Let’s review……
Rationale
o EquityStudents expectations the same regardless of where they live
o College and Career ReadinessStudents need to be more than proficient
o Comparability State results will be comparable through common assessments
o Sharing of ResourcesThe ability to share instructional materials across state lines can improve practice
o Economies of ScalePossible savings due to sharing of resources and assessments
o Student MobilityStudents moving into and out of states will have the same standards

Types of Knowledge
Where to begin: How to determine differentiation needs
• Reading level• Retention/recall ability• Vocabulary• Life experiences• Motivational level• Interest level
Write-Around Activity• Brainstorm a list of activities
you have used to determine abilities and interests
• After one minute, pass your index card to the right.
• Read the list. Add to the list. Star (*) ideas that you want to inquire about.
• Repeat until your card returns to you.
• Table talk
•Pictograph•Personal Timeline•Free Write
You are not alone! Collaboration

Differentiating Common Core Lessons
Example Lesson Disability Awareness Common Core Activity
John Locke – Book 2, Chapter 11 Excerpt12. Idiots and madmen. How far idiots are concerned in the
want or weakness of any, or all of the foregoing faculties, an exact observation of their several ways of faultering would no doubt discover. For those who either perceive but dully, or retain the ideas that come into their minds but ill, who cannot readily excite or compound them, will have little matter to think on. Those who cannot distinguish, compare, and abstract, would hardly be able to understand and make use of language, or judge or reason to any tolerable degree; but only a little and imperfectly about things present, and very familiar to their senses. And indeed any of the forementioned faculties, if wanting, or out of order, produce suitable defects in men's understandings and knowledge.
Stacey Clifford’s LOCKE, EQUALITY AND COGNITIVE DISABILITY
What are the differences, for Locke, between changelings and idiots? Unfortunately, I find it nearly impossible to know for certain what in fact distinguished these groups. But we know that they shared a common defect of the mind that rendered them both incapable of abstraction, language and personal identity. Retracing Locke’s myriad uses of idiots–to disprove innate ideas, to elucidate key human faculties, and to draw the bounds of human membership–we might say that idiots are changelings: while they never fully materialize in Lock’s text, their shape constantly shifts change dependent on the task at hand. Indeed, because they never fully emerge enables their shape-shifting status. Hence, although Locke relegates idiots to the periphery of moral existence, their function is central to Locke’s enterprise.
