COMMON CORE STATE STANDARDS Developed by state leaders from the � National Governors Association (NGA) � Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO) These groups were charged by their states to create the next generation of K-12 standards to ensure that all students are college- and careerready no later than the end of high school.

Common Core State Standards College Career Ready Standards This three-minute video explains how the Common Core State Standards will help students achieve at high levels and help them learn what they need to know to get to graduation and beyond. CCRS vimeo. com/51933492

RATE YOUR COMMON CORE KNOWLEDGE… 0 – This must have something to do with fruit, right? 1 – Isn’t that the new English and Math standards? I have heard something about those…didn’t we adopt them in Alabama? 2 – I have heard some about them and I have scanned through the standards document. 3 – I have thoroughly read through the document and I could use the terms “strand, ” boxed subheading, “ and “anchor standard” in proper context. 4 – I know the document backwards and forwards; transitioning to these new standards will be a breeze!
