ELEVATING CELEBRATING EFFECTIVE
WELCOME!
Agenda
• Participants will be:• introduced to Common
Core• introduced to the
Framework for Teaching Lesson Planners (FFT)
• introduced to Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs)
• Use our new Crosswalk documents to create a lesson plan aligned to Common Core and FFT
COMMON CORE
COMMON CORE
• English Language Arts• Building knowledge through content-rich nonfiction and
informational text• Reading and writing grounded in evidence from the text• Regular practice with complex text and its academic
vocabulary
• Mathematics• Focus strongly where the Standards focus• Coherence: think across grades, and link to major topics
within grades• Rigor: require conceptual understanding, procedural skill
and fluency, and application with intensity

UnderstandingStudent Learning Objectives (SLOs)
FEBRUARY 2013PRINCE GEORGE’S COUNTY PUBL IC SCHOOLS
TODAY’S OUTCOMES
Recognize how SLOs align with
the goals for Maryland’s
RTTT Initiative
Develop a shared
understanding of the purpose for using SLOs
Become familiar with the SLO vocabulary,
development and
implementation process
Create an SLO from
using your student data
Plan for key considerations
in pilot implementation
of SLOs
MARYLAND CLASSROOM

What new information is presented about teacher evaluation? What aspects will remain the same?
What training do you think you need to fully understand and implement the processes mentioned?
What are some potential technological glitches? Do you see any conflicts with existing efforts? What are they?
How does this information align with the other responsibilities?

Student Learning Objectives are not a disconnected initiative. Rather, they bring together all the essential aspects of instruction.
Curriculum, standards, instruction, assessment and data review, inform high quality SLOs

A STUDENT LEARNING OBJECTIVE (S.L.O.) IS…
…an instructional
goal… for specific
students…for a specific
time interval
Focused on the most valuable learning
Based on the most current
student data
Aligned to current
curriculum standards
Specific and measurable
Adapted from New York State District-wide Growth Goal Setting Process – Road Map for Districts

• Choose a standard• Think about strategies to teach this standard and
the resources available• Consider a real-life scenario to hook students’
interest• Think through the lesson’s structure:
engagement, introductory activity/developmental, guided practice, independent activity, assessment
• Product• Fine-tune with AASL Benchmarks, Dispositions in
Action, Responsibilities, and Self-Assessment Skills
