Common Core Basics
The document discusses the Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics. It aims to debunk 7 myths about the standards, including that they lower standards, focus only on skills, and are too vague. It provides details on the standards for reading, writing, speaking/listening in ELA and content/practices in math. It emphasizes building foundational skills, preparing students for algebra, and using real-world examples. The speaker encourages teachers to integrate the mathematical practices into their own classrooms.

Editor's Notes
- #4 Adopted August 2010Consistency and clarityReal worldCareer and college readinessAssessing states and territories on the same standards… allows for easier comparison and helps us identify best practices more successfully
- #30 RestructuredK-5 solid foundation in whole numbers, computation, fractions, decimals… build the foundation to allow more success later with more demanding math concepts
- #31 Rigorous middle school 6-7 to prepare students for algebra in 8th grade Built upon from kindergarten
- #32 HS standards focus on mathematical reasoning in real world contextCareer and college ready skills
- #33 Not just know content, but how to think mathematically and apply that knowledge to unknown problems
- #43 85% instructional timefocus on curriculum and not textbook helps you identify higher order skills to teach2014-2015 school year: assessment over the CC
