Instructional ShiftsIn
Common Core
Presented by: Elk Grove Unified School District
Our focus in EGUSD for 2013-2014 is to start implementing the Standards
for Mathematical Practice
Outcomes for Session 3:1. Understand the instructional shifts required by
CCSS2. Investigate the implications of the 8
mathematical practices on our classroom instruction
3. Where/how do I start?
Think about:• The tasks you select• The questions you ask
Think before you do
One of the shifts in CCSS instruction is to get students to think about what they see, what they know and to analyze the problem before making decisions about what they want to do.
Here’s the task
238
Think about:• student misconceptions• the questions you ask
your students• Multiple representations
Integration of SMPs• Not “Problem Solving Fridays”• Not “enrichment” for advanced students• Most lie in the process of arriving at an answer,
not necessarily in the answer itself• Every lesson should seek to build student
expertise in both Content and Practice standards• SMPs are not meant to be taught separately,
good tasks & questions will include several math practices

Instructional Shifts That Raise Student Achievement.
• Principal Research Analyst at the American Institutes for Research in Washington, D.C.
• President of the National Council of Supervisors of Mathematics.
Listen for the instructional shifts!
Leinwand Instructional Shifts (Implications for how we teach)
• Move away from teaching math as a series of steps and procedures
• Increase critical thinking opportunities for students• Make connections between concepts both past & future• Show multiple methods and representations• Create depth of understanding• Create language rich classrooms• Check for understanding/use formative assessment• Place a strong emphasis on the development of number

Compare. Use >, <, or =
Same Problem with SMP integration
Which fraction is closer to 1. Using a number line,
explain why this is so.

Three Key Words in the CCSS
• Focus: The curriculum must include adequate depth. Refers to grade level standards or“Horizontal Alignment”
• Coherence: the curriculum has logical progressions from less sophisticated topics into more sophisticated ones. Refers to how the standards are organized across grade levels “Vertical Alignment”
Rigor: The curriculum must have a balanced approach that emphasizes procedural fluency, conceptual understanding and application/modeling.
Rigor is not….• ?• increased number of homework problems• taking algebra in 7th grade or taking calculus in
11th grade• Covering more material at a faster pace
This is going to be hard and I know you may not be ready!

What does this mean for teachers?
I’m sooooooo overwhelmed! Where do I start?
1. Cut yourself some slack!
What does this mean for teachers?
2. CCSS implementation is not a light switch you can just turn on…. It’s more of a dimmer switch that will increasingly get brighter.
What does this mean for teachers?3. Teacher collaboration is a must!
4. What is your mind-set? Embrace this as an opportunity to learn.
