A major challenge to Common Core implementation is the shortage of new and proficient standard-aligned material. As districts face the necessity of purchasing new instructional materials aligned to CCSS, open educational resources (OER) have become crucial. A variety of Common Core OER websites will be demonstrated to attendees and how they can be applied in Google Classroom. Attendees will learn how to search, filter, and assign exercises and formative assessments to students in Google Classroom.
