Adopted by 45 States plus DC and U.S. Virgin Islands
California and the Common Core State Standards
Senate Bill 1 from the Fifth Extraordinary Session (SB X5 1):– established an Academic Content Standards
Commission (ACSC) to develop standards in mathematics and English–language arts
– stated that 85 percent of the standards were to consist of the CCSS with up to 15 percent additional material
– directed the State Board of Education (SBE) to adopt or reject recommendations of the ACSC
– Adopted August 2010

• College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor Standards are divided into four interrelated literacy strands.

Balanced Representation of Literary and Informational Text
2009 NAEP Reading Assessment: Distribution of literary and informational passages
Grade Literary Informational
4 50% 50%
8 45% 55%
12 30% 70%

ELA/Literacy “Shifts”
Shift #1 Increase Reading of Informational Text
Shift #2 Text Complexity
Shift #3 Academic Vocabulary
Shift #4 Text Based Answers
Shift #5 Increased Writing from Sources
Shift #6 Literacy Instruction in all Content Areas
10
ELA California additions (15% allowed)
• Formal presentations, Grades 1-12
• Penmanship, Grades 2-4
• Career and consumer documents for writing in Grade 8
• Analysis of text features in informational text, Grades 6-12
11
The Three Priorities
• Students will read sufficiently complex texts closely
• Students will extract information and gain knowledge from these texts
• Students will write clear arguments based on the information they have read
Common Core Standards for Mathematics
Two Types of Standards• Mathematical Practice (recurring
throughout the grades)
• Mathematical Content (different at each grade level)

Standards for Mathematical Content K-8
Organization of Grade Level standards
• Standards • Clusters • Domains
15
Math California additions (15% allowed)
• Calculus and AP Probability and Statistics• Operations and Algebraic Thinking additions in
Grades 2 through 5• Measurement and data additions in Grades 2• Grade 6--the Number System• 2 Options for Eighth Graders
– Algebra 1– Eighth Grade CC Math Standards– K-7 standards augmented to prepare for either
option
• Clearer grade-to-grade organization16
Grade 8 Mathematics
• The CCSS prepare students for Algebra 1 in grade 8.
• The CCSS also include a set of challenging grade 8 standards to prepare students for success in higher math, including Algebra 1.

Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC)
• There are two groups of states developing assessments1. Smarter Balanced Assessment
Consortium (SBAC)2. Partnership for Assessment of
Readiness of College and Careers (PARCC)
• In late 2011 California moved from PARCC to SBAC
A National Consortium of States
• 27 states representing 43% of K-12 students
• 21 governing, 6 advisory states
• Washington state is fiscal agent

The SBAC Goals
• To develop a set of comprehensive and innovative assessments for grades 3-8 and 11 in English language arts and mathematics aligned to the Common Core State Standards
• Students leave high school prepared for postsecondary success in college or a career through increased student learning and improved teaching
• The assessments shall be operational across Consortium states in the 2014-15 school year

Key Features: Computer Adaptive Testing
• Comprehensively assesses the breadth of the Common Core State Standards while minimizing test length
• Allows increased measurement precision relative to fixed form assessments; important for providing accurate growth estimates
• Testing experience is tailored to student ability as measured during the test
TOM TORLAKSONState Superintendent of Public Instruction
26
Key Features: Tailored, Online Reporting
• Supports access to information about student progress toward college and career readiness
• Allows for exchange of student performance history across districts and states
• Uses a Consortium-supported backbone, while individual states retain jurisdiction over access and appearance of online reports
• Links teachers to digital clearinghouse of formative materials
• Graphical display of learning progression status (interim assessment)

Sample Performance Task
• Phase 1/Day 1: Directions: Write an imaginary or real story telling about someone losing a tooth. Be sure to have a beginning, middle, and ending.
• Phase 2/Day 2: Students will hear selected read-aloud text. Directions: Using your notes, write two to four paragraphs describing and comparing different tooth traditions. Be sure to– (1) tell some things that are the same about the
traditions, – (2) tell some things that are different about the
traditions, and – (3) explain something interesting that you learned
OR tell about your tooth tradition.

Common Core State Standards: Implementation
• The State Board of Education (SBE) adopted the CCSS on 2010
• Last SBE mathematics adoption in 2007
• Last SBE English language arts (ELA) adoption in 2008
• New assessments scheduled for 2014–2015
• Next likely SBE adoption of materials in 2016 (Mathematics) and 2018 (ELA)
Implementation Update
• Assembly Bill 124 (Fuentes)– ELD Standards
• Senate Bill 140 (Lowenthal)– Supplemental Materials
• Assembly Bill 250 (Brownley)
33
Assembly Bill 250 (Brownley)
• Superintendent sponsored• Begins process for the development and
adoption of curriculum frameworks aligned to the Common Core State Standards
• Extends the operative date of the state’s assessment system by one year
• Creates professional learning modules
34
SLUSD Tentative Transition Plans:
• Mar 2011: We put out an Intro &FAQ• Apr 2011-Mar 2012: We waited for Sacramento to
finalize an implementation plan & for comprehensive resources to be ready
• Apr 2012: We are presenting this info to principals, BCC and school board (May 1)
• May 2012: Send team to CCSS Toolkit Training of Trainers Sessions #1and #2 through ACOE
• 2012-13 & beyond: Trainers use toolkit to present sessions
35
SLUSD FAQs:
• When are these new standards coming?• Why are we identifying essential standards if they are
changing?• What about Frameworks, Materials, Training and
Assessments?• Why are we making new assessments and getting trained on
materials?• If the new assessments are quarterly benchmarks will we
have two assessment systems?
36
SLUSD Impact in 2012-13:
• Ed Services, and especially C&I, staff will need to devote increasing amounts of time to the implementation
• Teacher trainings/task forces will require a combination of using staff meeting time, collaboration/PLC time and substitutes for release time
• We will need to evaluate our current instructional materials and identify supplementary materials if necessary
• Funding in 2012-13: Title II funds should be sufficient
37
SLUSD Impact in 2013-14 and beyond:
Continued from 2012-13:• Ed Services, and especially C&I staff, will need to devote
increasing amounts of time to the implementation• Teacher trainings/task forces will require a combination of using
staff meeting time, collaboration/PLC time and substitutes for release time
• Funding in 2013-14 and beyond: Title II funds may need to be supplemented
Additional Impact:• We will need to purchase identified supplementary materials • Funding in 2013-14 and beyond: Lottery funds and the $200,000
set aside from Tier 3 IMFRP may need to be supplemented by additional IMFRP funds.
