Common Core State Standards
– what are they?
…….a set of national standards for
English/Language Arts & Mathematics,
that represent what students in grades
K-12 should master in order to be
college and career ready.
What about Science?
The CCSS does not have science has a
“core” …. however
California has also adopted the Next
Generation Science Standards (NGSS)
which are aligned with
the Common Core/ELA and Math standards,
but are SEPARATE Science Standards.
How are CCSS different than the
current state standards????
The Common Core standards
emphasize students demonstrating
understanding of content and analyzing
written materials rather than
memorizing specific information..
Sound familiar?????
 What are the Habits of Mind?
The Common Core Standards have an accompanying
list of the “Habits of Mind”. The Habits of Mind describe
a range of skills that are critical to not only success in
academics, but success in work and life.
Each Common Core Standard has its own Habits of
Mind; however the skill sets are not exclusive to math or
ELA. In fact, they are overarching skills that students
need to be successful in any endeavor.
The NGSS follows the same rubric…
