  5. What is Common Core State Standards? • Reflects the changes in society • Better prepares students for college and careers • It is being taught in most of the United States • Focuses on learning expectation for students • Covers English Language Art and Math from Kindergarten through High School

  6. What Is The Focus Of Common Core State Standards? • Are aligned with college/work expectations; • Are clear, understandable and consistent; • Include rigorous content and application of knowledge through high-order skills;

  7. What Is The Focus Of Common Core State Standards? • Build upon strengths and lessons of current state standards; • Are informed by other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society; and • Are evidence- and research-based.

  8. What exactly has changed? North Carolina Standard Course of Study Before 2012-2013 School Year Common Core State Standards and N C Essential Standards Starting 2012-2013 School Year
