LiteracyLearningwithMsTrei - Common Core State Standards

The State Board of Education voted 6-0 on July 29, 2010 to adopt the Common Core State Standards as part of the Iowa Core.

The Common Core standards are:

Aligned with expectations for college and career success;
Built upon strengths and lessons of current state standards and standards of top-performing nations;
Informed by other top performing countries, so that all students are prepared to succeed in our global economy and society; and
Evidence- and research-based.
