Implementing the Common Core State Standards, 8th Grade Muskegon June 27, 2011
Thinking About the Standards Pi Activity: • Developing a Definition • Going Deeper • Multiple Representations In pairs identify the instructional strategies and mathematics in this activity.
Introduction to the Standards • History • Implementation
Using the CCSS and MP Building a Ramp Activity • Activity • Examining Student Work • Direct Variation Sort (Formative Assessment) • Identifying the CCSS and MP
Going Deeper 8.EE.5 Distance – Time Graphs: Graph proportional relationships, interpreting the unit rate as the slope of the graph. Compare two different proportional relationships represented in different ways. For example, compare a distance-time graph to a distance-time equation to determine which of two moving objects has greater speed.
Exploring a Lesson • Bus Stop Problem – Student Activity • Analyzing Student Thinking • Distance – Time Sort • Organizing Student Discussion • TTLP

Organizing Your Thoughts • CCSS cards • Organize and group the CCSS cards by connections and topic. - Look for multiple representations - Think about order - Connections across domains. • Sharing
What’s Next • Day 2: Geometry - Transformations - similarity • Day 3: Number, Non-Linear planning, units, assessment
Conclusion The promise of standards These Standards are not intended to be new names for old ways of doing business. They are a call to take the next step. It is time for states to work together to build on lessons learned from two decades of standards based reforms. It is time to recognize that standards are not just promises to our children, but promises we intend to keep.
