Videos of Common Core Lessons for
Teachers
There are over 80 free videos related to
Common Core instruction available on
the Teaching
Channel. The videos provide lesson
ideas, an overview of the ELA and Math
standards, and
demonstrations of teaching practices.
Videos vary in length from five to thirty
minutes.

CCSS Mathematics Resources
Inside Mathematics
The Illustrative Math Project
• http://insidemathematics.org
a site that features classroom
examples of innovative
teaching methods and
insights into student learning
and tools for mathematics
instruction. To illustrate the
CCSS for Mathematical
Practice, links are provided for
each individual practice
standard correlated to
excerpts of mathematics
lessons.
•
http://illustrativemathematics.org)
•
This project aims to illustrate each of
the standards using high-quality
reviewed tasks from teacher leaders.
The site provides guidance to all
stakeholders implementing the CCSS
by illustrating the range and types of
mathematical work that students will
experience and other
implementation tools. The Web site
continues to be updated, with
illustrated standards added on a
regular basis. Contributors and
advisors to the project include
common core authors William
McCallum, Jason Zimba, and Phil
Daro.

In limited quantities, there is no
charge for the booklets. I'll send
two additional sets down to you so
you, Zona and Rick can each have a
set. In larger quantities, we would
need to make some charge to cover
our costs. The PDFs of the ELA K6
booklets are available for download

We used the CDE documents to
prepare our booklets so all the

• Provide a Facilitator’s Guide.
• Provide interactive training that allows for discussion,
requires participation, and supports adult learning.
• Offer presentation options and resources for educator
participation.
• Include material so that participants can:
– select grade span
– problem solve situations involving special populations
– focus on subject matter
– skip selections already mastered
• Provide opportunities to practice new skills and discuss
possible solutions to the identified challenges.

Technology Readiness—SBAC
CDE will collect baseline data from districts and schools
to help determine the minimum requirements for
technology. Therefore, the first data collection
window will be a technology readiness inventory.
Data collection summaries will be available. These
reports will help improve data quality and to inform
the two consortia regarding which types of hardware
and operating systems are currently being used in
schools.
Tech Readiness Data Collection
The California statewide Technology Readiness
data collection window will open April 16, 2012
and end June 14, 2012. This tool will help identify
how ready schools are to support a system of
online assessments. will be sending an email to
Technology Directors in each district across
California.
What do we do next?
• Continue to SHARE Information with
colleagues
• Implement CCS in teaching using the
“crosswalk”
• In the Fall, recommend supplementary
materials for purchase
• Participate in CDE training modules
• USE Common Core Resources
