◦ State of Missouri Support
◦ Normandy School District Support
◦ Q and A from Parking Lot
How do you feel about your knowledge of
Common Core State Standards in regard to
Mathematics?
Our objective today…
Normandy School District Leadership will develop a
foundational knowledge of what Common Core
really means in Mathematics in order to assist staff on
this topic.

Third Shift - Rigor
Rigor involves…
Conceptual understanding – do the math
 Fluency – quick recall/efficient,
appropriate, accurate
 Applications – practices, processes and
proficiencies

How does this affect instruction?
Currently, all districts should be implementing the
eight Standards for Mathematical Practice in all
grades K-12.
 In addition: During the 2012-2013 school year,
districts should align K-2 mathematics curriculum,
instruction, and assessment to the Mathematics
CAS.
 Beginning with the 2013-2014 school year,
districts should align all K-12 mathematics
curriculum, instruction, and assessments to the
Mathematics CAS.
