Welcome to "Implementing the Common Core State Standards," a professional learning community where educators can develop a better understanding of the Common Core State Standards and how to implement them in their schools and classrooms.

  • Student Engagement Strategies that work
  • Response to Intervention and the CCSS
  • The Role of CCSS and our Advanced Learners

As a member of the community, you'll be invited to a free webinar and live chat each month.  You'll have access to all of the recorded webinars, presentations, and resources, providing you with an online learning center you can return to at any time.  CE certificates are provided for attending and viewing the webinars.

This community is a place where you can post questions, start discussions, and get feedback from experts and peers on understanding and implementing the Common Core State Standards.  Stay connected, share ideas, and get support from colleagues all across the country on this vital topic.
