1. FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT WITH
THE MATHEMATICS CCSS
Jeremy Vrtis & Dyana VanWyngaarden

2. Agenda
• Review October Strategies
• CCSS Resources
• Examples of Using the CCSS
in the Standards
• Create resources in your PLC

3. Strategies From October
I will create a clear and understandable vision of the
learning target for my students. (Strategy 1)
I will be able to design lessons to focus on one learning
target or aspect of quality. (Strategy 5)
Teach students to self-assess and set goals. (Strategy 4)
Engage students in self-reflection, and let them keep
track of and share their learning. (Strategy 7)

4. Common Core Resources

5. Strategy 1
The Instructor will
create a clear and
understandable
vision of the learning
target for my
students.

6. I will create a clear and understandable vision
of the learning target for my students.
(Strategy 1)
CCSS.Math.Content.HSG-SRT.C.6
Understand that by similarity, side
ratios in right triangles are properties of
the angles in the triangle, leading to
definitions of trigonometric ratios for
acute angles.

7. I will create a clear and understandable vision
of the learning target for my students.
(Strategy 1)
Student Target
I can utilize the trigonometric ratios in a
right triangle to calculate missing sides
or angles.

8. Strategy 5
The Instructor will
be able to design
lessons to focus on
one learning target
or aspect of quality.

9. The Instructor will be able to design lessons
to focus on one learning target or aspect of
quality. (Strategy 5)
CCSS.Math.Content.HSA-REI.C.5
Prove that, given a system of two
equations in two variables, replacing
one equation by the sum of that
equation and a multiple of the other
produces a system with the same
solutions.

10. The Instructor will be able to design lessons
to focus on one learning target or aspect of
quality. (Strategy 5)
Lesson Target
Given two
equations I can
evaluate which
method to use to
solve the system.
