3. Strategic Priorities
Common Core: By SY all students will have access to high quality Common Core-aligned curricula as defined by CPS Framework for Content Standards in literacy and mathematics. Framework for Teaching: By SY all educators will be supported by a clear vision for effective instruction as defined by the CPS Framework for Teaching. Full School Day: By SY all students will have access to core academics, intervention, and enrichment through a 7 hour school day

5. Implementation in SY12 Office of Instruction Scope Objectives
Network Team PD
All Networks
Focus on daily lessons and unit planning in teacher teams using the CCSS
Develop and refine a differentiated delivery mechanism (or Network Theory of Action) for building capacity on the CCSS with portfolio of schools
ILT PD
All schools, traditional and charter/contract/AUSL
Focus on unit planning (unpacking standards, performance assessment development, unit development)
Implement necessary ILT and TT structures to make the shift to CCSS possible
Early Adopters
60 schools
Focus on development, implementation, and refinement of unit plans (unpacking standards, performance assessment development, unit development)
Development of exemplars
Teacher Leader PLC
~30 teachers each for Literacy and Math
Develop the year-long CCSS-aligned Literacy and Mathematics Content Frameworks

8. Instructional Materials Guidance SY12
DO NOT rush to buy anything that is branded “Common Core Approved.”
This Spring
-Audit existing nonfiction text sets
-See CCSS Appendix B for exemplars
This Summer
-Purchase supplemental texts to support unit planning
Next Year
-Implement use of supplemental texts
-Audit quality of math core materials
Office of Instruction

9. Outcomes: School Year ‘13
Teachers will begin implementation of the Common Core State Standards, using the Literacy Content Framework (K- 10) and the Mathematics Content Framework and Bridge Plan (6-10)
Administrators and teachers will understand and apply the key instructional shifts required of the CCSS
Teachers will understand how to use new instructional materials and assessments and make them accessible to all learners

10. Outcomes: Summer SY12 Curriculum planning Facilitation
ELA: summer training for teacher leaders on building curriculum maps and unit plans, aligned to the Literacy Content Framework. Dept of Literacy available for collaboration.
Math: summer training for teacher leaders on designing CCSS-aligned math tasks in line with the Math Content Framework
Facilitation
ELA and Math: training for teachers on how to facilitate learning with colleagues

12. CCSS Instructional Shifts
Literacy
(Across Content Areas)
Regular practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary
Building knowledge through content-rich informational text
Reading and writing grounded in evidence from text
Mathematics
Focus on critical areas to develop deep conceptual understanding and procedural fluency
Integrate the mathematical practice standards throughout instruction
Maintain coherence and continuity to link learning within and across grades
