Declaring New Year’s resolutions is a goal-setting tradition. Teachers are given district goals, campus goals, and individual student goals with plans they are required to follow.
In my role as a CPM coach, I was planning a lesson with a teacher in Lesson 9.1.1 of Core Connections, Geometry (How can I build it?) a few weeks ago.
With changing practices in teaching there must also be changing practices in assessing students.
I just started my 25th year in the classroom, so why do I feel like a first-year teacher?
As a member of the CPM Coaching Cadre I plan lessons with teachers on a daily basis.

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.
