Common Core- Assessment: Smarter Balanced and PARCC

More than 40 states and territories joined one of the K–12 comprehensive assessment consortia, the Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers (PARCC) or the Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium.

A common set of college- and career-readiness standards by states means that by 2014–15, more than 80 percent of U.S. public school students and teachers will be focusing on the same content standards.

Assessment systems should develop assessment and reporting tools that: •balance summative, interim and formative testing through an integrated system of standards, curriculum, assessment and instruction.•effectively gauge college and career readiness support quick turnaround of results.

Major Shift: Writing from Sources

Writing emphasizes use of evidence from sources to inform or make an argument.

Common Core-Next Steps: Focus on Writing

• Review CCSS Writing Standards for your grade level and one grade level above.

• Review CCSS rubric for persuasive writing.

• Work with PLC Groups to begin developing high order writing activities that align all CCSS Writing Standards to at least one of the current CA State Content Standards.

• Report results and challenges to principal.

• Ensure rigorous implementation of writing in your classroom.
