Common Core State Standards District Implementation
Lauderdale County School District
KEY/VITAL Points• EVERY teacher in the school must be involved initially, throughout the
entire implementation process and once the standards are fully implemented. – “Because the ELA classroom must focus on literature (stories, drama
and poetry) as well as literary nonfiction, a great deal of informational reading in grades 5-12 must take place in other classes to meet the demands of the standards.”
– COMMUNICATION!! – COMMUNICATION!!– PLC’s horizontally and vertically. 4th grade teachers and 5th grade
teachers must spend time together.– Imperative that all grade level teachers plan and share ideas of CCSS
implementation

Suggested Implementation Timeline
It may help to think of implementation as a multi-year process of weaving the Common Core State Standards into the fabric of classroom instruction until the CCSS have replaced the MS Curriculum Frameworks.
7
Reading• Balance of literature and informational texts• Focus on text complexity and what students read
Writing• Emphasis on argument and informative/explanatory writing• Writing about sources (evidence)
Speaking and Listening• Inclusion of formal and informal talk
Language• Stress on academic and domain-specific vocabulary
Address reading and writing across the curriculum• Responsibility of teachers in those subjects• Complement rather than replace content standards in those
subjects
Key Advances in the Common Core ELA/Literacy Standards
8
Key Advances in the Common Core Math Standards
Focus and coherence• Focus on key topics at each grade level• Coherent progressions across grade levels
Depth over breadth• Allows more time for mastery
Balance of concepts and skills• Content standards require both conceptual understanding and
procedural fluency
Mathematical practices• Foster reasoning and sense-making in mathematics
9
Shift from “What’s Taught” to “What Students Need to Be Able to Do”
To succeed in 21st century college and careers, students need to be able to:
1. Solve problems
2. Manage oneself
3. Adapt to change
4. Analyze/conceptualize
5. Reflect on /improve performance
6. Communicate
7. Work in teams
8. Create / innovate / critique
9. Engage in learning throughout life
10
Instructional Delivery System
At a minimum, to successfully implement Common Core State Standards and Assessments, TEACHERS must:
1. Know how to plan intentionally for rigorous and deep learning experiences.
2. Know how to design and utilize formative assessment that ensures retention and the ability to apply learning.
3. Be able to create a learning environment that fosters deep thinking, engagement of students, integration of subject areas, and problem-based learning experiences.
4. Must be able to analyze and use a variety of data to drive instructional practice.
5. Must embrace continuous professional learning.

• How teachers should teach• All that can or should be taught• Intervention strategies to support
students• The full range of support appropriate for
English Language Learners and for students with special needs
• Textbooks to help with implementation
What is not included in the CCSS?
15
Alignment of CCSS English Language Arts (ELA)
and MS ELA
• Overall alignment is good• Few specifics in the Common Core are not
addressed in the MS ELA Framework or not addressed at the same grade level
• Many of the MS ELA Framework objectives and sub-objectives are not mentioned in the Common Core
• Rigor is comparable
13
• Overall alignment is not good
• Many specifics in the CCSS are addressed in the MS Math Framework but at a lower grade level(s)
• Several of the MS Math Framework objectives are not mentioned in the Common Core
• CCSS for Math are more rigorous than the MS Math Framework

Refinements Respond to State Concerns
In adopting the refined assessment design, PARCC incorporated feedback from member states regarding:
• The cost of the assessments
• The amount of testing time needed to administer the assessments
• Possible disruption to school schedules caused by through- course assessment preparation and administration
• Potential limits to local control of curriculum and instruction

PERFORMANCEASSESSMENT
END OF YEARASSESSMENT
• Given primarily on computer or other digital devices
• Composed primarily performance tasks with emphasis on hard-to-measure standards
• Results returned within 2 weeks
•Given on computer, with multiple item
types and technological tools
•Scored entirely by computer forfast results
PARCC: Two Components of the Summative Assessment
• Scores from the performance assessment and the end-of-year test will be combined for annual accountability scores.

PERFORMANCEASSESSMENT
• ELA• Math
PARCC:
Performance Assessment
Over several sessions/class periods, students will complete a project-like task that draws on a range of skills.
• ELA/literacy tasks will focus on writing effectively when analyzing texts, using evidence drawn from the texts to support claims.
• Math tasks will require students to apply key mathematical skills, concepts and processes to solve complex problems of the types encountered in everyday life, work and decision-making.

EARLY ASSESSMENT
Mid-Year Performance-Based Assessment
(Potentially summative*)
MID-YEAR ASSESSMENT
• Formative early assessment is designed to provide an indicator of student knowledge and skills so that instruction, supports and professional development can be tailored to student needs.
• Formative mid-year performance tasks are designed to prepare students for the Summative Performance Assessment and to yield instructionally useful feedback. Teachers will be given an online scoring tool to score tasks and improve understanding of the CCSS expectations.• For voluntary use, the timing of the administration is to be locally determined.
* Over time, states may consider using scores from these tasks in the summative/accountability scores.

The Progression of Reading Standard 10
• The importance of “Progression”• Changes from grade to grade• Informational texts, history/social studies
texts, science/technical texts• ALL teachers can help with the progression of
reading-read informational texts within the grade bands from Science, Social Studies & technical courses (all courses)
Appendix B: “Text Exemplars and Sample Performance Tasks”
• K-12 - Stories, Poetry, Read-Aloud Stories, Read-Aloud Poetry, Informational Texts, Read-Aloud Informational Texts, Drama
• Sample Performance Tasks for stories, Dramas, Poetry, Informational Texts
• This resource will tie directly into the PARCC LA Frameworks
Appendix C: “Samples of Student Writing”
• K-12 Writing examples– Narrative– Informative/Explanatory– Argument (Opinion)
PARCC Model Content Frameworks “English Language Arts/Literacy”
• Charts show key emphasis within the standards for Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and language (including Vocabulary)
• Charts reflect the integrated nature of reading, writing and research• Suggests the number and type of texts to read and analyze.
– Students write about the texts either to express an opinion/make an argument or to inform/explain
– Research and narrative writing tasks appear as well– As indicated by the bar that stretches underneath the chart, reading, writing
and research rest on a foundational skill set that includes citing evidence, analyzing content, using correct grammar, acquiring and applying vocabulary, conducting discussions, and report findings.
– Pages 3-11, A MUST READ– Writing and Speaking and Listening Progression Charts-charts are devoted to
highlighting the shifts in a single standard from grade to grade
