History of DCA
*Three Year Mathematics Project
*Over 25 School Districts involved
*Professional Learning Community Building Valuable Resources
Objectives of Year 3: Review embedded skills & vocabulary
deconstructed from CCLS (Common Core Learning Standards) during year 2
Build sample tasks (questions) for the CCLS embedded skills that ensures multiple measures of assessment
Peer review & build assessment solutions for the sample tasks
Develop a regional scope & sequence by grade for the Common Core Learning Standards
Review criteria for home- school communications & report card alignment to CCLS
Understanding the Common Core Learning Standards for Mathematics
Common Core Learning Standards
8 Standards for Mathematical Practices
Grade Level Focus PointsRequired Fluencies for CCLSShifts in MathematicsNYS Assessment Transition
Plan for ELA & Math
We are stronger together than we are apart…
Summarize at least 3 key points with a partner.
DCA (Deep Curriculum Alignment Project) allows us to tackle this TOGETHER!
Grade Level Teams Worked to Define the new CCLS &
evaluate alignment
Embedded skills written as
measureable (using measurable
verbs)

Sample questions for the skills will be typed in
this box
Answer the following questions as a group and then post your responses around the room…
1) What are the characteristics of quality tasks or assessment items?
2) Describe multiple measures of assessment.
3) Explain what a ‘Balanced Assessment’ might include.
Grade 5 Assessment
Item Compariso
n
Compare the NYS Test Item Grade 5 Math (2005) with the Example Common Core Performance Task 5th Grade Math.• What are the embedded skills
that the student needed to know for each question? How does the level of rigor compare?

Common Core
Aligned Resources? Can this be true?
Many textbooks claim to be fully aligned to CCLS The Common Core Standards document
address this issue and clearly state that nothing published is aligned to the level of both procedural & conceptual understanding that the CCLS demand
Guidance can be obtained from a variety of Sample Task Resources such as: Buckle Down, Singapore Mathematics, People Choice, etc.
*Be careful not to spend too much time in these resources- STAY on target with being aligned to what the embedded skills demand…

Group Selections & Team Roles
Select group members for smaller working group (2-3 per group)
Decide as a table how to divide up the domains for the sample tasks among the smaller working groups (paper copies havebeen provided in the boxes at the tables)
Select a person from you small group to work with the computer (using the wiki and uploading/ downloading the documents) Begin by reviewing the embedded skills & the standard from which they were deconstructed
Add or modify these skills/ vocabulary with RED font ONLY
Tomorrow….
Is only a day away…. Annie
We will be picking back up where we have left off tomorrow. Select a good stopping point and upload your last domain. Be sure to label your paper copies of where your have left off and where you need to start.
