NThe Common Core State Standards Initiative - BackgroundBeginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English-language arts (ELA) and mathematics standards.
States agreed to participate in the development process, provide input on drafts, and consider eventual adoption.Signing MOA did not require commitment to adopt.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a state-led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) with assistance from Project Achieve, ACT and the College Board (SAT). O

Why Common Core State Standards? Preparation: The standards articulate college- and career-
readiness. They will help ensure students acquire the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in post-secondary education and training.
Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked. Common standards will help ensure our students are globally competitive.
Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear. Clearer standards help students (and parents and teachers) understand what is expected of them.

Why Common Core State Standards?, cont. Equity: Expectations are consistent for all – and not dependent
on a student’s state of residence. States have time to consider what state-specific additions to the
standards might look like
Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools including textbooks, professional development, common assessments and other materials.
Opportunities for ALIGNED and CONNECTED SYSTEMS:• “Common standards” is a common thread among current and
evolving national initiatives and opportunities• Standards – Instruction – Assessment

Common Core State Standards Design
Building on the strength of current standards across many states, the CCSS are designed to be:
Focused, coherent, clear and rigorous
Internationally benchmarked
Anchored in college and career readiness*
Evidence and research based
*Ready for first-year credit-bearing, postsecondary coursework in mathematics and English without the need for remediation.

Intentional Design Limitations
What the Standards do NOT define:
How teachers should teach All that can or should be taught The nature of advanced work beyond the core The interventions needed for students well below grade level The full range of support for English language learners and
students with special needs Everything needed to be college and career ready

Common Core Standards for Mathematics
Grade-Level Standards K-8 grade-by-grade standards organized by domain 9-12 high school standards organized by conceptual categories
(Number & Quantity, Algebra, Functions, Modeling, Geometry, Statistics & Probability) Course progressions included in Appendices
Some standards go beyond “career and college readiness level” (e.g., STEM concepts, denoted by “+”) are a thread throughout but go beyond what all students will need to know and at high school may lead to a 4th year of math
Standards for Mathematical Practice Describe mathematical “habits of mind” Standards for mathematical proficiency: reasoning, problem
solving, modeling, decision making, and engagement Carry across grade levels and connect with content standards in
each grade

System Highlights
Summative assessments using online computer adaptive technologies• Efficiently provide accurate measurement of all students, across the
spectrum of knowledge and skills• Incorporate adaptive precision into performance tasks and events• Will assess full range of CCSS in English language arts and
mathematics• Describe both current achievement and growth across time,
showing progress toward college- and career-readiness• Scores can be reliably used for state-to-state comparability, with
standards set against research-based benchmarks • The option of giving the summative tests twice a year.

Optional interim/benchmark and formative assessments • Are aligned to and reported on the same scale as the summative
assessments• Help identify specific needs of each student, so teachers can provide
appropriate, targeted instructional assistance• Incorporate significant involvement of teachers in item and task
design and scoring• Are non-secure and fully accessible for use in instruction and
professional development activities • Provide students and teachers with clear examples of the expected
performance on common standards.

Benefits and efficiencies from “economies of scale” due to a multi-state consortium • Cost savings: SMARTER English language arts/mathematics estimated
at ~$21 per student (below current for almost all SBAC states) [Interim/benchmark & formative an additional ~$7 per student]
• Shared interoperable open source software platforms: Item generation, item banking, and adaptive testing no longer exclusive property of vendors
• Common, agreed-upon protocols for accommodations for students with disabilities and ELL students.

NWhat does this mean for Washington State’s Learning Goals?
The four State Learning Goals from the 1993 Basic Education Act remain intact.
1. Read with comprehension, write effectively, and communicate successfully in a variety of ways and settings and with a variety of audiences;
2. Know and apply the core concepts and principles of mathematics; social, physical, and life sciences; civics and history, including different cultures and participation in representative government; geography; arts; and health and fitness;
3. Think analytically, logically, and creatively, and to integrate different experiences and knowledge to form reasoned judgments and solve problems; and
4. Understand the importance of work and finance and how performance, effort, and decisions directly affect future career and educational opportunities.

NWhat does this mean for Washington’s existing Learning Standards?
Washington’s current Learning Standards in all subjects should continue to be implemented in classrooms. Current state assessments will align with these standards through
the 2013-14 school year.
If the Common Core State English language arts and mathematics standards are formally adopted in WA, They would be phased in over 2 years to replace WA’s current
reading, writing, and mathematics standards by the 2014-15 year.

Adoption ≠ Implementation
State Superintendent has authority to adopt –
• Following collaboration, input, and buy-in from key partners and stakeholder groups (State Board, Legislature, state curriculum advisors, content experts, etc.)
When considering adoption, States must adopt 100% of the CCSS, but may adopt additional standards (“up to” 15%)
• States responsible for setting the criteria and assessing the additions
Once adopted, implementation would be phased in over several school years; assessment would follow in 2014-15 school year

What does “adding to the standards” mean?
Up to states to define: Is there key content that is present in existing state standards that
does not exist in the Common Core?o Is the missing content required by state laws/regulations to include in
the standards? Are there other compelling reasons to add content? What are the implications of adding content?
How will this affect assessment? How much will this affect commonality with other states? Does it dilute the standards? Impact on the classroom?
“Common-sense guideline” to meet specific state needs Key factor in CCS development: “clear and focused” standards Literal interpretation by states would undermine the purpose of the
initiative

What are other states doing?
Adopting “as-is”
Considering required content for their states
Considering adding narrative to frame documents for the state, not adding content

Final Notes… The promise of the Common Core State Standards
These Standards are not intended to be new names for old ways of doing business.
They are a call to take the next step. It is time for states to work together to build on lessons learned from two decades of standards based reforms.
It is time to recognize that standards are not just promises to our children, but promises we intend to keep.
