Today’s Goals:• To have a clear vision of
how the CCSS and their associated practices can be a benefit and/or a challenge for ESS students.
• To acquire tools to support the CCSS transition for all students.
• To see how effective planning and RtI framing can address not only the needs of ESS students, but ALL students.
• To consider how to better coordinate the efforts of ESS coordinators and coaches.
Today’s Assessments:• To have a clear vision of
how the CCSS and their associated practices can be a benefit and/or a challenge for ESS students (KWL chart)
• To acquire tools to support the CCSS transition for all students. (walkthrough video analysis)
• To see how effective planning and RtI framing can address not only the needs of ESS students, but ALL students.(Planning analysis)
• To evaluate the needs of our teachers and consider how to better coordinate the efforts of ESS coordinators and coaches.(Leona FAQ activity and Data Dialogue)
Common Core Transition: K-W-L+
What do you already know about the full transition to the Common Core?
What do you want to know about the full transition to the Common Core?
What did you learn today about the full transition to the Common Core?
What concerns do you have about this ‘flipped’ approach to teaching?
Common Core Transition: K-W-L+
The Common Core Transition:

AZ to CCSS: Grade 3 Standards Comparison
AZ Standard• 3S1C6.PO4 Answer clarifying questions in order to comprehend text.
CCSS Standard• 3.RI.1Ask and answer
questions to demonstrate understanding of a text, referring explicitly to the text as the basis for the answers.
• 3.RI.2 Determine the main idea of a text; recount the key details and explain how they support the main idea.
• 3.RI.10 (Read and comprehend informational texts…)
AZ to CCSS:Grade 3 Math Standards
AZ Standard• 3S1C1.6Compare and order benchmark fractions
CCSS Standard• For Mathematical Content:
3.NF.2 Understand a fraction as a number on the number line; represent fractions on a number line diagram.
• For Mathematical Practice: MP.7 (Look for and make use of structure) and MP.5 (Use appropriate tools strategically)
Big Picture Shifts:ELA Shifts:• Increasing knowledge
through content-rich non-fiction
• RWS grounded in EVIDENCE
• Regular practice with complex texts and academic language
Math Shifts:• More focused standards• Vertical coherence• RIGOR and TYPE of
STUDENT ACTIVITIES that pursue conceptual understanding and application (not just fluency and procedural skill)
Shifts in Inquiry:The Answer is Where We Start!
WHY?HOW DO YOU KNOW?
CONVINCE ME!!DID ANYONE DO OR SEE IT DIFFERENTLY?
EXPLAIN THAT TO ME.WHAT EVIDENCE CAN YOU OFFER TO SUPPORT
THAT?
Shifts in Practice:Peer-to-Peer Expectations
WORKING IN PAIRS OR GROUPS (50%-60%)PRESENTING WORK AND IDEAS
CRITIQUING PEER WORK AND IDEAS CONSTRUCIVELY
USING ACADEMIC LANGUAGE
Shifts in Delivery:Removing the Scaffold

Planning Analysis• Based on a review of the four samples
provided, how can coaches and coordinators help teachers be more successful planners for ESS success?
• What steps would this require with your administration? With training? With coaches?

Special Education“Special education is specially designed instruction, at no cost to the
parents, to meet the unique needs of a child with a disability.”
“Special Education” is not a place, but instruction and supports to meet a student’s needs—it can be delivered across a wide range of settings
Specially designed instruction means adapting, as appropriate to the needs of an eligible child under this part, the content, methodology, or delivery of instruction—(i) To address the unique needs of the child that result from the child’s disability; and(ii) To ensure access of the child to the general curriculum, so that the child can meet the educational standards within the jurisdiction of the public agency that apply to all children. [§300.39(b)(3)]

Some FAQs on SPED grading:
Can a ESS student earn an A?Can an ESS student earn an F?
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
How can I give them credit when my ESS student has not done the same work as the rest of the

I am a 2nd grade teacher the class has 20 spelling words every week. I have a student that only has 10 words and gets and average 8 of the right and another student that only have 5
words and gets 3 of them right. Should I give them a percentage grade? Or at this point should I just give them k-
1st grade spelling words altogether?
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
I have an incredibly auditory student who is classified ED. In history class, I asked students to write a report on Spartans. This student refused to write and refused to give an oral presentation. I found paperclips and other materials and told the student to make a Spartan.

assignments?
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
How can I justify passing him if he doesn’t complete my final project (senior project huge portfolio)? All of it is a necessary component
toward grad requirements.
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
If she’s ADHD, why can’t she complete all of the math practice problems assigned to the
class? She can have extended time – by taking them home and finishing them.
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
If he doesn’t qualify in math, why do I have to modify math work for a student
with a specific learning disability for reading comprehension?
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
For what reason(s) might a teacher want to make modifications or
accommodations to an ELA course for an ED student?
Some FAQs on SPED grading:
Rate the quality of this teacher’s mod/accom plan:
At the end of the block, I just go through Gradebook and make adjustments to
assignments based on each student’s IEP.
