Slide 2
What are Educational Standards? learning goals for what
students should know and be able to do at each grade level.
benchmarks that ensure that students have the skills and knowledge
they need to be successful. information that helps parents and the
public understand what is expected of children by the end of a
grade level.
Slide 3
What are the CCSS? Grade level benchmarks that Were developed
by education departments and governors from 48 states (2008). Are a
set of articulated standards for ELA, math, and Literacy on All
Subjects. Are designed to make students college and career ready.
Provide teachers with consistent goals and benchmarks. Specify what
students need to know and be able to do by the end of a grade
level.
Slide 4
Which states? Full implementation in Wisconsin: 2014-15 school
year Forty five states, the District of Columbia, four territories,
and the Department of Defense Education Not adopted in Texas,
Alaska, Nebraska, Virginia, Minnesota (ELA only).
Slide 5
What is different in ELA? Regular practice with complex texts
and their academic language Reading, writing, and speaking grounded
in evidence from texts, both literary and informational (in K-5, a
50-50 ratio of fiction to nonfiction) Building knowledge through
content-rich nonfiction (in grades 6-12, the Literacy for All
Content Areas CCSS ensure that students can independently build
knowledge in content disciplines through reading and writing.
Slide 6
Heres an ELA Anchor Standard Literature: Key Ideas and Details
College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standard 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. (The same
standard across multiple grade levels)
Slide 7
GradeGrade-Specific Standard Kindergarten With prompting and
support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
Grade 1Ask and answer questions about key details in a text. Grade
2 Ask and answer such questions as who, what, where, when, why, and
how to demonstrate understanding of key details in a text. Grade 3
Ask and answer questions to demonstrate understanding of a text,
referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers.
Grade 4Refer to details and examples in a text when explaining what
the text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the
text.
Slide 8
Grade 5 Quote accurately from a text when explaining what the
text says explicitly and when drawing inferences from the text.
Grade 6 Cite textual evidence to support analysis of what the text
says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text. Grade 7
Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what
the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.
Grade 8 Cite the textual evidence that most strongly supports an
analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences
drawn from the text. Grades 9- 10 Cite strong and thorough textual
evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as
well as inferences drawn from the text. Grades 11-12 Cite strong
and thorough textual evidence to support analysis of what the text
says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text,
including determining where the text leaves matters uncertain.
Slide 9
Whats different in Math? Greater focus on fewer topics
Coherence: linking topics across grade levels Rigor: - conceptual
understanding as in understanding key concepts such as place value
-procedural skills and fluency relative to speed and accuracy in
calculation - application with equal intensity as in correctly
applying the mathematical process required in everyday
situations
Slide 10
Slide 11
Math - topic Measurement and Data K-5 Progression Kindergarten
describe and compare measurable attributes Grade 1 measure lengths
indirectly by iterating length units Grade 2 measure and estimate
lengths in standard units Grade 3 solve problems involving
measurement and estimation of intervals of time, liquid volumes,
and masses of objects. Grade 4 solve problems involving measurement
and conversion of measurements from a larger unit to a smaller unit
Grade 5 Convert like measurement units within a given measurement
system.
Slide 12
What about students with IEPs? Must be challenged to excel
within the general curriculum and be prepared for success in their
post- school lives, including college and/or careers Must have
improved access to rigorous academic content standards for students
with disabilities SO, In order for students with disabilities to
meet high academic standards their instruction must have Designed
supports An IEP specific to learning goals and needs relative to
CCSS, teachers who are prepared and qualified
(corestandards.org)
Slide 13
And further Promoting a culture of high expectations for all
students is a fundamental goal of the Common Core State Standards.
In order to participate with success in the general curriculum,
students with disabilities, as appropriate, may be provided
additional supports and services, such as: Instructional supports
for learning based on the principles of Universal Design for
Learning (UDL)2 which foster student engagement by presenting
information in multiple ways and allowing for diverse avenues of
action and expression. (corestandards.org)
Slide 14
What about other Uncommon Students? Second Language Learners?
Kids from poverty environments? Gifted students?

Education Common Core Resources for Special Education
http://www.cde.ca.gov/sp/se/cc/ This site offers resources and
guidelines on what the CCSS and the new tests will mean for
California students in the Special Education Community. I really
like this site and it has many articles, including a lot of
information on universal design, many learning tools, and a search
for books/items in grade or subject area
