  1. Teaching to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Tips, Modification, and Teaching Strategies from Rhode Island

  2. Thank you to all the Rhode Island teachers who have shared creative and effective ways to teach students with unique sensory and learning needs. Many Thanks

  3. Agenda • Finding & Unpacking the CCSS • An integrated science investigation that embeds CCSSs • CCSSs that apply • Tips for teaching • Ideas for modifying content and materials • Clarification of standards languages • Technology to support learning

  4. Finding and Unpacking the Common Core State Standards

  5. Finding the CCSS http://www.corestandards.org/the-standards Mathematics English Language Arts

  7. Unpacking English Language Arts CCSS • ELA STRANDS • READING • WRITING • SPEAKING AND LISTENING • LANGUAGE

  8. General Information: CCSS in READING • CCSS establish a “staircase” of increasing complexity of reading skills. • GOAL: all students are ready for the demands of college‐ and career‐level reading no later than the end of high school • Teachers, school districts and states need to decide on appropriate curriculum: CCSS do not offer a reading “list” http://www.corestandards.org/assets/KeyPointsELA.pdf

  9. General Information: CCSS WRITING • CCSS focus on the ability to write logical arguments based on substantive claims, sound reasoning, and relevant evidence • Written analysis and presentation of findings http://www.corestandards.org/assets/KeyPointsELA.pdf

  10. General Information: CCSS SPEAKING and LISTENING • Require that students gain, evaluate, and present increasingly complex information, ideas, and evidence • Focus on informal discussion in one‐on‐one, small‐group, and whole‐class settings http://www.corestandards.org/assets/KeyPointsELA.pdf

  11. General Information: CCSS LANGUAGE • expect that students will grow their vocabularies through a mix of conversations, direct instruction, and reading. • help prepare students for real life experience at college and in 21st century careers. • vocabulary and conventions extend across reading, writing, speaking, and listening.

  12. General Information: CCSS MEDIA AND TECHNOLOGY • Skills related to media use are integrated throughout the standards.

  13. Unpacking the CCSS

  14. Unpacking the CCSS

  15. CCSS.ELA-Literacy.SL.K.4Describe familiar people, places, things, and events and, with prompting and support, provide additional detail. What we know from this CCSS? • CONTENT AREA: • Grade: • STRAND of ELA: • Standard: English Language Arts Kindergarten Speaking and Listening #4 Describe familiar people, places, things, and events and, with prompting and support, provide additional detail.

  27. Integrated Science Unit: Observe/Question

  28. Ideas for Modifications • Use augmentative communication supports to enhance conversation during the text • Objects Signs • Written Symbols Textures • Consider backgrounds, colors, and complexity when selecting symbols for students with CVI

  29. http://www.ric.edu/sherlockcenter/dsi/lessons/phybook1.pdf

  30. Introduce objects as the book is read

  31. Introduce symbols during reading. Make books interactive. HARD

  32. Modify presentation of information consistent with visual needs HARD

  33. ROUGH

  34. Developing a Research Question What objects are ________ ? HARD

  35. Developing a Research QuestionAugmented Symbols What objects are ________ ?

  36. Integrated Science UnitPlan

  37. Integrated Science UnitPlan Teacher: You picked something to test! What is that? Tell me about it. Student: describes the rock in their mode of communication If an augmentative communication device is used, key vocabulary can be introduced THROUGHOUT THE UNIT such as “rough”, “smooth”, “rock”, “tissue” to match the investigation.

  38. Integrated Science UnitThe Investigation 2 1 3 4 5 CCSS.Math.Content.K.CC.B.4aWhen counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object.

  39. Integrated Science UnitThe Investigation A Step-By-Step Augmentative Communication Device- successive messages. Student hits the device each time an object is placed in the counting bin First Hit “one” Second Hit “two” Third Hit “three Fourth Hit “four” Etc… CCSS.Math.Content.K.CC.B.4aWhen counting objects, say the number names in the standard order, pairing each object with one and only one number name and each number name with one and only one object.

Tips for Conversation with Deaf-Blind Partners • Allow the child to explore materials, bringing in the target symbols/vocabulary as part of science and in other unstructured experiences • In unstructured activities, allow the child to direct conversations about their topic (follow their agenda, not yours)
