Get practical applications for implementing the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) in a 2-day Discovery Education Common Core Academy August 14 – 15, 2013  334 Rte 9W, Palisades, NY 10976

What are the core components of the CCSS and how do they impact me?Educators across America are grappling with what the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) mean for their instruction and have key questions around successful implementation:

  • »  How do I integrate the CCSS most effectively into my curriculum an instruction?

  • »  How do I create assessments that align to the CCSS?

  • »  How do I plan for the successful implementation of the CCSS in my classroom? My school? My district?

As a trusted educational partner, Discovery Education has worked with thousands of educational leaders to transform teaching and learning. We understand that successful implementation requires a focus on fundamentals: curriculum, instruction, assessment, and leadership.
