TD Committee Update
March 30, 2015
Thank You!
Thank you all for submitting your Power Standards to Michelle.
In this process of talking to different people about the "Power Standards" we (Michelle & I) realized that some of this work has been done for us (imagine that!).

Power Standards
Mathematics
Lea Anne West (our Math Facilitator) has shared the Math Power Standards for grades 3-5 and I have uploaded them to our Google Classroom.
Literacy
The Literacy Power Standards are in the works...Mrs. Stinson (1st grade teacher) is on the Literacy Scope and Sequence Development Team for CMS. Mrs. Stinson, along with other teachers & facilitators from other schools have been working on creating Power Standards for our learning community for grades K-5. These standards have been divided into cycles, or dates/periods, and will eventually have assessments to go with them.
Currently, they have a rough draft of these standards and they are supposed to be presented to the Literacy Facilitators on April 16th. The team is still working on Common Assessments to accompany these Power Standards. This information is supposed to be presented to teachers this summer during the Read, Write, Inspire Workshop(s).
