Common Core Updates

 

Are you up to date on the Common Core?  The basics are here, put together by Emanuel. Common core-basic information for 21c funded programs.docx

Also, The Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium (Smarter Balanced) recently released a set of sample assessment items and performance tasks online for public review. Developed in collaboration with educators and content experts, the sample items and tasks are meant to help teachers, administrators, and policymakers better understand the Common Core State Standards and to prepare for the implementation of the Smarter Balanced assessments. 

 The sample items and performance tasks can be accessed from the Smarter Balanced website at http://www.smarterbalanced.org/sample-items-and-performance-tasks/.  It was really interesting to take part of the 4th grade computer test in language arts- I recommend checking it out; it gives a real feel as to what is coming- Emanuel
