Riverside Publishing is pleased to provide this site as a resource for our educator
partners. The Common Core Standards initiative has gained unprecedented momentum
with more and more states signing on to adopt these standards going forward. In
order to assist you, we have done some research and are pleased to provide some
resources that you can access to get more information on the Common Core Standards.

In order to help you understand what the common core standards mean overall, we
are pleased to provide you with a free webinar that will help you deconstruct the
requirements into an understandable format.
The webinar will cover:
— An overview of the math and reading standards.
— How this new initiative and theory of common core standards will impact
districts.
— How the current and future structure of assessments will be impacted.
Please check back soon for additional dates.
If you are not able to attend a webinar you can watch and listen to a pre-recorded
webinar right now.
