Summary

The Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for mathematics improve on current state standards and provide a consistent framework for teaching and learning practices. They define the knowledge and skills necessary to develop mathematical proficiency and succeed at all levels of education. Common Core Mathematics in a PLC at Work, Grades K-2 guides elementary teachers in breaking away from past practices and collaboratively embracing five essential paradigms (collaboration, instruction, content, assessment, and intervention) to successfully implement the CCSS for mathematics.
