Tab 1 -- CCSS-M Unpacked
What do the CCSS-M really mean?
Unpacked and clarified standards: Several states that have adopted the CCSS-M have been working to unpack and clarify the content standards for mathematics. This work represents one of the first few steps necessary to help teachers to plan for and implement the Standards with fidelity. Work from Kentucky, Arizona, North Carolina and Nevada is provided within this section.

Please use these resources with care: Don't just take the examples and resources and plug them into your work. Use them to start conversations with your teaching colleagues to help in developing a deeper understanding of what each of the content standards mean and how they relate to one another.

Essential questions to consider: As you explore the clarifying examples and additional resources, consider the following questions
  • how does the provided example help to clarify this standard?
  • which part(s) of the standard is clarified by this example? which part(s) are not?
  • how could models be used to clarify this standard? pictures? symbols?
  • how does this example help me to connect this standard to other related standards?

Tab 2 -- Math Tasks
Worthwhile Mathematical Tasks and Why We Need Them


[The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics] define what students should understand and be able to do in their study of mathematics. Asking a student to understand something means asking a teacher to assess whether the student has understood it. But what does mathematical understanding look like? One hallmark of mathematical understanding is the ability to justify, in a way appropriate to the student’s mathematical maturity, why a particular mathematical statement is true or where a mathematical rule comes from.

Mathematical understanding and procedural skill are equally important, and both are assessable using mathematical tasks of sufficient richness (CCSS-M, page 4).

Students must be presented with worthwile mathematical tasks so that they have the opportunity to develop flexible knowledge and skill and so that they can use mathematics to

  1.  Make sense of problems and persevere in solving them
  2.  Reason abstractly and quantitatively
  3.  Construct viable arguments and critique the reasoning of others
  4.  Model with mathematic
  5.  Use appropriate tools strategically
  6.  Attend to precision
  7.  Look for and make use of structure
  8.  Look for and express regularity in repeated reasoning
A worthwhile mathematical taks is one that
  1. is open-ended
  2. does not have a solution path that is immediately obvious (or implied)
  3. requires students to think and not just rely on memorized procedures
  4. requires students to connect mathematical skill, understanding, and reason
  5. requires students to interpret and communicate results.
Explore this Math Tasks section to discover worthwhile mathematical tasks for the main concepts across K-12 mathematics.

Common Core Apps

General

Common Core State Standards - FREE

This app includes a simple way to view each Common Core standard. A great reference for parents and teachers to easily read and understand the core standards. Quickly find standards by subject, grade, and subject category (domain/cluster). This app currently includes Math standards K-12 and Language Arts standards K-12. [Android App] | [iPhone/Pad App]

Practice Standards Look-fors - $

CCL4s provides an interface for entering observation data as well as access to all the Content Standards for Mathematics K-12 and the ISTE NETS.S. The collected observation data can be shared via email or with our unique built-in instant meeting. The graphs are very interactive and allow observers to merge different observations to compare and contrast different teachers or the same teacher over time. Using the Timeline feature, observers can track the observed Look-fors through time. 

Look-for Definition 
A 'Look-for' is a classroom observation tool that may be used as a non-evaluative assessment resource. The Look-fors in this peer-observation tool are designed to monitor and assess the extent to which students are engaged in particular elements of the Mathematical practices of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSSO, 2010). The tool provides suggested student responses for each of the Mathematical Practices as observational Look-fors. These should be helpful in providing suggestions related to both planning and assessment for teachers, content leaders, and school-based administrators. [iPhone/Pad App]

Elementary

Math Concentration - FREE

This app is brought to you by National Council of Teachers of Mathematics for children in grades PK-5. By yourself or against a friend, match whole numbers, shapes, fractions, or multiplication facts to equivalent representations. Practice with the clear panes or step up the challenge with the windows closed. How many socks can you win? This app is also available as an online activity along with many other free math resources for children. [Android App] | [iPhone/Pad App]

Okta's Rescue - FREE

Oh, no! Okta and his friends need help. Help rescue them by transporting them to a safe ocean. How fast can you transport the Oktas? Use your counting skills to save as many as you can before the timer runs out. This app was developed for children in grades preK–2 by Illuminations.  This app is also available as an online activity along with many other free math resources for children. [Android App][ | [iPhone App]

Know your Math Facts - FREE

Know Your Math Facts Free is an educational app to help children memorize addition and subtraction math facts. Two proven teaching strategies are used to help children memorize and quickly recall math facts to aide in preparation for timed tests at school. A math triangle and fact families are used to help children understand the relationship between addition and subtraction and enable children to learn multiple related facts at once making recall easier and quicker. [Android App] | [iPhone/Pad App]

Secondary

High School Math Course Assistant Apps

Each app is custom designed specifically for today's popular courses. Wolfram Course Assistant Apps use an intuitive interface that guides you through the coursework to help you solve problems, not just give you the answers. [iPhone/Pad App]

eNotebook

The first fully functional digital notebook created by teachers for the secondary classroom; the next generation of student notebooks. Read and write over your teacher's class files (.doc, .ppt, etc), transistion from Reader to Writer mode, Drag and Drop file management, never miss another note again! [iPad App]

Graphing Calculator

Looking for a good graphing calculator? There are tons to choose from [iPhone/Pad App]

Math Flyer - $

This app provides a graphing tool that draws on 15 years of experience teaching math concepts to math and science students, Shodor presents this app as the cleanest way to attach meaning to mathematical expressions. For teachers, this is the right way to present graphs of functions so that students truly understand them. For students, this is the best tool to use to really understand the meaning of the parts of a mathematical expression.

Tab 4 -- Units & Lessons
Model Units, Lessons, and Assessments for the Common Core

Oakland ISD is coordinating the development of model units, lessons, and assessments for each grade level K-11 around the Common Core State Standards for Math (CCSS-M).

Most grade levels contain 8 units of study. As of December 2011, the plan is to have 7-8 units released for each grade level by the end of Summer 2013.

You have full access to the units, lessons, and assessments through the Atlas system viewed on the right.

Directions:

  1. In the filter box, change "by School" to "Common Core".
  2. Change "by Grade" to the grade of your choice (Kindergarten - Grade 11).
  3. Change "by Subject" to "Mathematics"
  4. Click "Browse"

Your search results will provide you with a link to the unit and lesson plans and the assessment.

Tools for Selecting Mathematics Textbooks

The Curriculum Materials Analysis Project has developed 3 tools to support textbook review and adoption committees in gathering evidence to help select math textbooks that are well aligned to all aspects of the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics

Tool 1: Mathematics Content Alignment

Tool 2: Use of Mathematical Practices

Tool 3: General Overarching Considerations 

Financial Support for the Curriculum Materials Analysis Tools was provided by

  • Brookhill Foundation (Kathy Stumpf)
  • Texas Instruments (through CCSSO)
