CCSS Assessments Presenter: Dr. Cindy Thomas

Session Objectives: Who developed the new CCSS assessment? What types of questions are on the math assessment? How can I prepare myself? How can I prepare my students?

New Comprehensive Assessment Facts: Two newly formed state consortia - Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (SBAC) Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) * A warded Race to the Top grants to develop assessment systems that are aligned with the CCSS. U.S. Dept. of Ed!

PARCC replaces Second Edition (MCT2) in grades 3-8 Replaces (SATP2) for English II and Algebra I. Students will continue to take current SATP2 tests in U.S. History and Science. New Comprehensive Assessment Facts continued:

What shift in instructional strategies or activities will you implement to ensure your students are adequately prepared for the new CCSS assessment? What prior knowledge and skills are needed by students in order for them to be successful when taking the new CCSS assessment? Essential Question s:

Flows Leading to Algebra

PARCC Assessments will include: ★ Diagnostic and Midyear Assessments (both optional) ★ Performance based assessments (eoy) ★ End of year or Summative assessments (eoy) ★ Technology-enhanced items ★ Timely data that will support teachers to meet the needs of their current students

The following are the key shifts in instruction called for by the Common Core: Greater focus on fewer topics. Coherence: Linking topics and thinking across grades. Rigor: Students are able to understand concepts, procedures and application with equal force.
