Moving forward is a good thing. If you don't move, you become stagnant. If you become stagnant, you smell. (I'm going with a creek bed analogy here...stay with me). "It Is What It Is" helps us to keep our sanity as we try new things, but at the same time we should never settle for "what it is". We should constantly reflect and learn to move our teaching and our student's learning to higher levels so the classroom doesn't turn stale.

Transition Step 2: A CCS/KS Standards Crosswalk
My plan...as of now.
Tie as many CCS standards (in the ovals) to my existing curriculum based on the KS Standards (in the rectangles)
As we continue down this path, I will be able to drop the KS standards no longer tested.
Explanation:
The Solving Equations (Unit 3) is in both sets of standards, with the CCS going more in depth with the distributive property and like terms
The Pythagorean Theorem (Unit 5) is also in both sets of standards, with the CCS going more in depth with proofs of the theorem.
