  2. Agenda/Purpose • Build awareness about CCSS and understand implications for change to assessment, standards, curriculum, and instruction • Why the change? • Brief description of Common Core and the required instructional shifts • A revolution in assessments • Webb’s Depth of Knowledge • Looking deeper into CCSS structures • How to move forward/next steps www.ELATestPrep.com

  3. The 3 Gears of Common Core www.ELATestPrep.com

  4. Why the Change? • Program for International Student Assessment (PISA): • Math: China 600, Germany 513, United States 487 (31st place) • Reading: China 556, Korea 539, United States 500 (17th place) • Science: China 575, Finland 554, United States 502 (23rd place) • Some have called this our “Sputnik moment” www.ELATestPrep.com

  5. Common Core State Standards • Essential Attributes • Take into account most effective models from around the country and even the world • Standards are based on several key factors: • Research and evidence • Alignment with college and work expectations • Rigor • International levels www.ELATestPrep.com

  6. Common Core State Standards • A voluntary state-led effort to reform and unify the current state-by-state standards • Have currently been adopted by 48 states and 3 territories • Discuss: • What are two positives for CA educators about consistent , nationwide standards? • Are there any concerns related to new nationwide standards? www.ELATestPrep.com

  7. 6 Instructional Shifts for ELA • Balancing Informational & Literary Text • Knowledge in the Disciplines • Staircase of Complexity • Text-Based Answers • Writing From Sources • Academic Vocabulary • video www.ELATestPrep.com

  8. Implications for Curriculum, Instruction, and Assessment • CCSS focus on: • Depth of understanding • Application of knowledge and skills • Interdisciplinary activities • Any assessment that verifies these factors will necessarily bring fundamental changes to curriculum and teaching strategies. www.ELATestPrep.com

  9. A revolution in student assessments will soon be upon us. STAR CST SBAC www.ELATestPrep.com

  10. www.smarterbalanced.org • Smarter Balanced is a state-led consortium developing assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards in ELA and Math that are designed to help prepare all students to graduate high school college- and career-ready. • The assessments are so revolutionary, that even if we kept the exact same ‘97 standards, our instructional practices would still need to transform so that students are prepared. www.ELATestPrep.com

  11. SBAC assessments will go beyond multiple-choice questions to include extended response and technology enhanced items, as well as performance tasks that allow students to demonstrate critical-thinking and problem-solving skills. www.ELATestPrep.com

  12. In 2014-15, students will be assessed through the SBAC consortium on their mastery of the CCSS standards. Pilots will begin now. • SBAC will assess grades 3-8 and 11 in ELA and Math. • The assessments will be administered online using adaptive technology. source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com

  13. Selected Response • Assessment items where students select from a given set of response options • Constructed & Extended Response • Assessment items where students produce the response instead of selecting from a list • Technology-Enhanced/Technology Enabled • Assessment items that employ technology to elicit a response from a student • Performance Tasks • Assessment items where students perform a skill or create a product. source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com

  21. Norman Webb – Depth of Knowledge (DOK) • Levels of rigor which will now be associated with standards, instruction, and assessment. • Level 1 = Recall & Reproduction • Level 2 = Skills & Concepts • Level 3 = Strategic Thinking / Reasoning • Level 4 = Extended Thinking www.ELATestPrep.com

  22. Webb’s Definition of DOK (Hess, 2009) • DOK-1 (Recall & Reproduction) Recall of a fact, term, principle, concept; perform a routine procedure; locate details • DOK-2 (Basic Application of Skills/Concepts) Use of information; conceptual knowledge; select appropriate procedures for a given task; two or more steps with decision points along the way; routine problems; organize/display data; interpret/use simple graphs; summarize; identify main idea; explain relationships; make predictions • DOK-3 (Strategic Thinking) Requires reasoning, or developing a plan or sequence of steps to approach the problem; requires decision making or justification; abstract, complex, or non-routine; often more than one possible answer; support solutions or judgments with text evidence • DOK-4 (Extended Thinking) An investigation or application to real world; requires time to research, problem solve, and process multiple conditions of the problem or task; noun-routine manipulations; synthesize information across disciplines/content areas/multiple sources source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com

  23. Complexity • Does NOT refer to difficulty, but rather to the cognitive steps a test-taker must go through to arrive at a correct answer. • A level 3 or 4 task isn’t necessarily moredifficult, but rather, it has more steps that are required to complete the task; making it morecomplex. source: SBCOE www.ELATestPrep.com

  26. www.corestandards.org • Mission Statement: The Common Core State Standards provide a consistent, clear understanding of what students are expected to learn, so teachers and parents know what they need to do to help them. The standards are designed to be robust and relevant to the real world, reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young people need for success in college and careers. With American students fully prepared for the future, our communities will be best positioned to compete successfully in the global economy. www.ELATestPrep.com

  27. Structure of CA ‘97 Structure of CCSS 32 Anchor Standards, backwards mapped from 12th grade down to K. Reading literature (RL) informational materials (RI) foundational (RF) Writing (W) Speaking & Listening (SL) Language Conventions (L) • 6 ELA strands with inconsistent vertical alignment between grade levels. • Word Analysis (RW) • Reading Comprehension (RC) • Literary Response and Analysis (RL) • Written and Oral Conventions (WC) • Writing Strategies (WS) • Writing Applications (WA) www.ELATestPrep.com

  28. How to identify/name a standard: • Individual standards are identified by their strand, grade, and number. RI.4.3 reading, 4th standard 3 informational Grade text www.ELATestPrep.com

  29. Underline nouns and circle verbs in Reading Anchor Standard 2. • Underline nouns and circle verbs in Reading Grade-Level Standard 2 for K - 5th grades. • What do you notice? • Spiraling staircase of complexity. www.ELATestPrep.com

  30. College and Career Readiness Anchor Standards for Reading The K–5 standards on the following pages define what students should understand and be able to do by the end of each grade. They correspond to the College and Career Readiness (CCR) anchor standards below by number. The CCR and grade-specific standards are necessary complements—the former providing broad standards, the latter providing additional specificity—that together define the skills and understandings that all students must demonstrate. Key Ideas and Details 1. Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to support conclusions drawn from the text. 2. Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas. 3. Analyze how and why individuals, events, and ideas develop and interact over the course of a text. www.ELATestPrep.com

  33. R.CCR.2 Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development; summarize the key supporting details and ideas. • RI.K.2 With prompting and support, identify the main topic and retell key details of a text. • RI.1.2 Identify the main topic and retell key details of a text. • RI.2.2 Identify the main topic of a multi-paragraph text as well as the focus of specific paragraphs within the text. • RI.3.2 Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea. • RI.4.2 Determine the main idea of a text and explain how it is supported by key details; summarize the text. • RI.5.2 Determine two or more main ideas of a text and explain how they are supported by key details; summarize the text. www.ELATestPrep.com

  34. Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects should be fully integrated into the CCSS ELA content areas. • MLK Birmingham Video www.ELATestPrep.com

  37. Accelerated Reader, ATOS, and the Common Core

  38. Instructional Vs. Independent Reading • Instructional Reading is the formal reading done in a classroom with teacher input and guidance and encompasses all curricular areas. • Independent Reading is the reading that students do on their own. This is an area where reading can be differentiated to accommodate the reading level of the child in order to increase their reading ability.

  39. CCSS do NOT define: • How teachers should teach!!!! • All that can or should be taught • The nature of advanced work • Intervention methods or materials • The full range of supports for English learners and students with special needs.

  40. Correlation Between CA’97 and CCSS www.ELATestPrep.com

  41. Possible Challenges • We’re still accountable to the STAR CST until 2014-15, but we need to transition to CCSS now. • No curriculum/resources aligned with CCSS • Huge shift in instructional strategies • Technology www.ELATestPrep.com

  42. Possible Solutions / Next Steps • We need to be the experts! • Be positive; this is a rare do-over opportunity! • Examine the CCSS for my grade level • Use the CA’97 to CCSS springboard template/document to help us transition • Design lesson(s) which take a CA’97 standard(s) DOK-1 and add complexity so it is CCSS DOK-2, 3, or 4. • GATE Icons of depth & complexity may be the key to creating DOK2-4 activities. • Explore interdisciplinary approach with math, science, and ELA • Communicate and collaborate • Share ideas and work with colleagues • Invite observation and feedback www.ELATestPrep.com
