SELPA 1 CAC: Common Core and Students with Learning Challenges

How will common core change the curriculum and assessments? Common Core Standards recognize speaking and listening as an integral part of learning. Goals included in the new standards include concepts related to collaboration, cooperation, understanding other’s minds or point of view, analysis of fiction, understanding bias in our media and science, just to name a few! These new standards emphasize communication and group work, skills that students with learning (or other) disabilities often struggle with . How will teachers work with these students (IEPs, 504s, or struggling) so that they learn what they need to meet these valuable new standards? We are inviting representatives from each of our school districts (MVW, PAUSD, LASD, MVLA) to talk on a panel.
