The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
December 2007
A State of Distinction: Educating for Sustainability
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 2
Goals for today Begin to explore educating for sustainability Celebrate our successes Review the status of our 2008/2009 graduates Share OSPI’s funding and policy package to
sustain and grow student and school success Update our efforts to improve Mathematics
and Science Look to our future
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 3
Educating for Sustainability Empowers people to achieve results
the student in the classroom the teacher who has moved a group of students to
a new level of learning the principal who leads with skill and integrity the school and the district that support education
for sustainability Feeds upon its own energy and creativity, and
produces more in return than it consumes Doesn’t just spend money, but produces
return on investment that in turn spurs greater investment
Continues spirit of creativity and innovation that has made America the envy of the world
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 4
Our education system should prepare students to solve the real world problems we face
A dying Puget Sound that needs to be brought back to health.
Continued population growth – Washington is predicted to reach 8.5 million in 20 years.
Growing transportation nightmares. Growing water crisis in Eastern Washington. School funding needs to be fixed.
Our economy needs smart people with skills and creativity!
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 5
Our goal today is the same as it was almost 15 years ago:
Prepare students to live, learn and workin the 21st century.
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 6
But, we must rebuild consensus for that goal consensus around a system with a
strong foundation of basic skills and 21st century skills
consensus driven by a commitment of the heart for justice for all our students.
consensus that will sustain and expand gains from the most gifted to the most struggling kids.
consensus for a sustainable democracy and a sustainable world

Slide 31
Highlights of SBE Recommendationsin the Draft Less repetition, additional rigor Clarity and specificity Continued strength on developing algebraic
thinking K-8 Priorities clearly identified by grade Two aspects of mathematical processes
specifically identified: Reasoning/Problem Solving and
Communication Format has two levels to enhance usability:
Descriptive paragraphs understandable to a broad audience, including educators and the public
Specific expectations to guide instruction
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 32
Characteristics of the Draft Emphasis on depth and focus, rather than on
covering a list of topics Less repetition across grades, but conscious
coherence building from grade to grade Descriptive paragraphs help communicate to
a broad audience what mathematics skills and knowledge are expected and how they fit together
Not intended to prescribe an instructional approach; designed to communicate mathematical content to be learned
The 23rd Annual WERA/OSPI State Assessment Conference
Slide 33
Format of the Draft: Priorities
Three to four content priorities per grade K-8. Three to five content priorities by four strands
for 3 years of math 9-12. (Algebra/Number Sense, Functions/Analysis, Geometry/Measurement, Probability/Statistics)
Two additional process priorities: Reasoning/Problem Solving and Communication
Science

Allowing our kids to soar We do this because we love it and the kids. But
we also know we have to do more than love them. We must get them ready for a competitive world
in which they won’t always be loved, and where skills and academic literacy are necessities of life.
We want them to soar, to explore, to innovate and to create. And we want them to CARE.
We want them to have lives of joy, distinction and responsibility. So, we have to provide them the skills and discipline to succeed.
Ultimately, they will reward us with a sustainable democracy and a sustainable world.
