Getting to the CORE:

Common Sense Strategies to Integrate Common Core Standards For K-12 teachers and administrators

 

Discover how to integrate the Common Core State Standards directly into your curriculum and everyday lesson planning. Dr. Taylor will show you how to integrate the CCSS through specific learning strategies using a differentiated, integrated, interdisciplinary, thematic approach.

Roger's model, GPS: Guiding Pupils to Success™, has been evolving since 1972 when UCLA produced a major work called Behavioral Objectives: A Guide to Individualizing Learning by Flanagan, Shanner and Mager. Using the Common Core State Standards, Roger has created a practical, user-friendly curriculum model to connect the CCSS to the essential question in each lesson plan.

The GPS Model is an integrated, interdisciplinary, differentiated curriculum model that is project-centered, integrates CCSS directly into your lesson planning and works in conjunction with your current classroom textbooks and curriculum. It...

  • Focuses on cognitive and affective experiences
  • Encourages character & ethical decision-making
  • Encompasses the use of literature, art, science, math, social media and digital technology
  • Anchors strategies to a social studies theme
  • Develops critical thinking skills
  • Integrates STEM - Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics
  • Incorporates the Arts into the curriculum...going from STEM to STEAM
  • Provides opportunities for students to become independent learners by using the unique I-Search / Research Projects as the teacher becomes the "guide on the side rather than the sage on the stage."

Handouts will be provided to participants on a flash drive or at rogertaylor.com to download before arriving to the workshop. Please bring your laptops.
