Expected Outcomes…As a result of the CCSS session,
participants will:
understand the ELA Common Core State Standards and how they prepare students to be college and career ready.
understand the critical components – Text Complexity and Student Engagement.
have identified current resources and processes to bridge the gap through the CCSS transition.

Directions for making a Response Journal
1. Fold three sheets of paper horizontally. Cut 1” slits at the top and bottom.
2. Fold the colored sheet horizontally and cut the “guts” out of the fold leaving 1” at the top and bottom.
3. Fold the colored sheet vertically and slide in the opening of the three sheets.
4. Open the colored sheet and fit into the slits on the top and bottom.
WOW! A Response Journal!Great project for student writing activities!

Welcome & Introduction Meet and Greet – A Pre Reading Strategy:
Read your word or phrase Share your word or phrase with at least 3 people Try to remember the words that you hear Return to your table and share with the group your
word or phrase Your group will make predictions as to how they all
fit together One person from the group will share to the large
group

•The Common Core State Standards, also called the Core Academic Standards in Missouri, define what students should know and be able to do at every grade level in grades K-12.
•The standards are more rigorous than the previous standards. The focus of the standards closes the gap between high school and college/ career readiness. In addition, the standards will require less rote memorization and more concepts applicable to real-world problem solving.
Common Core Defined:
![Page 10: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
We know that . . .
CCSS is a charge by states to ensure that all students are college and career ready by graduation.
Standards are set requirements for ELA and Literacy in Social Studies/History, Science, Math and Tech subjects
Standards lay out a vision of what it means to be a literate person in the twenty-first century.

CCSS Background
Voluntary, state – led effort; states, territories and D.C.
States committed to developing a Common Core of State Standards for proficiency in ELA and Math for grades K-12
Governor Nixon signed Missouri in August 2009
MO State Board of Education adopted the Standards June 15, 2010

What is not covered by the Standards?1. They do not enumerate all or even most of the
content that students should learn.2. They do not describe all that can or should be
taught.3. They do not define the nature of advanced work for
students that meet standards prior to graduation.4. They do not define particular intervention methods
or materials to support varied student levels of performance.
5. They do not outline specific range of support for ELL and special needs students.
6. They do not cover every relatable component for college and career readiness preparedness.

The Staircase of Complexity
ELA Shift #3
![Page 24: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
“steady decline—over time, across grades, and substantiated by several sources—in the difficulty and likely also the sophistication of content of the texts students have been asked to read in school since 1962”
(Common Core Initiative, 2010)
Text Complexity Concerns
![Page 25: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Text-Based Answers Students have rich and rigorous conversations
which are dependent on a common text. Teachers insist that classroom experiences
stay deeply connected to the text on the page and that students develop habits for making evidentiary arguments.
ELA Shift #4
![Page 26: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Writing From Sources Writing needs to emphasize use of evidence
to inform or make an argument rather than the personal narrative and other forms of decontextualized prompts.
ELA Shift #5
![Page 27: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Academic Vocabulary By “focusing strategically on comprehension
of pivotal and commonly found words (such as ‘discourse,’ ‘generation,’ ‘theory,’ and ‘principled’) and less on esoteric literary terms (such as ‘onomatopoeia’ or ‘homonym’), teachers constantly build students’ ability to access more complex texts across the content areas.”
ELA Shift #6
![Page 28: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

ive2. Qualitative measures – levels of meaning,
structure, language conventionality and clarity, and knowledge demands often best measured by an attentive human reader.
Quantitative
1. Quantitative measures – readability and other scores of text complexity often best measured by computer software.
Reader and Task
3. Reader and Task considerations – background knowledge of reader, motivation, interests, and complexity generated by tasks assigned often best made by educators employing their professional judgment.

If not Engagement, then what?
“Reading is something that one gets better at with practice. It is not surprising, then, that for children to become better readers, they must read for long stretches of time, with just-right material, joyfully engaged in their reading (Allington 2000; Calkins 2000; Serravallo and Goldberg 2007). Without engagement during reading, this ‘time spent reading’ doesn’t count. As responsible reading teachers, it is important to be vigilant when it comes to our students’ engagement and to offer them strategies and techniques to help them stay motivated and engaged while reading (Guthrie and Wigfield 1997).”
![Page 67: Common Core State Standards K-5 November 26, 2012 1](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062421/56649f465503460f94c6822f/html5/thumbnails/67.jpg)
CCSS calls for us to “markedly increase the opportunity for regular independent reading of texts that appeal to students’ interests to develop both their knowledge and joy in reading.”

Students Who Are Behind
Far too often, students who have fallen behind are given only less complex texts rather than the support they need to read texts at the appropriate level of complexity. Complex text is a rich repository to which all readers need access, although some students will need more scaffolding to do so.

Qualitative Quantitative

Engagement Inventory-How many minutes can a child stay engaged with a book?Book Log-How many pages is the child reading per minute?-How many books does the child read per week?-How much time is spent reading at home versus reading at school?

Reading Interest Inventory Administered at the beginning of the year and
repeated periodically throughout the year Make sure the students answer honestly without
penalty Constructed response inventories will give you a
deeper understanding of each student Results of inventory will allow teacher to:
Pull small groups to guide students (book tastes, reading habits, student attitudes, who each student is a reader, etc.)
Form groups/partners/book clubs Modify unit plans for the year (including read aloud
choices) Reorganize classroom library

Without Engagement, We’ve Got Nothing: Helping Students Want to Read, cont. Assessing for engagement can be both qualitative
and quantitative. Certain behaviors are observable when it comes to determining whether a child is engaged or not: giggling at the funny part, keeping eyes on the book, turning pages at an acceptable pace. There are also measures, though, that help quantify how fully a child is engaged. We can look at the number of pages students read per reading workshop period and the number of books they read acress the course of a week. Engagement inventories, book logs, and reading interest inventories provide both quantitive and qualitative data to help us plan for individuals and small groups. (Guthrie and Wigfield 1997).”
