Guiding Question • How can I use the spiraling nature of the CCES to plan and implement scaffolded learning targets for my students?
I Can… • I can use the CCSS spiral to determine what my students know and what they need to learn. • I can use the spiral to create appropriate learning targets for my students.
Key Vocabulary • Standards progression • Anchor standards • Strand • Learning target • Differentiation • Scaffolding • Acceleration
Think about this… • Who has a GPS device – either in your car or on your phone?
Think about this… • Why did you use your GPS even though you had already started your journey? • How did it feel to have that resource? • What would you have done without it?
The Spiral • CCSS begin with Anchor standards (the destination) and maps each strand backward all the way to kindergarten. • Why might the authors have done that? • Each grade has its part.
ELA used to be a marathon Now it’s a relay
Your mission… • Look at the spiral for Language Standard 5. • Highlight or underline the changes that are made from year to year. • Find your grade level. Write a learning target for a student who is on grade level.
What are the characteristics of a learning target? • Derived from a standard. • Uses the language of the standard. • Specific • Student friendly • Shows progression of learning • KUDos – Know, Understand, Do
Your mission…Differentiation • Write a scaffolded learning target for a student who is below grade level. • Write an accelerated learning target for a student above grade level.
