So what’s at the Core? HTTP://WWW.CORESTANDARDS.ORG/OTHER-RESOURCES/KEY-SHIFTS-IN- ENGLISH-LANGUAGE-ARTS/

Three Shifts in ELA with Common Core
5
Shift One How have you seen this in the books your students are bringing home? How can you help at home?
6
Shift Two Reading and Writing Grounded in Text Based Evidence Where in the text did you see that? Where did the author say that? Show me the words that made you think that. What is happening in this paragraph?
7
Shift Three: Regular practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary

What are we doing at HCS to help your students? Close Reading

What are the steps to a Close Read?

What can you do at home? Read with your child- Do a Close Read !! Ask open-ended questions after reading

Math

Why does Math look so different? Math ThenMath Now
17
Math Reasoning for a New Age Many of us learned mathematics as a set of disconnected rules, facts, and procedures. The challenge is to foster true numerical reasoning by getting students to go beyond the memorized rules and procedures. https://youtu.be/0RPAVweO07Q
18
Let’s Explore a Task Draw a game piece out of your bucket, don’t let your partner see Each player will tell the partner the total value of their coins. Players will take turns asking each other yes/no questions to try to solve what coins you have, and how many coins you have.
19
How do we foster reasoning? FOCUS: Less standards COHERENCE: More Connections RIGOR: Higher Order Thinking

“Our previous assessment, the CRCT, set some of the lowest expectations for student proficiency in the nation, and that cannot continue. Georgia Milestones sets higher standards for our students and evens the playing field with the rest of the nation – and that’s essential if our students are going to succeed in college and their chosen careers, both of which are nationally competitive arenas. We will continue to increase our supports for both students and teachers to ensure this test is more meaningful for all involved.” -Richard Woods, State School Superintendent Information on this slide was found within the GaDOE Press Release, “First Georgia Milestones test results released" Why has our test changed?

Math Constructed Response: Noteworthy Trends For multistep processes, students were sometimes able to start the process correctly but were unsure how to complete the process. Students may not know key math terms or confuses terms (e.g., complimentary vs. supplementary; or diameter vs. radius) When asked to provide an explanation, students sometimes tended to restate the information given. Students used the wrong operation – when in doubt, add. Students do not answer the question that is asked: – Example: the prompt provides a scenario and asks for the probability of two different outcomes both occurring; the students provides the two individual probabilities instead. Information on this slide were found with the GaDOE Assessment Presentation, "GACIS Presentation, September 2015"

General Testing Parameters
35
Georgia Milestones: General Testing Parameters ELA will consist of 3 sections Section 3 will focus mainly on writing GSE-aligned beginning with Winter 2015 Mathematics will consist of 2 sections including a short no-calculator sub-section in grades 6-high school – located at the beginning of Section 1 GSE-aligned beginning with Winter 2015 Science will consist of 2 sections Social Studies will consist of 2 sections
38
Georgia Milestones General Test Parameters: Mathematics Criterion-Referenced Total Number of Items: 53 / Total Number of Points: 58 Breakdown by Item Type: – 50 Selected Response (worth 1 point each; 10 of which are aligned NRT) – 2 Constructed Response (worth 2 points each) – 1 Constructed Response (worth 4 points) Norm-Referenced – Total Number of Items: 20 (10 of which contribute to CR score) Embedded Field Test – Total field test items: 10 Total number of items taken by each student: 73

Achievement Levels Beginning Learners do not yet demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students need substantial academic support to be prepared for the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness. Developing Learners demonstrate partial proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students need additional academic support to ensure success in the next grade level or course and to be on track for college and career readiness. Proficient Learners demonstrate proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are prepared for the next grade level or course and are on track for college and career readiness. Distinguished Learners demonstrate advanced proficiency in the knowledge and skills necessary at this grade level/course of learning, as specified in Georgia’s content standards. The students are well prepared for the next grade level or course and are well prepared for college and career readiness.
42
Promotion/Retention Status Determines promotion/retention status in grade 3 (reading only), grade 5 (reading and mathematics), and grade 8 (reading and mathematics) – Reading: a student who has a Below Grade Level Reading status will require remediation and retesting in ELA – Mathematics: a student who is classified as a Beginning Learner will require remediation and retesting in mathematics
