Common Core State Standards Mathematics CCSSM 9/20/116 Each state adopting the common core either directly or by fully aligning its state standards may do so in accordance with current state timelines for standards adoption not to exceed three (3) years. States that choose to align their standards to the common core standards accept 100% of the core. States may add additional standards. Common Core Development

Common Core State Standards Mathematics CCSSM 9/20/119 Standards for Mathematical Practice “Proficient students expect mathematics to make sense. They take an active stance in solving mathematical problems. When faced with a non-routine problem, they have the courage to plunge in and try something, and they have the procedural and conceptual tools to carry through. They are experimenters and inventors, and can adapt known strategies to new problems. They think strategically.”

Common Core State Standards Mathematics CCSSM 9/20/1110 Section name 24pt bold Standards for Mathematical Practice 2 1.Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them. 2.Reason abstractly and quantitatively. 3.Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others. 4.Model with mathematics. 5.Use appropriate tools strategically. 6.Attend to precision. 7.Look for and make use of structure. 8.Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning.

Common Core State Standards Mathematics CCSSM 9/20/1112 Common Core State Standards Grade State Standard Grade 7 Solve real-life mathematical problems using numerical algebraic expressions and equations. Solve multi-step real-life and mathematical problems posed with positive and negative rational numbers in any form (whole numbers, fractions, and decimals), using tools strategically. Apply properties of operations to calculate with numbers in any form; convert between forms as appropriate; and assess the reasonableness of answers using mental computation and estimation strategies. (Common Core State Standard Initiative 2010b) Algebra Translate two-step verbal expressions into algebraic expressions Solve multi-step verbal expressions by combining like terms, using the distributive property, or moving variable to one side of the equation.

Rhode Island has adopted the Common Core Standards, what is next? School Year RIDE is confident that the Common Core maintains the rigor and high expectations that have been set for our students through the Rhode Island Grade Level/Span Expectations (GLEs/GSEs). The transition to curriculum and instruction that is fully aligned to the Common Core Standards will occur over several years. For the academic year 2010 ‐ 2011, Rhode Island schools will continue to provide instruction and assessment aligned to the Rhode Island GLE/GSEs. RIDE will continue to provide professional development opportunities for educators to study the standards and will develop a transition plan to ensure that all schools are fully implementing a curriculum that is aligned with the Common Core standards prior to the first assessment based on the Common Core Standards during the 2014 ‐ 2015 school year.

Common Core Standards for Math: Designing High School Math Courses While the focus of this document (CCSSM) is on organizing the Standards for Mathematical Content into model pathways to college and career readiness, the content standards must also be connected to the Standards for Mathematical Practice to ensure that the skills needed for later success are developed. In particular, Modeling (defined by a * in the CCSS) is defined as both a conceptual category for high school mathematics and a mathematical practice and is an important avenue for motivating students to study math, for building their understanding of math, and for preparing them for future success. Development of the pathways into instructional programs will require careful attention to modeling and mathematical practices. Assessments based on these pathways should reflect both the content and mathematical practices standards. © 2011 EngageNY Common Core State Standards Mathematics CCSSM 9/20/1119
