  1. Washington CCSS Fellows: The Vision • Build teacher leader capacity in Mathematics and English Language Arts (ELA) across all regions in Washington • Create a state-wide system of supports grounded in a consistent educator network that provides access to implementation resources across the regions • Create a platform for teacher voice to inform statewide implementation efforts • Build on existing opportunities that engage teacher leaders within each region CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  2. 2013 Fellows Work: Kickoff: a partnership with CSTP • Common Core Fellows will develop a deeper understanding of the CCSS • Identify high-leverage practices that support instructional shifts required for implementation of the CCSS. • Consistent and focused professional development that supports implementation of the CCSS.

  5. Theory of Practice for CCSS Implementation in WA 2-Prongs: • The What: Content Shifts (for students and educators) • Belief that past standards implementation efforts have provided a strong foundation on which to build for CCSS; HOWEVER there are shifts that need to be attended to in the content. • The How: System “Remodeling” • Belief that successful CCSS implementation will not take place top down or bottom up – it must be “both, and…” • Belief that districts across the state have the conditions and commitment present to engage wholly in this work. • Professional learning systems are critical CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  6. Content Goals for ELA The big shifts, the big picture, and comprehensive literacy CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  8. Three Shifts in English Language Arts • Building content knowledge through content-rich nonfiction • Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational • Regular practice with complex text and its academic language CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  9. A Shift to comprehensive literacy CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  10. how word choice contributes to meaning and tone (RL.8.4) be able to cite textual evidence (RL.8.1) Grade 8: compare and contrast the structure of two or more texts and analyze how the different structure of each text contributes to its meaning and style (RL.8.5). support the assertions (arguments) they make in writing (W.8.1, W.8.9) CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  17. Top Resources for English Language Arts Educators • Achieve The Core Guidance and templates on how to begin implementing the shifts, assembled by the nonprofit Student Achievement Partners. • Publishers Criteria K-2 and Publishers' Criteria 3-12Provides criteria for aligned materials to CCSS. The documents intend to guide the work of publishers and curriculum developers, as well as states and school districts, as they design, evaluate, and select materials or revise existing materials. • EngageNY/ New York Materials for teachers and teams, videos of classroom application • Kansas Department of Ed Collection of teacher-created work for CCSS in the classroom • Literacy Design Collaborative (LDC) Focuses on secondary with an eye to cross-content integration. The LDC work can also inform all ELA teachers as we move to more comprehensive literacy teaching. • National Council of Teachers of English is convening multiple experts and partners to provide teachers with comprehensive supports for English Language Arts and professional collaborative learning. Stay tuned – more coming this fall! CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13

  18. Resources and Opportunities From CCSS Developers… • CCSS Publisher’s Criteria – ELA and Math (http://engageny.org/resource/publishers-criteria-for-elaliteracy-and-math/) Going deeper with other states… • Tri-State Quality Review Rubrics and Process (http://engageny.org/resource/tri-state-quality-review-rubric-and-rating-process/) These tools can be used to… • Inform materials review and adoption process • Consider existing materials • Facilitate targeted discussions, collaboration, and professional development with publishers and other providers CCSS FELLOWS INTRO 2-19-13
