GOALS FOR THE PROJECT
A common understanding of the Common Core State Standards and their implications for content and process
Regional maps for grades K-2 Collaboration on teaching strategies
and resources
Outline for Implementation
Districts invited to send team of teachers (K, 1st , 2nd)
Five half days planned during the school year
Two full days during the summer Fifteen districts responded sending a
total of approximately 60 teachers and curriculum coordinators

Outcomes for First Half DayFebruary 11
Common understanding of the CCSS Common understanding of the
implications for teaching required by the eight practices
Common understanding of what it takes to “Teach so Students Remember”

INTRODUCTIONS:
•Goal Setting•NYS Timeline for implementation•Article “Understanding the K-12 Common Core State Standard”
COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS:
•How to read the CCSS•Mathematical practices•Layout of the curriculum•Glossary and reference tables
TRANSITION MATERIALS:
•NYS Standards to CCSS•CCSS to NYS Standards
REVISIT MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES – not just “what” we teach but “how” we teach it
HOW TO TEACH SO STUDENTS REMEMBER
PREPARATION FOR FUTURE WORK:
•Reread CCSS for your grade level in paragraph form•Bring one activity, lesson, strategy, etc. to model the mathematical practice you have been assigned•What are the common headings we want to use for our curriculum maps?
Outcomes for Second Half Day March 21
Share the readings for “How to Teach so Students Remember”
Revisit the 8 Mathematical Practices Curriculum Mapping “Understanding by
Design” Set up Google accounts Consensus on headings for common
maps9

Review work from 2/2
•Goal Setting•Today’s goals
How to Teach So Students Remember:
•Groups prepare presentations•Present •Summary of the 7 R’s
Common Core State Standards:
•Discuss the changes involved•What questions do you still have?
REVISIT MATHEMATICAL PRACTICES – not just “what” we teach but “how” we teach it
•Share the teaching ideas associated with the practice your district was assigned
Curriculum maps:
•“Backward Design” as it relates to curriculum mapping – presentation by Jane King•Look at sample maps•What headings do we want to use?•Look at the outline for your grade level
PREPARATION FOR FUTURE WORK:
•Be prepared to begin writing maps on April 25
Outcomes for Third Half DayApril 25
Review rationale for regional maps Review Mathematical Practices and
how they need to be incorporated into the maps
Understand the instructional shifts necessary for “Accessible Mathematics”
Begin the writing process within grade levels

April 25, 2011 A G E N D A Introduce Irene “Sam” Jovell and update her on our progress Goals of the ProjectWhat have we accomplished
Revisit the Mathematical Practices How do teachers make these happen?What teacher behaviors foster these practices? Curriculum Maps Common understand of the design and headingsModels for grades K, 1st, 2nd as presented by Sam Curriculum writing Use google accounts to access mapsWork within grade level to begin writing September and October mapsMaps will be saved in the google accounts as a “view” only document Preparation for future work Read chapter assigned for “Accessible Mathematics”Gail & Sam schedule publishers for presentations at June meetingNext meeting Friday, May 27Future meetings: Friday, June 17
Friday, July 8Friday, August 19
Outcome for Fourth Half Day
Concentrated time used to continue writing curriculum maps within grade level groups
14
Future of the Project
June meeting to have presentation of materials and how they correlate to the CCSS
July and August full days to be used to complete the writing of the maps
Continue to share “best” practices through collaboration
