PARENT WORKSHOP
2. The Common Core State Standards
Mission Statement
The Common Core State Standards provide a
consistent, clear understanding of what students are
expected to learn, so teachers and parents know
what they need to do to help them. The standards are
designed to be robust and relevant to the real world,
reflecting the knowledge and skills that our young
people need for success in college and careers. With
American students fully prepared for the future, our
communities will be best positioned to compete
successfully in the global economy.
3. The Common Core State Standards
ïThis was a state-led effort, not a federal effort
ïAdopted by 45 states, 3 territories, and DoDEA
schools
ïDesigned to ensure that students are College and
Career Ready when they graduate from high
school
ïBased on international standards so students will be
competitive in the global marketplace
ïHawaii is part of the SMARTER Balanced
Consortium which is developing a common
assessment based on the CCSS.
4. Think About It
Talk with your neighbor and discuss these questions.
ïWhat does it mean to be College and Career Ready?
ïWhy is this important at the elementary school level?
ïHow do our General Learner Outcomes fit in with
being College and Career Ready?
6. CCR Anchor Standards for Reading
ï Key Ideas and details
1. Read closely to determine what the text says explicitly and to make logical
inferences from it; cite specific textual evidence when writing or speaking to
support conclusions drawn from the text.
2. Determine central ideas or themes of a text and analyze their development;
summarize the key supporting details and ideas.
3. Analyze how and why individuals, events, and ideas develop and interact
over the course of a text.
ï Craft and Structure
4. Interpret words and phrases as they are used in a text, including
determining technical, connotative, and figurative meanings, and analyze
how specific word choices shape meaning or tone.
5. Analyze the structure of texts, including how specific sentences, paragraphs,
and larger portions of the text (e.g., a section, chapter, scene, or stanza)
relate to each other and the whole.
6. Assess how point of view or purpose shapes the content and style of a text
7. âą Integration of Knowledge and Ideas
7. Integrate and evaluate content presented in diverse media and formats,
including visually and quantitatively, as well as in words.
8. Delineate and evaluate the argument and specific claims in a text, including the
validity of the reasoning as well as the relevance and sufficiency of the
evidence.
9. Analyze how two or more texts address similar themes or topics in order to
build knowledge or to compare the approaches the authors take.
âą Range of reading and Level of Text Complexity
10. Read and comprehend complex literary and informational texts
independently and proficiently.
8. CCR Anchor Standards for Writing
ï Text types and Purposes
1. Write arguments to support claims in an analysis of
substantive topics or texts, using valid reasoning and
relevant and sufficient evidence.
2. Write informative/explanatory texts to examine and
convey complex ideas and information clearly and
accurately through the effective selection,
organization, and analysis of content.
3. Write narratives to develop real or imagined
experiences or events using effective technique, well-
chosen details, and well-structured event sequences.
9. Production and distribution of Writing
4. Produce clear and coherent writing in which the
development, organization, and style are
appropriate to task,
purpose, and audience.
5. Develop and strengthen writing as needed by
planning, revising, editing, rewriting, or trying a
new approach.
6. Use technology, including the Internet, to
produce and publish writing and to interact and
collaborate with others
10. Research to Build and Present Knowledge
7. Conduct short as well as more sustained research projects
based on focused questions, demonstrating understanding of
the subject under investigation.
8. Gather relevant information from multiple print and digital
sources, assess the credibility and accuracy of each
source, and integrate the information while avoiding
plagiarism.
9. Draw evidence from literary or informational texts to
support analysis, reflection, and research.
Range of Writing
10. Write routinely over extended time frames (time for
research, reflection, and revision) and shorter time frames (a
single sitting or a day or two) for a range of tasks, purposes,
and audiences.
11. Your Assignment
The standard we will be addressing: Determine the
meaning of words and phrases as they are used in a
text, including figurative language such as metaphors
and similes.
ïRead the poem silently to yourself. Read closely.
ïRe-read the poem and write down examples of
figurative language. Select three that you like and think
about why they are meaningful to you.
ïDiscuss your examples with a partner.
ïWrite a response to this question: How does the use of
figurative language help the reader to understand the
poem?
12. Mathematics
OPERATIONS AND ALGEBRAIC THINKING (GRADES 4
AND 5)
NUMBERS AND OPERATION IN BASE TEN (GRADES 4
AND 5)
NUMBERS AND OPERATION FRACTIONS
(GRADES 4 AND 5)
MEASUREMENT AND DATA (GRADES 4 AND 5)

13. Mathematical Standards
ïThere are fewer standards but they are more
focused.
ïStandards define what students should understand
and be able to do in their study of mathematics.
ïThere are 8 standards of mathematical practices.
The two we will focus on most are #1 and #3:
ï#1 - Make sense of problems and persevere in
solving them.
ï#3 - Construct viable arguments and critique
the reasoning of others.
