Emma Stalsitz EEU209 01/25/24 Pre-Class Questions and Answers: National Common Core Standards for grades preK-1, the PA State Common Core Standards for grades preK-1, and the 8 Math Practices 1. Summarize the main skills in grades preK-1 in the National Common Core standards . Include what skills are mainly learned by the end of each grade level, what domains are focused on in each grade level, what skills are least focused on in each grade level. PreK: The main skills learned by the end of PreK are Counting and Cardinality (number names, count sequence, count to tell the number of objects, and compare numbers), Operations and Algebraic Thinking (understanding addition and subtraction), Geometry (identify, describe, analyze, compose, compare, and create shapes), and Measurement and Data (describe and compare measurable attributes of length and weight, classify objects, and count the number of objects in each classification). K: The main skills learned by the end of Kindergarten are Counting and Cardinality (number names, write and recite the count sequence, one-to-one correspondence to count, and apply the concept of magnitude to compare numbers and quantities), Numbers and Operations in Base Ten (use place value to decompose numbers within 19), Operations and Algebraic Thinking (extend concepts of adding and subtracting within 10), Geometry (identify, describe, analyze, compare, create, and compose, two- and three- dimensional shapes), Measurement and Data (describe and compare attributes of length, area, weight, and capacity of objects, classify objects, and count the number of each object). 1: The main skills learned by the end of 1st grade are Numbers and Operations in Base Ten (extend counting sequence to read and write numerals, place-value concepts, add and subtract within 100 using place-value), Operations and Algebraic Thinking (add and subtract within 20, apply properties of operations, and understand the relationship between addition and subtraction), Geometry (compose and distinguish two- and three- dimensional shapes and partition shapes into quarters and halves), and Measurement and Data (order lengths, measure indirectly, repeat unit lengths, tell and write time to the nearest half hour, and represent and interpret data using tables/charts). 2. Summarize the theory behind how the National Common Core standards were developed. The National Common Core standards were developed to determine what students need to know and demonstrate the ability to do in order to be prepared for an entry-level college course. For some states, that task would prove more difficult than others because academic standards varied widely from state to state. 3. Compare and contrast the National Common Core Standards and the PA Common Core Standards PreK-1 (SAS) . How are they similar and different? When comparing the National Common Core Standards and the PA Common Core Standards PreK-1 (SAS) there are not any glaring differences between the two. With that being said, the NCCS seems a lot more rigorous compared to its counterpart. I have two
Emma Stalsitz EEU209 01/25/24 younger brothers (in 5th and 6th grade) and after further research on the school district website, it was said that SAS is not directly aligned with the NCCS, but it has an overwhelming amount of similarities. I believe that this will provide a smooth transition for students and teachers when switching from SAS to NCCS. 4. Summarize your reaction to teaching a standards-based curriculum using the guidelines in the Common Core Standards. Personally, I don’t have a positive or negative reaction to teaching a standards-based curriculum using the guidelines in the Common Core Standards. I think that these standards help all students get a good education, even if they change schools or move to a different state. In addition, it will improve student success in entry-level college classes for a lot of students going to out-of-state schools.
