5. Learning Goals:  Unpack Common Core Standards using the KUD (Know-Understand-Do) method.  Identify the components of “rigor” and a Common Core lesson.  Locate resources on the Okaloosa County Common Core Website applicable to a specific grade level or content area. Success Criteria: With your Common Core Team, develop an action plan regarding implementation of unpacking Common Core Standards. “Implementation!”

6. We’d appreciate it if:  There are no “Hogs and Logs”  Respect all opinions  Cell phones silenced

13. What is Rigor? (using a Double Entry Journal) 1. On your Double Entry Journal, consider a personal experience that was “rigorous” and put that experience on the left side in the top box. 2. On the right side, think of the experience. What MADE that experience rigorous? 2. Classroom Environment 3. Instruction

14. Waiting for Superman 1. After watching the video, consider one fact or quote that you found interesting. 2. Write that fact or quote on the Double Entry Journal in the second box. On the right side, explain what that fact or quote tells you about rigor. 3. Instruction

16. “Rethinking College Readiness” by David Conley 1. Step One – Chunking the Text 2. Step Two – From your text, list a few facts or quotes in the third box that seem interesting. 3. Step Three - On the right side, explain what that fact or quote tells you about rigor. “Chunking!”

17. What Does It Mean? College Readiness 2. Classroom Environment 3. Instruction

18. What Does It Mean? College Readiness The level of preparation in ELA/Math necessary to enroll and succeed without remediation for an Associate’s or Bachelor’s Degree -David Conley Director for Educational Policy Research University of Oregon “No remediation!”

19. What does it mean to be “rigorous”?  It is helpful to remember what rigor is not : Rigor is not a special program or curriculum for select students. We are not talking about students that are part of programs for the gifted. Nor are we discussing students in special magnet schools. Rigor is for ordinary students attending traditional public schools. Rigor is not about severity or hardship. Rigorous classrooms are both warm and challenging. Finally—and most important—rigor is not a measure of the quantity of content to be covered (endless repetition of chemical formulas or lists of vocabulary words). Rather, rigor is a measure of that content's quality. “Rigor!”

What does it mean to be “rigorous”?  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McDo9efGmys http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McDo9efGmys Watch the movie clip from “Lean on Me” and write down what you notice about the teacher’s presentation related to: 1.rigorous content 2.cognitive engagement with support 3.high expectation instruction 4.assessment and demonstration of learning

22. Definition of “RIGOR”

23. Claim: When looking for the elements of rigor, there must be a presence of ___________________________, ___________________________, and ___________________________. Support: Evidence: “Synthesis!” 1.Instruction

24. Identify desired results Determine acceptable evidence Plan learning experiences and instruction 1a, 1c, 1e, 1f

25. How does Backward Design Facilitate a Common Core Instructional Sequence? Establish Goals Based on Unpacked Standards Create Essential Questions Based on Standards Create Assessments Based on Standards Check to Ensure Assessments Align with Standards Create Learning Plan Aligned to Standards Students Take Assessment Based on Standards 1a, 1b, 1c, 1e, 1f, 3c, 3d

26. 1a, 1c, 1e

27. Why “unpack”??? Standards require a close read and analyze for meaning Standards are rarely taught in isolation Not all standards are equal in rigor 1a, 1c, 1e, 1f

28. KUD… What?? K.U.D.! K- Know U- Understand D- Do 1a, 1c, 1e, 1f

29. “Real life” KUD Know How do you know a child is ready to ride a bicycle without training wheels?  Handlebars  Pedal(ing)  Break(ing)  Steer(ing )  Both hands must be kept on the handlebars in order to steer the bicycle  Uses the handlebars to steer the bicycle in a logical direction Understand Do

30. Now You Try! “Real life” KUD How do you know a teenager is ready to drive a car alone? KnowUnderstandDo

31. What is the Difference Between Know, Understand, and Do? Know Facts Vocabulary Definitions Dates Places Understand I want students to understand that… Essential truths give meaning to topic Purposeful Has transfer power Allows students to investigate content on a variety of levels Enduring value Requires “uncoverage” Do Start with a verb NOT the whole activity Thinking skills Final outcome based on the standard, NOT an activity Students should grapple with the “UNDERSTAND” goals and how they apply to the “KNOW” goals 1a, 1c, 1e, 1f

33. KUD Template 1a, 1c, 1e, 1f

42. What Instruction is Needed Before Students are Ready for an RST? As a team…. 1. Analyze the middle school and/or high school RST task provided. 2. Using the instructional materials provided and your knowledge of the components of a Common Core lesson, develop a plan to get students ready to tackle this RST. * What types of lessons using the materials provided would be needed? *How would you construct close read lessons using these materials so they begin to “think like a scientist”? *What anchor charts/graphic organizers might needed? 1a, 1b, 1c, 1d, 1e, 1f
