  2. Teaching is the Core A video produced by the New York State Education Department http://www.engageny.org/resource/teaching-is-the-core

  3. How will the Common Core Standards be different? • Includes rigorous content and application of • knowledge through higher-order thinking skills • Performance-based collaborative activities and assessments • Integrated literacy across content areas including Science and Social Studies • Stronger emphasis on informational text, research and media skills

  4. Shifts in ELA Common Core Standards: • Staircase of complexity design, the standards build upon each other • A combination of literary and informational texts • Integration of Social Science and Science content knowledge • 3 types of writing: Informative/Explanatory, Narrative, and Opinion/Persuasive taught K-12 • Emphasis on academic vocabulary

  5. ELA Standards Organization • Reading for Literature (10 standards) • Reading for Informational Text (10 standards) • Foundation (4 standards – K-5 only) • Writing (10 standards) • Language (6 standards) • Speaking and Listening (6 standards)

  6. Text Complexity • Ensure your child is reading in the appropriate Lexile range • Ensure they read a balance of fiction and non-fiction texts • Appropriate Reading Lists by grade level: • http://www.corestandards.org/assets/Appendix_B.pdf • http://commoncore.scholastic.com/teachers/books/non-fiction

  7. Focus-narrow and deepen the scope • Coherence connecting across grade levels • Fluency-speed and accuracy • Deep understanding • Application of concepts • Dual Intensity -practice and understand Shifts in Common Core Math

  8. There are two sets of standards in math: • Math Domain Standards by grade level • K-12 Mathematical Practice Standards

  9. Counting and Cardinality (K only) • Operations in Algebraic Thinking • Number and Operations in Base Ten • Measurement and Data • Geometry • Number and Operations-Fractions (grades 3-5) Math Domain Standards

  10. Math Resources for Families • Multiflyer is a space-age adventure where you accomplish missions and explore the galaxy by knowing your multiplication facts. The direct link to this game is: www.brainormous.com/online/loader_multiflyer.html. • www.figurethis.org. Created by the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics, this site helps families enjoy mathematics outside school through a series of fun and engaging challenges. • www.mathplayground.com. Math Playground provide resources by grade level and topis, including interactive resources for model drawing.

  11. New Common Core Assessments Who is creating them? SMARTER-Balanced Assessment Consortium Who else is using these tests? Currently 24 states What is the purpose? To develop a comprehensive and innovative assessment system for grades 3-8 and grade 11 in English Language Arts and Mathematics aligned to the Common Core Standards so that students leave high school prepared for post secondary success in college or a career. What will happen to CSTs? These tests will replace CST, CMA, and STS. Hedenkamp students will take both the language arts and math CAL-MAPP field tests in grades 3-6 in the spring.

  12. Summative assessments aligned to College and Career Readiness Standards Computer adaptive Administered during last 12 weeks of school year Results will show achievement and growth Question types: 1. Selected Response 2. Constructed Response 3. Extended Response 4. Performance –Based Tasks 5. Technology-Enhanced 6. Technology-Enabled How will the MAPP tests be different than the CST?

  13. Grade 3 ELA Reading and Writing Performance-Based Assessment Part 1 includes reading an article and watching a video then providing a constructed response to three questions to demonstrate comprehension

  14. Part 2: Write an Opinion Essay using evidence from the video and article to support their opinion on the topic. Rubric for proficient

  15. Grade 5 Math Performance Task Event Takes place over several days Part 1

  16. Grade 5 Math Performance Task Part 2

  17. Grade 5 Math Performance Task Part 3

  18. Grade 5 Math Performance Task Part 4

  19. Grade 5 Math Performance Task Part 5

  20. How can parents help support children with the ELA Common Core shifts? • Provide more challenging texts and provide texts they WANT to read and can read comfortably • Know what is grade level appropriate • Read challenging text with them • Show that challenging text is worth unpacking • Read multiple books about the same topic • Let your kids see you reading • Talk to your children; Read to your children; Listen to your children; Sing with your children; Make up silly rhymes and word games with your children

  21. How can parents help support children with the Math Common Core shifts? • Notice whether your child REALLY knows why the answer is what it is • Advocate for the TIME your child needs to learn key math • Provide TIME for your child to work hard with math at home • Get smarter in the math your child needs to know • www.learnzillion.com • www.engageny.org
