Every principal of a GEAR UP school has talked with us about the Common Core and how they're working with their teachers to be
ready for the implementation. As many of you know implementing Common
Core standards will change the way many schools and classrooms are
organized. An emphasis on greater rigor, higher-level thinking and
authentic assessments may challenge some of your teachers and may not be
well understood by families.
This week I read a thoughtful eduptopia blog by Erin Powers How Will the Common Core Change What We Do. It's a really helpful summary of the anticipated changes and how to plan for their arrival.
I'd enjoy hearing from you about how your planning for implementation of the Common Core.
