Group Assignment
Follow this link to a rubric from the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), designed to gauge district progress towards alignment with the CCSS:
Use this rubric to assess where your district is in terms of implementation of frameworks. Be sure to refer to the ‘Evidence to Look For’ section in order to support your group’s assessment. If you are in a group with any kind of responsibility for aligning the curriculum, your group should work through the CCSSO rubric and discuss next steps/enhancements to the current implementation plan.
Individual Assignment
Review your notes from this module about aligning curriculum with the changing standards. Describe an example of changes to your district curriculum, or changes you have already implemented or would like to implement in your own teaching.
Begin a Know-Wonder-Learn chart about how you think the shifts will affect your teaching. You will have opportunities to update this chart as you work through the Modules.
