Why the Change to CCSS? www.ELATestPrep.com
Why the Change to CCSS? An example of how multiple-choice assessments have undermined quality math instruction: 39 8,307 • 39 • 213 Students can solve this • 432 without knowing the • 621 division algorithm! www.ELATestPrep.com
Why the Change to CCSS? Multiply the last digit of each answer choice by the last digit of the divisor. The correct answer MUST have the same last digit as the dividend. 39 8,307 • 39 (9x9 = 81) • 213 (3x9 = 27) • 432(2x9 = 18) • 621(1x9 = 9) www.ELATestPrep.com

Agenda/Purpose • Become educated about CCSS and understand implications for change to assessment, standards, curriculum, and instruction in the area of mathematics • 6 Instructional Shifts for Mathematics • Standards for Mathematical Practice • How SBAC will change the nature of assessment • Review Depth of Knowledge (DOK) • Structure of CCSS for Mathematics • How to move forward/next steps www.ELATestPrep.com
The 3 Gears of Common Core www.ELATestPrep.com
Highest Quality Mathematics Program Components Resources Tiered Interventions Proven Teaching Strategies SBAC & Common Core Standards Standards for Mathematical Practice 6 Instructional Shifts www.ELATestPrep.com
6 Instructional Shifts for ELA & Math 6 ELA Shifts 6 Math Shifts Focus Coherence Fluency Deep Understanding Applications Dual Intensity • Balancing Informational & Literary Text • Knowledge in the Disciplines • Staircase of Complexity • Text-Based Answers • Writing From Sources • Academic Vocabulary www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 1: Focus • Significantly narrow and deepen the scope of how time is spent in the classroom • Spend more time thinking and working on fewer concepts • Focus deeply on only concepts prioritized in the standards • Students: • reach strong foundational knowledge • deep conceptual understanding • transfer math skills and understanding across concepts & grades www.ELATestPrep.com
Examining CCSS at your Grade • What are the new domains? • List the skills/concepts which carry over from CA’97 to CCSS. • List the skills/concepts which will be new to your grade. • List the CA’97 skills/concepts which will be eliminated by CCSS. • link to template www.ELATestPrep.com
Correlation Between CA’97 and CCSS www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 2: Coherence • Build on knowledge in year to year, in a coherent learning progression • Connect learning within and across grades • Spiraling of concepts across grades so that students build onto foundations built in previous years • Deep conceptual understanding of core content • Each standard is NOT a new event, but an extension of previous learning www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 3: Fluency • Spend time practicing skills with intensity • Push students to know basic skills at a greater level of fluency • Students have speed & accuracy • Memorize through repetition core functions • Focus on the listed fluencies by grade level • Create high quality worksheets, problem sets, in high volume www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 4: Deep Understanding • Don’t simply teach “how to get the answer” • Help students access concepts from a number of perspectives • Help students see math as more than a set of mnemonics or discrete procedures • Apply math to new situations; even writing & speaking • Spend the time necessary to gain depth www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 5: Applications • Apply math across the disciplines and “real world” • Choose the right concept to solve a problem even when not prompted to do so • Students use math in science particularly www.ELATestPrep.com
Shift 6: Dual Intensity • Practicing & Understanding are occurring with dual intensity • Opportunities for students to participate in “drills” • Equal opportunities for students to make use of those skills through extended application • Provide enough class time for mathematics www.ELATestPrep.com
Standards for Mathematical Practice • Purpose • Describe varieties of expertise that educators at all levels should seek to develop in their students • They define the essence of what math is and what mathematicians and proficient students can do. • Think like a disciplinarian – Mathematicians... • The following link on the Core Standards site gives the full details of the SMP: http://www.corestandards.org/Math/Practice www.ELATestPrep.com
1. Make sense of problems & persevere in solving them. • Mathematically proficient students: • start by analyzing the meaning of a problem. • plan a solution pathway rather than jump to a solution. • consider analogous problems& try simpler forms. • use concrete objects to help conceptualize problems. • check their answers. www.ELATestPrep.com
2. Reason abstractly & quantitatively • Mathematically proficient students: • make sense of quantities and their relationships in problems. • decontextualize (represent a real problem symbolically) and manipulate the symbols. • contextualize (pause to make sense of symbols). • attend to the meaning of quantities, NOT just how to compute them. www.ELATestPrep.com
3. Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. • Mathematically proficient students: • analyze situations by breaking them into cases. • use counterexamples. • justify conclusions and communicate with others. • explain flaws in others’ arguments. • listen or read others’ arguments and decide if they make sense. www.ELATestPrep.com
4. Model with mathematics. • Mathematically proficient students: • apply math to solve real life problems. www.ELATestPrep.com
5. Use appropriate tools strategically. • Mathematically proficient students: • consider available tools when solving problems. • pencil & paper • concrete models • ruler or protractor • calculator or computer • are able to use technological tools to explore & deepen understanding of concepts. www.ELATestPrep.com
6. Attend to precision. • Mathematically proficient students: • communicate precisely to others. • use clear definitions. • state the meaning of symbols they choose. • are careful about specifying units of measure and labeling. • calculate accurately & efficiently. www.ELATestPrep.com
7. Look for and make use of structure. • Mathematically proficient students: • look closely to discern a pattern or structure. www.ELATestPrep.com
8. Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning. • Mathematically proficient students: • notice if calculations are repeated. • look for both general methods & shortcuts. • maintain oversight of the process, while attending to the details. • Evaluate reasonableness of their intermediate results. www.ELATestPrep.com
Implications for Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment • CCSS focus on: • Depth of understanding • Application of knowledge and skills • Interdisciplinary activities • Any assessment that verifies these factors will necessarily bring fundamental changes to curriculum and teaching strategies. www.ELATestPrep.com
A revolution in student assessments will soon be upon us. STAR CST SBAC www.ELATestPrep.com
www.smarterbalanced.org • Smarter Balanced is a state-led consortium developing assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards in ELA and Math that are designed to help prepare all students to graduate high school college- and career-ready. • The assessments are so revolutionary, that even if we kept the exact same ‘97 standards, our instructional practices would still need to transform so that students are prepared. www.ELATestPrep.com
SBAC assessments will go beyond multiple-choice questions to include extended response and technology enhanced items, as well as performance tasks that allow students to demonstrate critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. www.ELATestPrep.com
In 2014-15, students will be assessed through the SBAC consortium on their mastery of the CCSS standards. Pilots will begin now. • SBAC will assess grades 3-8 and 11 in ELA and Math. • The assessments will be administered online using adaptive technology. source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com
Selected Response • Assessment items where students select from a given set of response options • Constructed & Extended Response • Assessment items where students produce the response instead of selecting from a list • Technology-Enhanced/Technology Enabled • Assessment items that employ technology to elicit a response from a student • Performance Tasks • Assessment items where students perform a skill or create a product. source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com
