Now that you have had some time to experience the IM 6-8 curriculum with students and you have seen how it has engaged and empowered them as mathematicians, you may want to take a deeper look at what this curriculum offers and how you can be more efficient in your use of it! In Year 2, we will create a community of math teachers who will become resources and support for each other as you implement this innovative curriculum, which continues to be provided at no cost by Open Up Resources and now by Kendall Hunt.
Year 2 training includes the following areas of focus:
- ?Establishing a Culture of Learning
- ?Efficient and Effective Lesson Planning - Addressing the “time” issue
- ?Understanding the purposes and uses of various math tools
- ?Understanding the mathematics modeling process
- ?Assessing and Differentiating Instruction - RTI Tier 1 embedded differentiation
