Goals For Today • Locate your standards and support tools • Understand how to read the new standards in various subject areas • Understand the connection between ELA standards and all content areas • Begin the process of unpacking your subject area • Access resources available to you. • Conduct an inventory of what you will need for next year.
Locating New Standards • 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/
Begin Specific Content Area Unpacking Read the first paragraph of Essential Standards & the description for your grade • Group 1: Write a summary of what is expected: • - of you? • -of your students? • Group 2: Make a bulleted list of important concepts or phrases. • Group 3: What changes are required in your instruction.
What will Science Instruction Look Like Next Year? • Challenges? • Advantages?
Focus on Clarifying Objectives! What will students be able to: • Understand • Know • Do Highlight/ List Action verbs How would the clarifying objectives be assessed?
ELA- 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. • Anchor Standards, Reading informational texts, Writing

Implementation Inventory • What processes and strategies will be used to master the learning (Essential Processes)? • What content knowledge will I need to implement the new essential standards next year? • What training will I need? • What resources will I need? • What material support will I need? • What other support will I need from School/District Administration/Support Staff?
