We are excited to work together with teachers to transform expectations for all students. As a first step, we encourage all teachers to begin to review and become familiar with the Common Core State Standards.

You can find the downloadable copies of the Common Core Standards and their appendices from the Common Core website .

After becoming familiar with the Standards, please reference the Literacy and Math Content Frameworks to understand how to build plans and instructional tasks aligned to the Standards:

• Literacy Content Framework
• Mathematics Content Framework

You can also find a toolset for every grade here:
