Today’s Agenda

Understand CCSS for mathematics and English language arts and their accompanying assessments Review the current landscape related to standards implementation in WI

“Every child must

graduate ready for future education and the workforce. We must align our efforts so all our students are prepared to succeed in college or a career.”

• State Superintendent

Tony Evers, Agenda 2017

Wisconsin’s Vision for ALL Learners

The CCSSM and CCSS ELA call for significant changes in teaching and learning to meet this challenge.

"Every student must graduate ready for further education and the workforce. We must align our efforts so all our students are prepared to succeed in college or a career.“

Tony Evers, State Superintendent Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction

Wisconsin’s Guiding Principles for Teaching and Learning

• 1. Every student has the right to learn.
• 2. Instruction must be rigorous and relevant.
• 3. Purposeful assessment drives instruction

and affects learning.

• 4. Learning is a collaborative responsibility.
• 5. Students bring strengths and experiences

to learning.

• 6. Responsive environments engage learners.

CCSS Overview Video

Let’s Dig In To The CCSS: True or False?

• No teachers were involved in the

writing of the CCSS. True False

Academic Standards: Not a New Idea

Who Wrote the CCSS?

• The NGA and CCSSO brought together

content experts, teachers, and researchers in 2008 to write college and career readiness standards.

• The standards were first available for

public comment in 2009.

Common Core State Standards

True or False?

• The CCSS amount to a national

curriculum for our schools. True False

Standards Are Not A Curriculum

• Standards are

statements about WHAT students should know/be able to do.

• States and individual

school districts decide HOW students should get there.

True or False?

• The CCSS require collection of

personal data and family information. True False

No New Data Collection is Required as Part of CCSS

• The Family Educational Rights &

Privacy Act require that all student data be highly protected, used only for agreed-upon education purposes, and not be further disclosed.

• In WI, student data is owned by

districts and state laws exceed federal requirements.

True or False?

• The CCSS doesn’t require students to

learn mathematical facts. True False

Rigor EQUAL intensity in conceptual understanding,

procedural skill/fluency and application

Conceptual Understanding: Standards call for conceptual understanding of key concepts. Procedural Skill & Fluency: Students use procedures efficiently with

• understanding. For example, 8x7 is
• ne more 7 than 7x7.

Application: Students are able to apply mathematics skills and procedures to make meaning of and access content.

Common Core State Standards for Mathematics, p. 6.

Centering Mathematics in Wisconsin

The Standards for Mathematical Practice

describe varieties of expertise or habits of mind that mathematics educators at all levels should seek to develop in their students.

What Does A Mathematics Standard Look Like?

• 5.NBT.5: Fluently multiply multi-digit

whole numbers using the standard algorithm.

• 5.MD.5: Relate volume to the
• perations of multiplication and

addition and solve real world and mathematical problems involving volume.

True or False?

• The CCSS Mathematics don’t prepare
• r require students to learn Algebra in

the 8th grade. True False

K 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 HS

Counting & Cardinality Algebra Number and Quantity Modeling Operations & Algebraic Thinking Expressions and Equations Number & Operations in Base Ten The Number System Number & Operations Fractions Ratios & Proportional Relationships Functions Measurement & Data Statistics & Probability Geometry

CCSSM – Standards Progression

True or False?

• The CCSS ELA dictate which texts to

use and don’t allow for the use of classic literary texts. True False

ELA

Reading Writing

Speaking & Listening

Language

Informational Text (RI) Literature (RL) Reading Foundational Skills (RF)

Students Should Read A Balance of Literature & Informational Text

Literature Informational Text

Grade 4 50% 50% Grade 8 45% 55% Grade 12 30% 70%

CCSS for ELA, p. 5

What Does An English Language Arts Standard Look Like?

• RI.5.6: Analyze multiple accounts of the

same event or topic, noting important similarities and differences in the point of view they represent.

• RL.5.2: Determine a theme of a story,

drama, or poem from details in the text, including how characters in a story or drama respond to challenges or how the speaker in a poem reflects upon a topic; summarize the text.

The Assessment Challenge

How do we get from here... ...to here?

All students leave high school college and career ready Common Core State Standards specify K-12 expectations for college and career readiness

...and what can an assessment system do to help?
