Change Ahead

The CCLS has defined 12 instructional shifts—six in ELA/Literacy and six in math—that represent changes in what and how teachers present their curriculum in the classroom. The shifts provide a framework for teachers to help students think more analytically and gain a deeper understanding of the material they’re learning.

After your group discussion, submit a post answering this question in your own words:  How will these instructional shifts change your current instructional methods?
