Aligning the Teaching Standards with the Common Core Standards
8/10/2010
An interesting moment occurred when I tried to align the California Standards for the Teaching Profession with the new Common Core Standards. In brief, they don't align. I looked at some of my old observations and discovered that what was clearly exemplary practice when viewed through the lens of the teaching standards may not reveal any of the Common Core Standards to be in place for that lesson. How this can be will be a subject of a future article. However, the fact that they are not necessarily in alignment is the subject of an article I have already written and posted to my website: www.readfirst.net.
