ESD 113 Superintendents’ Meeting Sept 26, 2012 Jessica Vavrus, OSPI Assistant Superintendent for Teaching and Learning Agenda CCSS timeline and content shifts CCSS implementation guidance and supports Assessment changes and recommendations ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 Superintendent Dorn’s Priorities 2011-2014 OSPI’s Mission: To provide funding, resources, tools, data and technical assistance to educators so that they can help students to be successful in our public schools and in college and careers. Meet our Constitutional Obligation to Fully-fund our Public Schools Improve Achievement for ALL Students 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Reduce the opportunity gap Reduce the dropout rate Increase STEM opportunities Provide additional student supports Improve our Student Assessment System Expand Career and Technical Education (CTE) Expand and Enhance Early Learning Opportunities ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 Our Context: Washington State Learning Standards (aka…EALRs, GLEs, etc.) Washington’s Reading (2005), Writing (2005) and Math (2008) Standards Common Core State Standards for English Language Arts and Mathematics Adopted July, 2011 Assessed 2014-15 Washington’s Science Standards (2009) Washington’s Learning Standards in… Social Studies The Arts Health and Fitness World Languages Current Standards Continue as WA Considers the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS) NGSS Final Spring 2013 Adoption may occur in Jan/Feb 2014. Assessment of NGSS 2016-17, more likely 2017-18. Current Standards Continue Intentional connections will be made across subjects focused on building literacy skills across content areas CCSS Implementation Timeline 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 Phase 1: CCSS Exploration Phase 2: Build Awareness & Begin Building Statewide Capacity Phase 3: Build State & District Capacity and Classroom Transitions Phase 4: Statewide Application and Assessment Ongoing: Statewide Coordination and Collaboration to Support Implementation ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 2013-14 2014-15 Our guiding beliefs and approach for CCSS Implementation in WA 2-Prongs: 1. The What: Content Shifts (for students and educators) Belief that past standards implementation efforts have provided a strong foundation on which to build for CCSS; HOWEVER there are shifts that need to be attended to in the content. The How: System “Remodeling” 2. Belief that successful CCSS implementation will not take place top down or bottom up – it must be “both, and…” Belief that districts and communities across the state have the conditions and commitment present to engage wholly in this work. Professional learning systems are critical ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 The “What”: ELA and Math Content Shifts Shifts in ELA 1. Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction and informational texts in addition to literature 2. Reading and writing grounded in evidence from the text 3. Regular practice with complex text and its academic vocabulary These apply to content area (social studies, science, and technical subject) teachers as well as to English teachers. Shifts in Mathematics 1. Focus: 2-3 topics focused on deeply in each grade 2. Coherence: Concepts logically connected from one grade to the next and linked to other major topics within the grade 3. Rigor: Fluency with arithmetic, application of knowledge to real world situations, and deep understanding of mathematical concepts ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 1. What do all students need to know and be able to do as a result of the CCSS? 2. What do the adults in the system need to know and be able to do to support all students? 8 2012-13 CCSS Systems Webinar.Part 1.9/12/12 3. How do we design a professional learning system to support them? Washington PLUS… • School Districts (every size!) • Higher Education • Statewide Education and Educator Content Associations • Private Partners ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 CCSS Statewide Supports Opportunities and Resources Resources for Regional/Local CCSS Awareness Activities OSPI CCSS Web Site http://www.k12.wa.us/CoreStandards/Resources.aspx CCSS Implementation Planning Resources - CCSS District Implementation Network Participants - Implementation Planning Resources http://www.k12.wa.us/CoreStandards/DistrictProject.aspx Content-Specific Professional Learning Materials http://www.k12.wa.us/CoreStandards/ProfDev.aspx CCSS Professional Learning Opportunities – Digging Deeper - Offered through all 9 ESDs - Will build on and into existing work of ESDs in the content areas http://www.k12.wa.us/CoreStandards/UpdatesEvents.aspx ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 WA 3-Year Transition Plans and Standards Comparisons K 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9-10 11-12 Foundational Skills: Print Concepts & Phonological Awareness Foundational Skills: Phonics & Word Recognition, Fluency Reading Literature & Informational text, including literary nonfiction: Balance K-5 = 50% literature* & 50%* informational text Writing Standards: Balance of Text Types: grades 4 – opinion = 30%; information = 35%; narrative = 35% Reading Literature – stories, drama, poetry: Balance grade 6-8 = 45%* Balance gr. 9-12 = 30%* Reading informational, including literary nonfiction: Balance 6-8 = 55%* Balance gr. 9-12 = 70%* Literacy (Reading) in History/Social Studies, Science, and Other Technical Subjects Literacy (Writing) in History/Social Studies, Science, and Other Technical Subjects: Grade 8 – argument = 35%; information = 35%; narrative = 30% Grade 12 – argument = 40%; information = 40%; narrative = 20% Speaking & Listening Standards Language Standards, including vocabulary acquisition and use English Language Arts Major Shifts 1. Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction. 2. Reading, writing, and speaking grounded in evidence from text, both literary and informational.ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 3. Regular practice with complex text and its academic language More Supports Opportunities and Resources CCSS Statewide Symposia for District Teams - Support shared learning and build readiness to begin implementation - Districts share and learn from each other - At least one in each ESD region starting in November/December 2012-13 Schedule to be Announced in late September Statewide CCSS Collaborations - Annual Statewide Conferences - Professional Learning Educator Membership Associations - Publisher Representatives OSPI CCSS Quarterly Webinar Series All webinars offer new information and resources related to WA state transition plans, and include connections with the Smarter Balanced Assessment System ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 Where to Start? FIRST: Phase 1 - CCSS Exploration and Awareness Among… District leaders and leadership teams Communities, parents, school boards Building leaders Immerse yourself in and learn about… The WHY - The background and vision of the CCSS The WHAT - The major CCSS shifts in ELA and Math The HOW – Our state’s approach toward supporting implementation Emerging resources and support systems ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 NEXT: Consider Phase 2 within your District and Community Context Start the transition by Setting the Course! Identify a core group of leaders as a lead CCSS implementation team Establish a shared vision that will guide CCSS implementation with all students and educators – What will it mean for your district/building and community? Developing District-Specific CCSS Implementation Plans Use the CCSS District Readiness Assessment to inform transition planning Establish short and long term goals to begin moving forward ESD 113 Superintendent's Meeting 9/26/12 What about instructional materials?
