    Regional Mathematics Workgroup
    2012-2013 Members are encouraged to return to continue to build your knowledge and skills.
    New members are welcome!
    Overview:

    In an effort to re-design professional learning experiences to align with research and best practices, this workgroup is one of several supports for schools and districts that will be offered by Olympic ESD over the three year standards transition period. Contact any of the Mathematics Department staff for information on other supports we offer.

    Participants will gain an understanding of the statewide implementation plan and support work, and enhance their leadership skills and content knowledge. By working together across the region we can build a mathematics Common Core leadership network and increase leadership capacity of our schools, districts and region.

    Audience:

    School and district level mathematics teacher leaders and administrators.
    We recommend that districts send a team that can work together to build district mathematics leadership and support district implementation efforts.

    • Develop a deep understanding of the of the CCSS Math standards & the new SmarterBalanced Assessments.
    • Understand the role of the building and district team leadership in supporting the implementation of the new standards.
