Case: Gkids/Common Core Standards
In kindergarten, we are expected to complete the Gkids assessments and grade based on the common core standards. Often these two things do not match, the Gkids assessments are much less rigorous than the common core standards. How can both be utilized effectively?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I have seen GKIDS being used before, and I agree, the Common Core standards do not match up with GKIDS and vice versa. I feel as if kindergartners must know how to accomplish the skills on GKIDS before they can accomplish mastering the Common Core standards. I also feel that if the state of Georgia is going to continue to use both the GKIDS and Common Core standards, GKIDS will have to be "revamped" to meet or match the skills of the Common Core standards in order for the kindergarten students to master those standards to move on to first grade.
I think I would look at the GKIDS skills and find the Common Core standards that even remotely resembles the skills on GKIDS. I would look at where the disconnect is and figure out a way to meet both the skill and the standard. It will be more planning on the teacher's part, but if both are going to continue to be used for kindergartners, the teacher must find some way to fill the gap. |

| Comments: This solution is useful because it addresses the disconnect between the two assessments and looks to find a way to integrate both into student learning. |
