"Unwrapping" the standards is a simple but powerful practice to help educators clarify what students must know and be able to do. When educators take the time to analyze each standard and identify its essential concepts and skills, the result is more effective instructional planning, higher quality assessment design, and improved student learning. In this 20th anniversary reprint, "Unwrapping" the Standards, A Simple Process to Clarify Student Learning Outcomes, Larry Ainsworth guides educators through each phase of the "unwrapping" standards process. Sharing the stories of K-12 educators and leaders across the country who have successfully implemented this process, Larry convincingly explains why "unwrapping" standards continues to be a "timeless" practice to elevate teaching and learning. Key features of this 20th anniversary reprinted book include how to: - Clarify specific concepts and skills students need to know and be able to do from the wording of the standards - Represent the "unwrapped" concepts and skills on a graphic organizer of choice - Determine Big Ideas (the "aha's" or "lightbulb" moments of understanding) teachers want students to discover as they learn the "unwrapped" standards - Write Essential Questions that actively engage students and promote their own discovery of the Big Ideas. - Increase understanding of the complete process with over 80 examples of "unwrapped" standards across the four grade spans (K-2, 3-5, 6-8, and 9-12) in multiple content areas. Plus, a time-saving feature! Ready-to-use checklists and templates to help educators immediately apply this simple, proven technique for managing the standards!

The consensus among educators nationwide is that in-depth instruction paired with focused assessment of essential concepts and skills are far more effective than superficially covering every concept and skill in the standards. Educators are faced with the task of teaching all standards while meeting the extraordinary range of student learning needs. Prioritizing the Common Core offers common sense solutions to the dilemmas teachers face today in implementing the new, more rigorous national standards. Chapters present a rationale for prioritizing the Common Core, a step-by-step process for prioritizing standards in language arts and mathematics, strategies for soliciting feedback and input from everyone in the district or school prior to the final determination of the Priority Standards, and detailed summaries of the process schools in six different districts used to identify their Priority Standards, with accompanying commentary by those who directed the work.
