue conceptual understanding, procedural skill and fluency, and application with equal intensity

  9. Standards for Mathematical Practice • Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. • Reason abstractly and quantitatively. • Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Model with mathematics. • Use appropriate tools strategically. • Attend to precision. • Look for and make use of structure. • Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

  10. Math Course Sequences Beginning 2013-14 School Year Math 8 Accelerated Will Replace Algebra Beginning 2014-15 School Year

  11. When will the CCSS be implemented? Corona Norco Unified School District is utilizing the following three steps: Awareness Transition Implementation

  12. Curriculum Development • Pacing guides • Materials and support docs • Sample lessons • Assessments • Instructional Methodology Understand the “Why” Get into the Standards and Supporting Documents Understand the “shifts” 2012-2013 2013-2014 CNUSD CCSS Plan 2014-2015 Practice Refinement

  13. CCSS and Parents 1. What are the benefits of CCSS to parents? 2. What can parents do to prepare for CCSS? 3. What are some Frequently Asked Questions about CCSS? Please refer to the following resources to answer these questions: a. The District Brochure b. District Website - http://www.cnusd.k12.ca.us/commoncore
