Navigating the Mathematics CCSS Chapter 1 (p. 1-21)
THIS WEEK’S PROMPT:
In Chapter 1, we read that there are three major shifts represented by the Common Core Math Standards--focus, coherence, and rigor.
- How does the design and intent of the CCSS support focus in grades K-12?
- As we shift to teaching fewer concepts in greater depth, what are the implications for your planning and instruction?
DUE DATES:
- by Monday: Your initial response to the prompt should be posted.
- by next Thursday: Revisit this site and respond to at least one of your fellow participant’s comments.
