We blogged in June about a K12 common standards initiative that was underway to develop baseline expectations for math and reading skills at the national level. The first draft of the proposed standards is now available for review, and public feedback is requested.
You have until October 21 to submit feedback. You can view the standards and give input online:www.corestandards.org/Standards/index.htm.
Speak Up
The Haiku team encourages you to review the standards and add your voice to the conversation. We’re excited about the opportunity that common standards will provide in terms of shared content and shared teaching and learning strategies, yet we recognize that it will take an extraordinary effort to implement the metrics and to ensure that they truly are benefiting students.
The initiative is led by the National Governors Association and the Council of Chief State School Officers. Forty-eight states and three U.S. territories have joined the effort. See the complete list.
