“How do MY ACTIONS as a teacher influence learning for ALL STUDENTS?”
Thirty-two educators from twenty states gathered for five days of life-changing professional development in August.
I had the pleasure of serving as the junior mentor for the Academy of Best Practices 5.0 at Seattle Pacific University in August.
Change is hard; it requires time, effort and support. For many of you, this school year has you embarking on a journey to create a student centered, problem based classroom.
You may remember the story from your youth about the little engine that could.
Ladies and gents, fellow teachers in the trenches, do I have advice for you!

This professional learning is designed for teachers as they begin their implementation of CPM. This series contains multiple components and is grounded in multiple active experiences delivered over the first year. This learning experience will encourage teachers to adjust their instructional practices, expand their content knowledge, and challenge their beliefs about teaching and learning. Teachers and leaders will gain first-hand experience with CPM with emphasis on what they will be teaching. Throughout this series educators will experience the mathematics, consider instructional practices, and learn about the classroom environment necessary for a successful implementation of CPM curriculum resources.
Page 2 of the Professional Learning Progression (PDF) describes all of the components of this learning event and the additional support available. Teachers new to a course, but have previously attended Foundations for Implementation, can choose to engage in the course Content Modules in the Professional Learning Portal rather than attending the entire series of learning events again.
