We know from experience the hard work teachers face every day as they strive to help their students meet the challenges set by higher standards.
We are a team of current and former classroom teachers, curriculum writers, school leaders and education experts who have worked in the public, private and nonprofit sectors.
We are dedicated to empowering teachers by providing free, high-quality standards-aligned resources for the classroom, the opportunity for immersive training through our Institutes, and the option of support through our website offerings.

Our Observations
Align
Many of us are
required to use
curricula that are not aligned
.
Even when we are using aligned materials, alignment is
not always well understood.
Adapt
Most students are not ready for the grade in which they find themselves. Most curricula do not offer comprehensive materials or approaches for supporting students below grade level. TeachPutting it all together: teaching with aligned materials and supporting students that are
below grade level is very challenging!

Align
Today’s objectives: Participants will be able to describe key elements of an aligned unit in terms of focus, coherence, and rigor using the Content Guide.
Participants will be able to analyze a unit they brought for alignment to the shifts.

Norms That Support Our Learning
Take responsibility for yourself as a learner
Honor timeframes (start, end, activity)
Be an active and hands-on learner
Use technology to enhance learning
Strive for equity of voice
Contribute to a learning environment in which it is “safe to not know”

Slide12Choose the corner with the shift that most resonates with you.
Introduce yourself
What is your name?Where are you from?
What is your role?Why does this shift resonate with you?
Discuss the shift as a group. What does the shift mean with regard to the
the
Standards?
Have a scribe write a definition.
Share what the shifts mean to your group.

I. Three Corners
12
Slide13Focus:
The Standards call for greater focus in mathematics. Rather than racing to cover many topics in a mile-wide, inch-deep curriculum, the Standards ask math teachers to significantly
narrow and deepen the way time and energy are spent in the classroom.
Slide14ALIGNING INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS (GRADES K-5)
Focus in Grade 1
14
Slide15Within-Grade Coherence:
Coherence is built into the standards for each grade through the utilization of complementary topics to support and reinforce
a major topic in a grade.
This also increases focus in the grade.
Slide16Across-Grade Coherence:
Learning is carefully connected
across grades so that students can build new understanding onto foundations built in previous years.
Slide1717
Rigor:
Materials should pursue with equal intensity
the three aspects of rigor: conceptual understanding,procedural skill and fluency, and modeling/application.
Slide18ALIGNING INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS (GRADES K-5)
Which
Aspect of Rigor?

3.OA.B.6
Understand division as an unknown-factor problem.
For example, find 15 ÷ 3 by finding the number that makes 15 when multiplied by 3
.
Conceptual Understanding

Fluently add and subtract within 20 using mental strategies. By end of Grade 2, know from memory all sums of two one-digit numbers.

4.OA.A.2
Multiply or divide to solve word problems
involving multiplicative comparison, e.g., by using drawings and equations with a symbol for the unknown number to represent the problem, distinguishing multiplicative comparison from additive comparison.

Analyzing Part 1 of the Content Guidefor Rigor
What aspects of rigor do you notice for the standards?
Which standards in this cluster indicate conceptual understanding? What are students asked to do that builds conceptual understanding?
Are there standards that require fluency? What are students doing that builds fluency?
Are there standards that indicate application? What are students doing that requires modeling or requires them to solve
real-world
problems?
If one is not present, why might you not find it in this cluster?
