A Guide for Professional Development Planning for

Implementation of the CCSSNovember 2011

Updated February 2012

http://ideas.aetn.org/commoncore/strategic-plan

Phase One: Building awareness of the CCSS among educators, including the rationale for having common standards across states

• All educators will be aware of the CCSS vision and will be familiar with the CCSS documents.

• All educators will understand the CCSS are learning progressions for students with the promise of being college and career ready.

• Educators will identify the student behaviors of learners that are college and career ready.

Phase Two: Going deeper into the standards to identify, understand, and implement significant instructional shifts implicit in the mathematics and ELA standards

• Educators will identify significant instructional shifts in ELA and mathematics.

• Educators will identify and participate in targeted, professional learning needed to implement CCSS.

Phase Three: Focusing on curriculum development/adoption and accessing the full range of assessment strategies to ensure success for all students

• All educators will collaborate to develop and adopt curriculum that is aligned to the Common Core State Standards.

• All educators will access the full range of assessment strategies to ensure success for all students.

Phase Four: Evaluating progress and making necessary revisions to the strategic plan to ensure success for all students.

• Educators will continue to meet in professional learning communities (PLC) to reflect on curriculum, instruction and assessment. Strategic plans will be updated to reflect learning.
