  1. Common Core Standards Student Engagement Conference October 7, 2011

  2. Three aspects

  3. Standards • Developed for college and career readiness • Governors Association • Chief State School Officers • College and career back to kindergarten • See website www.corestandards.org

  4. Criteria for Standards • Fewer, clearer, and higher • Aligned with college and work expectations • Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills • Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards • Internationally benchmarked, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society • Based on evidence and research

  5. Standards • Challenges in ELA • Reading • Shifting balance of literary and informational text • Elementary – 50/50 • Middle – 45/55 • High – 30/70 • Intentional curricular content integration • Increased text complexity

  6. Standards • Challenges in ELA • Writing • Increased emphasis on argument and informative/explanatory writing • Writing includes textual references and citations

  7. Standards • Challenges in mathematics • Movement of standards to different grades • Rigor • Addition of new concepts not in current standards (especially Algebra I)

  8. Instruction • Professional development for teachers • Teacher input in curriculum map changes • Review of formative assessments

  9. Instruction • State support limited • Collaborative plan with other York County districts and Lancaster • Principal input into how and when

  10. Standards • 2008 ELA Standard 8-1.2 • Explain the effect of point of view on a given literary text. • Sample question How does the point of view impact the reader? A. The events described are more personal. B. The details are more vividly described. C. The generations are gradually revealed. D. The meaning of patriotism becomes clear.

  11. Standards • Common Core State Standards RL8.6 Analyze how differences in the points of view of the characters and the audience or reader (e.g., created through the use of dramatic irony) create such effects as suspense or humor.

  12. Assessment • Sample question Explain how the first person point of view in “Compassion and the World” influences the reader’s impression of the author. Use evidence from the passage to support your response.

  13. Standards • 2007 Mathematics standard 7-5.2 • Apply strategies and formulas to determine the surface area and volume of three-dimensional shapes, prism, pyramid, and cylinder. • Sample question given a drawing • What is the approximate surface area of the cylinder?

  14. Assessment • Sample question • 5cm diameter • 9cm height • What is the approximate surface area of the cylinder? A. 141.3 cm2 B.219.8 cm2 C. 298.3 cm2 D. 706.5 cm2

  15. Standards • Common Core State Standards • 7.G.4 Know the formulas for the area and circumference of a circle and use them to solve problems; give an informal derivation of the relationship between the circumference and area of a circle. • 7.G.6 Solve real-world and mathematical problems involving area, volume and surface area of two-and three-dimensional objects composed of triangles, quadrilaterals, polygons, cubes, and right prisms.

  16. Assessment • Sample question • You have been asked to design a sports bag. The length of the bag must be 60 cm. The bag will have circular ends 25 cm in diameter. The main body of the bag will be made from 3 pieces of material; a piece for the curved body, and the two circular end pieces. Each piece will need to have an extra 2 cm all around it for a seam, so that the pieces may be stitched together.

  17. Assessment 1. Make a sketch of the pieces you will need to cut out for the body of the bag. Your sketch does not have to be to scale. On your sketch, show all the measurements you will need. 2. You are going to make one of these bags from a roll of cloth 1 meter wide. What is the shortest length that you need to cut from the roll for the bag? 3. Describe, using words and sketches, how you arrive at your answer.

  18. Assessment • State has four options for a new assessment • SMARTER Balanced Assessment Consortium • PARCC Assessment Consortium • Off-the-shelf assessment • ACT (Explore, PLAN, ACT) • SAT (Readistep, PSAT, SAT) • Home grown assessment

  19. Assessment • Study group working on pros and cons of each • Presented to state board November 10, 2011
