  3. We have a choice. We can simply defend what we have…or create what we need. Sixteen Trends Their Profound Impact on Our Future by Gary Marx

  4. The Common Core State Standards Initiative • Beginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics standards. • The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a state-led effort coordinated by the • National Governors Association (NGA) and the • Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO). • www.corestandards.org

  5. Why Common Core Standards • Preparation: The standards are college- and career-ready. They will help prepare students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in education and training after high school. • Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked. Common standards will help ensure our students are globally competitive. • Equity: Expectations are consistent for all – and not dependent on a student’s zip code. • Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear. Clearer standards help students (and parents and teachers) understand what is expected of them. • Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools, professional development, common assessments and other materials.

  6. Thomas Fordham InstituteGPS and CCSS in 2010 Georgia: Grade A- Clarity and Specificity 3/3 Content and Rigor 6/7 Total GPS Score 9/10 Georgia is one of eight states receiving at least 9/10 points. CCSS: Grade A- Clarity and Specificity 2/3 Content and Rigor 7/7 Total CCSS Score 9/10

  7. Why are the Common Core State Standards for English language arts and mathematics right for Georgia? • Previous work with the GPS has prepared Georgia for the implementation of the CCGPS. • Prior teacher and administrator GPS training ensures a smooth transition. • Although some content may be in different grade levels in CCSS, nearly all of the ELA and mathematics standards are addressed. • CCSS expectations are consistent with a single/high-rigor diploma requirement for all students.

  8. K- High School CCGPS Subjects • English Language Arts (ELA) • Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects • Mathematics

  9. Common Core State Standards inEnglish Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards • Overarching standards for each strand that are further defined by grade-specific standards Grade-Level Standards in English Language Arts (CCGPS) • K-8, grade-by-grade • 9-10 and 11-12 grade bands for high school • Four strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects • Standards are embedded at grades K-5 • Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8, 9-10, and 11-12

  10. College and Career Readiness Standards and Common Core State Standards • The College and Career Readiness Standards were written first and define the expectations for all students upon graduation from high school. • The K-12 grade-specific standards define end-of-year expectations and a cumulative progression designed to enable students to meet college and career readiness expectations no later than the end of high school. • Each Common Core State Standard is aligned to a college and career readiness standard.

  11. College and Career Readiness Standards(CCR) These 32 standards “anchor” the document and define general, cross-disciplinary literacy expectations that must be met for students to be prepared to enter college and workforce training programs ready to succeed. (10 Reading, 10 Writing, 6 Speaking & Listening, and 6 Language)

  12. Common Core for Mathematics Standards for Mathematical Content • K-8 grade-by-grade standards organized by domain • 9-12 high school standards organized by conceptual categories Standards for Mathematical Practice • Describe mathematical “habits of mind” • Offer standards for mathematical proficiency: reasoning, problem solving, modeling, decision making, and engagement • Connect with content standards in each grade

  13. K- 8 Mathematics Standards • The K-5 standards provide students with a solid foundation in whole numbers, addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions and decimals. • The 6-8 standards describe robust learning in geometry, algebra, and probability and statistics. • Modeled after the focus of standards from high-performing nations, the standards for grades 7 and 8 include significant algebra and geometry content. • Students who have completed 7th grade and mastered the content and skills will be prepared for algebra in 8th grade or after.

  14. High School Mathematics Standards • Call on students to practice applying mathematical ways of thinking to real world issues and challenges • Require students to develop a depth of understanding and ability to apply mathematics to novel situations, as college students and employees regularly are called to do • Emphasize mathematical modeling, the use of mathematics and statistics to analyze empirical situations, understand them better, and improve decisions • Identify the mathematics that all students should study in order to be college and career ready.

  15. Common Core Georgia Performance Standards (CCGPS) Professional Learning and Implementation Timeline September 21, 2011 State-wide CCGPS meeting for educators and stakeholders provided by State School 3:00-4:00pm Superintendent, Dr. John Barge, and GaDOE staff via Georgia Public Broadcasting   Use the following link to access the session and recording: gpb.org/education/common-core August – Dec. 2011 Technical Assistance, Webinars, Transition Documents, Resource Development January – March 2012 K-12 grade by grade ELA and Mathematics teacher professional learning with live/interactive streaming via Georgia Public Broadcasting Sessions will be recorded. To access all of the CCGPS 2011-2012 Live Streamed Professional Learning sessions and recordings use the following link: gpb.org/education/common-core Ongoing professional learning and technical support will be provided for local districts/schools via RESA Mathematics Mentors and ELA Specialists and GaDOE staff 2012-2013 Year 1 Implementation/Transition 2013-2014 Year 2 Implementation; Field Test 2014-2015 Year 3 Implementation and Common Assessment Contacts: CCGPS Coordinator - Jan Wyche (jwyche@doe.k12.ga.us) ELA Program Coordinator - Kim Jeffcoat (kjeffcoat@doe.k12.ga.us) Mathematics Program Coordinator - Sandi Woodall (swoodall@doe.k12.ga.us)

  16. Common Core Assessment • Georgia is a governing state within the Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC), a consortium of 24 states focused on building a common assessment based on the Common Core. • Implementation is planned for the 2014-2015 SY

  17. Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) Governing Board States Participating States

  18. Create High Quality Assessments • Summative Assessment Components: • Performance-Based Assessment (PBA) administered as close to the end of the school year as possible. The ELA/literacy PBA will focus on writing effectively when analyzing text. The mathematics PBA will focus on applying skills, concepts, and understandings to solve multi-step problems requiring abstract reasoning, precision, perseverance, and strategic use of tools • End-of-Year Assessment (EOY) administered after approx. 90% of the school year. The ELA/literacy EOY will focus on reading comprehension. The math EOY will be comprised of innovative, machine-scorable items • Formative Assessment Components: • Early Assessment designed to be an indicator of student knowledge and skills so that instruction, supports and professional development can be tailored to meet student needs • Mid-Year Assessment comprised of performance-based items and tasks, with an emphasis on hard-to-measure standards. After study, individual states may consider including as a summative component

  19. Create High-Quality Assessments Flexible • Mid-Year Assessment • Performance-based • Emphasis on hard to measure standards • Potentially summative • End-of-Year • Assessment • Innovative, computer-based items • Performance-Based • Assessment (PBA) • Extended tasks • Applications of concepts and skills • Early Assessment • Early indicator of student knowledge and skills to inform instruction, supports, and PD • ELA/Literacy • Speaking • Listening Summative assessment for accountability Formative assessment
