NYS Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards Unpacking Documents
In 2015, New York State (NYS) began a process of review and revision of the NYS P-12 Common Core Learning Standards for Mathematics. Through numerous phases of public comment, virtual and face-to-face meetings with committees consisting of NYS educators (including Special Education, Bilingual Education and English as a New Language teachers), parents, curriculum specialists, school administrators, college professors, and experts in cognitive research, the NYS Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards (2017) were developed. These standards reflect the collaborative efforts and expertise of all constituents involved and were adopted by the Board of Regents in September 2017.Ìý The Next Generation Learning Standards Roadmap and Implementation Timeline provides a suggested plan designed to assist educators as they transition to the NYS Next Generation Learning Standards.
Learning standards are defined as the knowledge, skills and understanding that individuals can habitually demonstrate over time because of instruction and learning experiences. To assist with the transition to the Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards, a team of NYS educators developed a series of unpacking documents that demonstrate one method of analyzing a specific standard designed to help illustrate what student learning might look like with regard to that standard.

The ideas presented in these documents can be utilized in conjunction with current local curriculum and instruction.Ìý Educators are encouraged to add on to these documents and adapt them to best fit the needs of their learners, as well as work through the process of unpacking other grade-level standards, which will provide an opportunity for reflective practice and aid in lesson planning. Further information on the process utilized in developing the unpacking documents listed below can be found in A Guide for Unpacking the New York State Next Generation Mathematics Learning Standards.Ìý
The list of standards below contain some unpacking exemplars for each of the grade-levels Prekindergarten-Grade 8. A blank unpacking template is also provided. Any suggestions and/or additions on how to make the exemplars more useful can be addressed to the Office of Curriculum and Instruction, emscurric@nysed.gov.
