What to Expect 2013-2014 • The 2013-14 school year is the final year to prepare for the PARCC assessment . • Grades K-2: • Full implementation of the CCSSM in and the TNCore Focus Standards for K-2 have been released and are posted with the 3-8 Focus Standards. • The SAT 10 will not be revised or narrowed for the 2013-14 school year due to the fact that modifications to the assessment would require major revisions to test design, which would significantly impact development timeline, budget, and teacher evaluation. • Grades 3-8: • Tennessee’s transition to the CCSSM will continue with grades 3-8 in the 2013-2014 school year. Teachers will still teach the current TDP standards (minus the SPI’s to be dropped from the TCAP). In addition, teachers will be teaching the TNCore Focus Standards. • TCAP Achievement tests in math: 3-8 will be narrowed by an additional 5-10 percent in most grades • In grades 3-8, CRA materials (including items, scoring guides and student work) will be posted in September and January. • In grades 3-8, the CRA design will be modified slightly to more closely mimic PARCC. Instead of four items, the CRA will include three items and an additional fluency section assessing student speed and accuracy with the fluency standards for their grade level. • Use of calculators will be permitted on Constructed Response items but calculators will not be permitted on the fluency section (otherwise, the calculator policy on the TCAP Achievement and EOCs will not change in 2013-14). Common Core State Standards
What to Expect 2013-2014 • Grades 9-12: • As part of our transition to Common Core, we will be narrowing the EOCs for 2013-14 - Algebra I (10 percent) and Algebra II (25 percent). Focus Clusters have been identified for Algebra I, Geometry, and Algebra II. • The 2013-14 administration of the Constructed Response Assessment (CRA) will assess standards in the TNCore Focus Clusters so teachers can understand the rigor and changes in instructional practice these new standards. There will be two state administrations of the CRA in October and February. • In high school, the CRA will have four CRA items and no fluency section. • All CRA materials (including items, scoring guides and student work for both the October and February administrations) will be released in September to allow for use on block schedulesand will be located at www.tncore.org Common Core State Standards

Conceptual understanding vs. Procedures • Embed mathematical practices into lessons • Use supporting links and documents from the Resources Toolbox • Work on fluency daily • Use math manipulatives ! • Literature Links are a great way to incorporate literacy into math (K-8) Reminders . . . . . .
