Curriculum Mapping for the Common Core Standards

This workshop focused on the intersection of Common Core Standards (CCS) and Integrated Framework Curriculum (IFC) during I.S. 281’s Spring Conference on May 18, 2011. Participants engaged in discussions about curriculum mapping across 7th and 8th grade ELA to achieve uniformity, addressing initial concerns and misconceptions about CCS implementation. Through collaborative planning and resource development, the workshop emphasized the importance of understanding both CCS requirements and the need for uniform curriculum. Future meeting plans and strategies for ongoing alignment were also explored.

  3. What Common Core Standards?

  4. At First … Mostly Fear & Denial • 2009-2010 – 7th and 8th Grade ELA curriculum mapping for uniformity • Summer 2010 CCS workshops • Straw grab materials reaction • “We’ve got until 2014…”

  5. Then … The Realizations: • Ordering and “dumping” of materials would not be enough • The extent of the paradigm shift • The amount of work involved

  6. Followed by Panic

  7. … and Then More Common Core Workshops and Denial

  8. The Fall Saturday Workshop • Consider the “tasks” • We’ve known this all along • Fixing the task is not enough • “Fixed” tasks should inform instruction

  9. The 6th Grade ELA Work Begins(With CCS still off in the distance, we work hard to make some missteps) • Lead teacher meetings to verbalize and plan to address dissatisfaction • Development of ELA Survey • Development of Resources Used survey

  10. The Epiphany • Uniformity of curriculum will not necessarily equal CCS implementation • Goal Merging: As long as we want both uniformity and CCS, why not address both issues at once?

  11. The Sites • Common Core • A curriculum mapping site: http://commoncore.org/maps/index.php/maps/grades/ • We may not have to completely re-invent the wheel after all

  12. Think, Turn and Talk Directions • Check all that apply on the Think Turn & Talk handout • Be sure to provide brief explanations where necessary • Turn to a neighbor and talk it out

  13. Site Format • Essential Question and Overview • Focus Standards • Student Objectives • Suggested Works • Sample Activities and Assessments • Additional Resources

  14. A Plan … • Structured Explorations • Resource lists for the units/FAMIS • Folders of printable resources • Two meetings per week to hammer it out

  15. In the Future • Continue work on 6th Grade unit plans • Re-do 6th Grade book room • Same general plan for 7th Grade next year • 8th Grade the year after that

  16. Please take a few moments to evaluate this workshop.
