to parents, teachers, and the general public
Allows for collaboration with other states on best practices, instructional materials, and professional development
Reduces costs to the state8
Students with Special Needs
The CCSS provide an historic opportunity to improve access to rigorous academic content standards for students with disabilities and for the gifted.
Many experts in this area were involved in the development of these standards to meet IEP needs.9
English Learners
The CCSS articulate rigorous grade level expectations to prepare all students to be college and career ready, including English learners.

English Learners
The development of the ELA CCSS involved linguists and EL experts. And they had a huge impact on the language and vocabulary standards
The developers of the CCSS were the developers of ELD standards for the CCSS.

ELD Key Features Handout
Three English language proficiency levels: Emerging, Expanding, and Bridging;
Standards organized into three language modes: collaborative, interpretative and productive, and three categories under the heading learning about how English works: structuring cohesive texts, expanding and enriching ideas, and connecting and condensing ideas.
Change in Teaching and Learning
From predominantly teacher-directed instruction and teacher-talk student engagement, interaction, inquiry-based pedagogy
From each teacher responsible for isolated content every teacher a language teacher
From ELD as just a separate curriculum/part of the day ELD as dedicated curriculum + infusion of ELD standards across the curriculum
New Assessments for the 2013–14 School Year
Spring 2014: Smarter Balanced Field Test for English–language arts (ELA) and math in grades 3—8, and grade 11 (and a select sample in grades 9 and 10)
California Alternate Performance Assessment (CAPA) for ELA and math in grades 2 through 11
