GOALS FOR TODAY’S SESSION Gain a better understanding the

Common Core Standards (CCS) Explore an effective approach to

analyzing the content, structure and rigor of the CCS

DEFINITION OF RIGOR Students apply basic skills and

concepts in new ways. Students understand and explain their

learning. Students synthesize current and prior

learning to demonstrate their knowledge.

Students are persistent when they confront complex tasks.

ENHANCED STUDENT PERFORMANCE EXPECTATIONS Students will respond to open-ended

questions and problems. Students will determine solutions and

responses and defend their reasoning. Students will discuss content, both

formally and informally. Students will provide evidence,

models, or explanations that reflect a deep understanding of content skills, process skills, and concepts.

“The first step in preparation is for teachers to review the CCSS and highlight the standards that they are already teaching.”

WHAT TO ANALYZE…

There are many standards

A standard analysis process can be lengthy

It is important to be selective of which standards to analyze

WHAT TO ANALYZE…We recommend the following:

1. Evaluate what is the same and what is different between your current standards and the Common Core State Standards.

2. You do not need to analyze that which is the same. You are already teaching those standards or parts of standards.

3. Analyze the standards or parts of standards that are different, or those standards or parts of standards that must be demonstrated in new or deeper ways.
