  1. A Deeper Understanding of the Common Core Integrated Math Transition with Implications for Scheduling

  2. Introductions -- Timecards -- Purpose

  3. Introductions -- Timecards -- Purpose Math Ambassadors • PPT • Resource Booklet • On Website Timecards • Math Teachers • Counselors • To Beth upon departure

  4. Background and Theory Introductions -- Timecards -- Purpose • Implementation Tools • Scenarios • Q and A Jot down questions on index cards Work through scenarios Plenty of time at end for Q and A

  5. It’s been a long road…. Introductions -- Timecards -- Purpose • Cluster Presentations • Meetings with Stakeholders • Parents • Trustees • Executive Leadership • Advisory Committees • UC, CSU and SDCCD • Task Forces • MS and HS Principal Focus Groups • Textbook Adoptions • Teacher PD • PLC Support • Placement Test Construction

  6. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content Moving to Common Core

  7. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content Where do we put all the boxes (standards)?

  8. There are 2 hallways Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content

  9. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content Algebra ≠ Integrated Math I 8th Grade Math Algebra Algebra Integrated Math II Integrated Math I

  10. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content * Advanced—added content

  11. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content Geometry ≠ Integrated Math II 7th and 8th Grade Math Geometry Geometry Integrated Math II Integrated Math I

  12. Myth and Reality –Rigor and Content * Advanced—added content

  13. Best Fit Algorithm Position students for success: Best Fit: Thoughtful course placement Advanced/accelerated options “Advanced” – redefined…. Additional Content Transition: Potential gaps – modified instruction Power Up option – support Monitor student progress

  14. 2014-15 2015-16 2013-14 2016-17 2017-18 Build on content Integrated I Integrated II Integrated III Pre-Calculus/ Stats Best Fit Algorithm Integrated I + AdvPkg 1 • Integrated II + • AdvPkg2 • Integrated III • + • AdvPkg3 Calculus AP Calculus AP Build on content; added content • Alg 1 • or • AdvAlg Skip Content (Integrated I) Integrated II Integrated III Pre-Calculus Calculus AP Calculus AP Calculus Calculus B Adv.

  15. Shifts in Mathematics • Algebra/ • Intermediate Algebra Integrated Math integrates common core standards. • Common Core algebra standards exceed previous CA standards. • Algebra content standards are distributed: 8th Grade Math • Integrated Math • Advanced • Geometry • Probability Integrated Math II Algebra Integrated Math I • Precalculus* * Advanced – added content

  16. Placement Recommendations --Transition Year 2014-15 Entering 9th Grade Entering 10th Grade

  17. Best Fit Algorithm What should every Middle School offer? Common Core 6th Common Core 7th Common Core 8th Accelerated 6th Accelerated 7th Integrated Math I -- Advanced

  18. Best Fit Algorithm What should every High School offer? Integrated Math I Integrated Math I -- Advanced Integrated Math II Integrated Math II -- Advanced Intermediate Algebra Precalculus Calculus (Other high level math courses) Power Up for Integrated Math

  19. FAQ Review • What are the Common Core State Standards? • Why is the grade 6-12 math course and sequence changing? • What will the new course sequence look like in Middle School? What if my child is ready for more advanced math? • What will the new course sequence look like in high school? What does the advanced sequence look like in high school? • How are we preparing teachers for these changes? • …

  20. Pathways and Programming in 2015-2016 • Unifying Algebra and Geometry • Intermediate Algebra • Advanced Intermediate Algebra Courses disappearing in 2014-2015 • Math 6 and Math 7 • Pre-Algebra 7 and Advanced Pre-Algebra • Algebra and Algebra Explorations • Geometry and Advanced Geometry

  21. Programming Issues Pathways and Programming • Awarding of honors points for Integrated III ADV • Policy for Suppression • Importance of Summer School for grade replacement • Absence of Integrated I ADV and II ADV on the “a-g” course list temporarily

  22. Resources for Counselors and Administrators Resources • Mathematics Pathways to the Common Core with Indicators • Course Numbers • Credentialing Needs • Counselor Early Return • HS – 4 days proposed • MS – 1 day proposed • Placement Guides 8, 9, 10

  23. Communications for Parents • Three Parent Letters • Current 5th, 6th, 7th (sent by 14-15 receiving school) • Incoming 9th • Incoming 10th • Transfer to your letterhead • Mailed or posted • Translated versions on Math Department Website • Clearly outline multiple indicators for placement • Heavy emphasis on Summer School in letter for current 9th (Applications accepted until classes are full)

  24. “Power Up for Integrated Math” – HS Elective

  25. Staff Development High School Materials: CME Integrated Math I, II, III (includes advanced content) Professional Development • Summer • Next Year • PLC—joint meetings • Middle School • Materials: pending Board approval, June 2014 • Professional Development • Summer • Next Year • PLC—joint meetings

  26. Next Steps -- Scenarios -- Q and A
