  1. Teacher Leadership Council October 13, 2011 Jacksonville High School

  2. Thank You • For your time and expertise in the areas of curriculum and instruction • For helping OCS take the next steps in implementing the Common Core and Essential Standards • For developing Curriculum Division Documents and Benchmarks

  3. Goals For Today • Be able to locate your standards and support tools • Understand how the standards are written and their characteristics • Begin the process of unpacking science standards and their relationship to the K-5 Essential Standards. • Understand the purpose of Curriculum Division Documents and what they look like. • Understand the Next Steps in the Curriculum Division Document/Benchmarking Process

  4. “Unpacking” What does it mean to “Unpack”? How can we successfully “Unpack” our new Essential Standards?

  5. Locating New Standards • science-unpacked Wiki • http://science-unpacked.wikispaces.com/ • Rubicon Atlas (Reference Tab): • www.onslowcounty.rubiconatlas.org • NC Department of Public Instruction • Essential Standards: http://www.ncpublicschools.org/acre/standards/new-standards/ • Common Core Standards: http://www.ncpublicschools.org/acre/standards/common-core/ • Extended Content Standards: http://www.ncpublicschools.org/acre/standards/extended/

  6. Essential Standards Support Tools

  7. Common Core Support Tools

  8. Standards, Curriculum, & Instruction

  9. Understanding the Standards: Breaking the Code(s) • ELA Standard • Math Standard • Science Standard • SS Standard • Healthful Living Standard • Arts Standard • World Languages Standard A standard naming format exists within each area.

  10. Reading the StandardsStandard Format • Grade Level/Course . Strand . Standard . Clarifying Objective • Understanding the Strand in the naming • Example: • Social Studies 3.H.1.1 • Third Grade . History . Standard 1 . Clarifying Objective 1 • Explain key historical events that occurred in the local community and regions over time. • Science Bio.1.2.3 • Biology . Structures and Functions (1) . Standard 2 . Clarifying Objective 3 • Explain how specific cell adaptations help cells survive in particularenvironments (focus on unicellularorganisms).

  11. In Your School, Who is Responsible? • …for teaching Reading? • …for teaching Writing? • …for teaching Speaking and Listening? • …for teaching Language? • …for teaching Science? • …for teaching other Technical Subjects?

  12. Shared responsibility for students’ literacy development • The Standards insist that instruction in reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language be a shared responsibility within the school. • The K–5 standards include expectations for reading, writing, speaking, listening, and language applicable to a range of subjects, including but not limited to ELA. • The grades 6–12 standards are divided into two sections, one for ELA and the other for history/social studies, science, and technical subjects. • This division reflects the unique, time-honored place of ELA teachers in developing students’ literacy skills while at the same time recognizing that teachers in other areas must have a role in this development as well.

  13. Comprehensive ELA IntroGrades K-5 Grades 6-8Grades 9-10Grades 11-12

  14. ELA and Informational Text

  15. Analyzing the Standards • Go to www.science-unpacked.wikispaces.com • Join the Wiki • Locate your grade and open your grade level on the left of the page and review your unpacking document and crosswalks. • Go to the discussion board at the top of the page and answer the questions. Respond to at least two other’s posts.

  16. Curriculum Division Documents • Why are we building these “Division Documents”? • What are CDDs? • Where can the existing documents be found?http://science-unpacked.wikispaces.com/TEACHER+LEADER+COUNCIL • Discussions: • How should the CDDs be divided– 6, 9, 18 weeks? • How often should benchmark testing be conducted?

  17. Curriculum Division Document Code

  18. Moving Forward • We are in a year of planning conceptually (CIA) • As we prepare to implement new standards, we will work together to: • Learn the standards • Answer • What will students understand (Enduring Understandings)? • What will students know (Essential Concepts)? • What will students be able to do (Assessment)? • How will students show that they have learned (Assessment)? • What processes and strategies will be used to master the learning (Essential Processes)? • What materials and resources do I have or will I need? (Resources)

  19. Next Steps • Share today’s session with grade level/school leaders • Discuss and solicit input from colleagues on the following: • How should the “Standards Division Documents” be divided? (6, 9, 18 weeks) • How often should benchmarking be conducted? (6, 9, 18 weeks) • Share input from colleagues at the January 2012 TLC.

  20. Between Session Activity • Before we meet again in January, go to http://science-unpacked.wikispaces.com/ Participate in both the grade level and Teacher Leader Council Discussions.

  21. My Role as a Teacher Leader • Taking information back to your school staff • Develop a plan with your Principal for rolling information out to your staff • Talk to other teachers who have been in different Unpacking and TLC Sessions • Continue reading, learning, and asking questions
