Oh the places you'll go if you run and do not walk to the collaborative workspace for the North Carolina Department of Instruction.
The NC Department of Public Instruction is developing a wide array of instructional resources to support educators in the implementation of not only the Common Core State Standards but also the North Carolina Essential Standards. As I have researched for CCSS resources on various state department of education sites, I have noticed that the NCDPI resources are referenced and for good reason.

For many years, school districts across the country have utilized the math curriculum materials from North Carolina. When I was still in the classroom, I aligned my curriculum with these materials. I love to find materials that are off the shelf ready-to-use. These pre-common core materials can still be accessed and can be easily aligned with the CCSS. Just click on instructional resources:
I have been referencing the Common Core Instructional Support Tools from North Carolina ever since I started researching and facilitating workshops on the CCSS. The NCDPI has done an amazing job of unpacking both the CCSS for English Language Arts and Mathematics.
