Where We’ve Been
Introduction to Common Core/NC Essential Standards
Mathematical Practices
CLOSE Reading Technique
What’s Next
Today’s PurposeTo explore the format of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics
To examine the vertical alignment of instruction and assessments to ensure that course expectations (2012-2013) are appropriately aligned to Common Core State Standards.
Key ideas
Common core state standards are research based.
The sequence of topics respects what is known about how children learn and develop over time.
The intent is for students to “understand”, not just do.
All students must have the opportunity to learn the same high standards.
Naming the standardsWhat does 7.G.3 tell you?
Grade level Standard number
7.G.3
Domain
This is the third 7th grade Geometry standard.
High school standards (math 1)These standards have a slightly different naming
convention.
Conceptual category Standard number
A-CED.3
Domain
This standard is from the Algebra category and the Creating Equations domain. It is standard #3.
Accessing YOUR Standards Go to the VCS Moodle site
Click on Instructional Technology from the Course Categories
Click on Common Core & NC Essential
Standards
Select Common Core State
Standards for Math from the
Mathematics section
CLOSE Read
Closely read p. 5 of the CCSS, “How to read the grade level standards”.
List 3 key ideas from the page.
Share your ideas with others at your table.
Each table will report 2 ideas.
Key fact!!!!
“These standards are not intended to be new names for old ways of doing business.”
The standards for mathematical practice are crucial here.
Our standards are organized into FIVE Conceptual Categories:
• Number and Quantity• Algebra
• Functions• Geometry
• Statistics and Probability
Modeling Standards Modeling is best interpreted not as a collection of isolated topics but rather in relation to other standards. Making mathematical models is a
Standard for Mathematical Practice, and specific modeling standards appear the high school standards indicated by
a star symbol (★).

Knowing where to find information is just as
important as knowing the information.
Using the Common Core State Standards in
Mathematics, search with others around you to navigate through the conceptual categories and answer the questions on
the handout provided

HIGH SCHOOL INTRODUCTION
Approximately
5 mins.
High School Introduction p.57 1. What symbol indicates the mathematics that
students need to take advanced courses? The symbol, “+”
2. What does a * symbolize in the standards? Modeling standard
3. What does it mean if a cluster heading has a *? All standards in that cluster are modeling
standards

NUMBER AND QUANTITY
Approximately
13 mins.

Their new meanings are consistent from before.
6. Read the subsection Quantities and explain the process of quantification.
The analysis of attributes of interests by determining their quantity (value) as determined by the context of
the problem.

The Current Dilemma
DAILY instructional
activities/lessons are aligned to state standards
The Solution
(Cohen, 1987; English & Steffy, 2001; Moss-Mitchell, 1998; Neidermeyer & Yelon, 1981; Porter et al., 1994; Porter & Smithson, 2001; Price-Braugh, 1997; Wishnick, 1989)
VERTICAL ALIGNMENTEstablishing and/or recognizing the scope and sequence
of course content to ensure…
An appropriate amount of time is devoted to instruction
Unnecessary repetitions are
removed
Gaps are indentified
Assessments are appropriate
Activity: Building a Map
• In two separate groups, remove the content of the envelope and place them on the table so that all members can read its statements
• Discuss what statements should be learned and/or mastered at each grade band (K-2, 3-5, 6-8 and 9-12) in regards to the Geometry Domain
Activity: Building a Map
• Have one group member keep notes of the conversations and/or questions that arise
• Once a group consensus has been made, arrange them on the table under the appropriate grade band
• Make note of how one statement may contribute to the understanding of another
Activity: Building a Map
• Have a group member share out the group’s progression map and discussions with the whole group
Compare your maps to the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics

HOW DID YOUR GROUP DO?
Discuss your reactions and any misconceptions that
you/your group may have had.
Where We’re Going On next/last early release session will
be on Wednesday, March 21 at Northern
We will begin Unit/Assessment Planning and Locating Resources
There will be two days of Common Core/NC Essential Standards training for core teachers this summer – Dates TBA
