The Common Core State Standards Initiative
4
Beginning in the spring of 2009, Governors and state commissioners of education from 48 states, 2 territories and the District of Columbia committed to developing a common core of state K-12 English-language arts (ELA)
and mathematics standards. Over 40 states have formally adopted the Common Core State Standards.
The Common Core State Standards Initiative (CCSSI) is a state-led effort coordinated by the National Governors Association (NGA) and the Council of Chief State School
Officers (CCSSO). www.corestandards.org
Why Common Core Standards?• Preparation: The standards are college- and career-ready. They will help
prepare students with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed in education and training after high school.
• Competition: The standards are internationally benchmarked. Common standards will help ensure our students are globally competitive.
• Equity: Expectations are consistent for all and not dependent on a student’s zip code.
• Clarity: The standards are focused, coherent, and clear. Clearer standards help students (and parents and teachers) understand what is expected of them.
• Collaboration: The standards create a foundation to work collaboratively across states and districts, pooling resources and expertise, to create curricular tools, professional development, common assessments, and other materials.
5
Why are the Common Core State Standards for ELA right for Georgia?
• Previous work with the GPS has prepared Georgia for the implementation of the CCGPS.
• Prior teacher and administrator GPS training ensures a smooth transition.
• Although some content may be in different grade levels in CCSS, nearly all of the ELA standards are addressed.
• CCSS expectations are consistent with a single/high-rigor diploma requirement for all students.
5
How is adoption defined?
• 100% of the Common Core K-12 standards in ELA must be adopted within 3 years.
• States are allowed to add an additional 15% to the Common Core.
• A state will have “adopted” when the authorizing body (Georgia’s State Board of Education) has taken formal action to adopt and implement the Common Core. (This occurred on July 8, 2010.)
• States have flexibility as to how they communicate adoption relative to state standards.

Thomas Fordham Institute GPS and CCSS in 2010
Georgia (GPS): Grade B+ CCSS: Grade B+Clarity and Specificity: 2/3 Clarity & Specificity: 2/3Content and Rigor: 6/7 Content & Rigor: 6/7Total GPS score: 8/10 Total CCSS score: 8/10
Georgia is one of 5 states receiving a score of B+.Only six scored better: California, District of Columbia, and
Indiana: A; Massachusetts, Texas, and Tennessee: A-.According to the Fordham Report, Georgia is one of 11 states
considered to be in the same league as Common Core. Louisiana, Colorado, Virginia, and Oklahoma also scored a B+.

What about the alignment of CCSS with GPS?
• The Achieve Online Comparison Tool was used in June of 2010 to create an alignment of CCSS to GPS. However, this process did not include alignment of repetitive standards across grade levels as well as alignment of each standard in each high school course. Nevertheless, the alignment tool reported an alignment percentage of 81%.
10
What does Alignment really mean?
• Alignment is an approximate term used lightly to show a match or comparison.
• Some GPS standards/elements align or match perfectly in all aspects of comparison to CCGPS.
• Some GPS standards/elements align or match creatively in all aspects of comparison with CCGPS.
10
Alignment continued…
• Sometimes, alignment occurs when a Common Core standard matches a GPS standard at a different grade level.
• This grade level shift may be above the current GPS level or below it.
• The alignment may occur across different domains.

Common Core State Standards inEnglish Language Arts and Literacy in History/Social Studies,
Science, and Technical Subjects
College and Career Readiness (CCR) Standards Overarching standards for each strand that are further defined by grade-
specific standards
Grade-Level Standards in English Language Arts (CCGPS) K-8, grade-by-grade 9-10 and 11-12 grade bands for high school Four strands: Reading, Writing, Speaking and Listening, and Language
Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical Subjects Standards are embedded at grades K-5 Content-specific literacy standards are provided for grades 6-8, 9-10, and
11-12
14
College and Career Readiness Standards and Common Core State Standards
• The College and Career Readiness Standards were written first.
• These standards are the “goals” or “indicators” for true college and career readiness once a student graduates high school.
• Each Common Core State Standard is aligned to a college and career readiness standard.
15
College and Career Readiness (CCR) Anchor
Standards16
College and Career Readiness Standards
(CCR)
These standards “anchor” the document and define general, cross-disciplinary
literacy expectations that must be met for students to be prepared to enter
college and workforce training programs ready to succeed.
17
The CCR is the ANCHOR for ELA CCGPS
There are 32 CCR Standards:10 in Reading10 in Writing
6 in Speaking and Listening 6 in Language
18
CCR Anchor Example for Reading
CCRReading Standard #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.
CCGPS Reading Standard #1
(Kindergarten- Lit.) With prompting and support, ask and answer questions about key details in a text.
(7th grade Lit.) Cite several pieces of textual evidence to support analysis of what the text says explicitly as well as inferences drawn from the text.

These K-12 grade-specific standards define end-of-year expectations and a cumulative
progression designed to enable students to meet college and career readiness
expectations no later than the end of high school.

CCGPS(There are four strands in ELA.)
Reading> 9 standards (lit.) 10 standards (inf.)
Writing> 10 standardsSpeaking & Listening> 6 standards Language> 6 standards
Key Features of the ELA Standards
• Reading: Text Complexity and the growth of comprehension
• Writing: Text Types, responding to reading, and research
• Speaking and Listening: Flexible communication and collaboration
• Language: Conventions, effective use, and vocabulary
22
Who is responsible for which portion of the Standards?
• A single K-5 section lists standards for reading, writing, speaking and listening, and language across the curriculum, reflecting the fact that most or all of the instruction students in these grades receive comes from one teacher.
• Grades 6-12 are covered in two content area-specific sections, the first for the ELA teacher and the second for teachers of history/social studies, science, and technical subjects.

24
Non-negotiables
• The Georgia State Board of Education adopted the Common Core State Standards and named them “The Common Core Georgia Performance Standards (CCGPS).”
• These standards were adopted as written and must be addressed at the specified grade level.
• We were allowed to adopt 15% of the current GPS to the CCGPS.
24
ELA’s 15%
• November & December: Teachers provided feedback regarding the 15%.
• January: ELA Advisory Council met and studied the feedback.
• February: ELA Precision Review Team met and recommended the additions.
• March: ELA Precision Review Team and ELA Advisory Council met to begin resource work.

27
How are we preparing for CCGPS implementation?
• State English Language Arts team drafted initial alignment documents for each grade level; webinars and face-to-face sessions focused on the alignment; educators across the state submitted feedback regarding the alignment.
• The ELA Advisory Council sorted through the feedback as well as new alignment drafts and provided recommendations on alignment.
• Precision Review Teams were convened to review the feedback and make recommendations regarding alignment issues as well as additions to CCGPS from GPS.
• The recommendations of the ELA Precision Review Team were vetted with the ELA Advisory Council.
• The ELA Advisory Council and Precision Review Team convened to begin work on teacher guidance.
