Common Core California Standards TOM TORLAKSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction Next Steps: – Compare to ELA & Math Model Curriculum Standards (completed) – Add or adjust (15%) standards for better alignment (completed) – Create new instructional materials – Grade level expectation documents – Offer Professional Development

Common Core California Standards TOM TORLAKSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction Assessment: – Two National Consortiums • Smarter Balanced Assessment -30 states, Washington is fiscal agent, West. Ed is Project Manager, $160 million from USDOE • Partnership for the Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers PARCC) -26 states, Florida is fiscal agent, ACHIEVE, Inc is Project Manager, $170 from USDOE

CA Career Technical Education MCS & Framework TOM TORLAKSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction Form work groups to review and revise CTE Model Curriculum Standards: • Foundation and Pathways – STEM content integration identification – Green content integration identification – Common Core Standards applications – Crosswalk with Career Clusters Knowledge & Skills and pathways for reference

CCCS & CTE Model Curriculum Standards Alignment TOM TORLAKSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction • Foundation and Pathways (cont’d) – Align foundation standards with CCCS – Consider adding, revising, deleting pathways – Revise MCS as needed to reflect review results – Revise Framework – Offer professional development

CCCS & CTE Model Curriculum Standards Alignment TOM TORLAKSON State Superintendent of Public Instruction Considerations: – ELA; more than individual presentations, emphasize teams, groups, pairs – ELA & Math; demonstrate use of technology – All subjects; use similar verbs whenever possible
