Instructional Shifts in
Common Core Math Standards
Instructional Shifts in
Mathematics
• FOCUS – The standards focus in on key
content skills and practices at each grade
level
• COHERENCE – content in the standards
builds across the grades and major topics
are linked within the grades
• RIGOR – the standards highlight
conceptual understanding, procedural skill,

“2014-15 is not really the
finish line, but only the first
leg in a longer relay race to
create a next generation
teaching, learning and
assessment system that
prepare all students for a
strong future and are worthy
of our children, teachers and
schools.”
Will the Archdiocese of
Baltimore use PARCC?

• Collaborative directed PD based on needs; teacher break out sessions to share
instructional strategies (January 3)
• Spring 2014-Collaborative PD day
• Attend conferences , participate in webinars

Common Core and Catholic
Identity Initiative (CCCII)
• A national working group has begun the
Common Core Catholic Identity Initiative (CCCII)
to develop and disseminate resources and
guidelines to assist Catholic elementary and
secondary schools in integrating elements of
Catholic identity (Catholic values, Scripture,
Church social teachings, encyclicals, etc.) into
curriculum and instruction based on the
Common Core State Standards.
Common Core and Catholic
Identity Initiative (CCCII)
• The initial phase of CCCII focuses on K-8
English/Language Arts/ Literacy.
Resources for other subjects and for 9-12
curriculum will be developed in later
phases.
