We are 3 elementary school teachers in your shoes...We are working to balance our diverse classrooms, create more time in our day, deal with budget cuts, all while figuring out how to transition our teaching and classrooms towards the Common Core State Standards.

There's an App for that!
Educational reform is not just happening in our classrooms, it is happening in technology too. Common Core has made its way into the App world. Here are a few Apps that can help bring the Common Core right to your fingertips. Just download them from your Apple Store.
App: Common Core Standards (FREE)
View the Common Core State Standards in one convenient FREE app! A great reference for students, parents, and teachers to easily read and understand the core standards. Quickly find standards by subject, grade, and subject category (domain/cluster). This app includes Math standards K-12 and Language Arts standards K-12. Math standards include both traditional and integrated pathways (as outlined in Appendix A of the common core) and synthesizes Language Arts standards with the Corresponding College and Career Readiness Standards (CCR's).
App: Common Core Look-fors (Mathematics, Technology) ($2.99)
Common Core Look-fors (CCL4s) is a great app for teachers integrating the Common Core State Standards into their classroom!

I am sure that most would agree when we say... by providing students a variety of ways to explore and reinforce their learning they stay engaged, excited and enthusiastic about their own education.
