The Structure is the Standardsby Phil Daro, Bill McCallum, Jason Zimba

Once you have read the article, please answer the questions below with an elbow partner.

1.How do the authors describe the standards? Provide evidence in the text.

2.How were the Common Core State Standards developed? Point to evidence in the text.

3.Why did they use the word “structure” in the title? Discuss with your elbow partner.

Goals Planning Revisit and complete your Goals Planning

Document 2011-2012 What were the results?

What evidence do you have to support this? Did you set realistic goals?

Why or why not?

Welcome Administrators

Looking Back: Where have we been? Create a list of resources, workshops, or other

experiences that have guided your RTTT work this year, as it applies to mathematics.

From this list, identify the three that have been the most prevalent.

From the list, identify one that you would benefit from spending more time with.

Looking Forward: Where are we going? Based upon your work throughout the

transition, identify what future focus is needed for successful implementation of RTTT initiatives as it relates to mathematics.

What role will Math Coaches play in this work?

Latest RTTT News and Resources Sample PARCC assessment items

10 per grade level

Latest RTTT News and Resources Scope and Sequence Modules

Latest RTTT News and Resources NYS CC Ambassador Program

To create common language and a common understanding

Organizations will nominate participants Paired with an instructional coach in one particular

area of the standards you wish to improve upon 5 days in Albany – August 13th – 17th

4 follow up days in Albany throughout school year Possible videotaping to show progression of

development Funding for training through NTI

Illustrative Mathematics Project The tasks are written by a variety of people:

teachers, educators, mathematicians. Some are adapted from existing tasks (with permission).

The goal is to have a set of tasks for each standard that: Illuminate the central meaning of the standard

and also show connections with other standards; Clarify what is familiar about the standard and

what is new with the Common Core; Include both teaching and assessment tasks; Reflect the full range of difficulty expected.

2011-2012 Goal Review Review CCSS and Leadership goals that were

set last spring Identify and celebrate areas of success Identify hurdles that may have prevented

success How could this have been approached differently?

2012-2013 Goal Planning What RTTT elements are critical to support

within your grade/building/district?

What opportunities for leadership growth do you envision?

Goals Planning Document Goal: What do you hope to accomplish? Plan of action: How will you accomplish your

goal? Steps to accomplish this action: What are the

specific tasks or activities necessary for your success?

Resources: What will you need to be successful? Time frame: When will this action occur? Evidence of attainment: How will you know you

have reached your goal? Results: (To be completed in Spring 2013)

What are the biggest needs of the Math Coaches Network for 2012-

2013?

Potential Resources for 2012-2013

Response to Intervention in Math Chapter 10: Next Steps in the RtI Process

1. Find or create an assessment system that allows for screening and progress monitoring.

2. Implement Tier 1 instruction with fidelity. 3. Decide on an intervention system. 4. Review the research on interventions. 5. Decide what your Tier 3 is meant to be. 6. Review the effectiveness using student data.

How do we connect RTTT initiatives with the RtI process?
