Access and InclusionJump to contentJump to Navigation
Please join us for a four part series to examine how number sense assessments can guide instructional decisions. We’ll discuss “the why” for conducting math interviews with students, how to group students, how to choose tasks based on the interview data, how to leverage important models for instruction, such as “open number lines,” and bring attention to important domains for numeracy, such as fractions. The Using Assessments to Guide Instruction PLC will utilize several different resources: Forefront’s Universal Screeners for Number Sense (USNS), assessments and tasks from the new IM360 release of Illustrative Mathematics, and Fractions tasks from Achieve the Core. The grade range of the USNS spans K-6. IM360 is K-12, and the fractions tasks are geared toward upper elementary and middle school. PLC participants from both general education K-8 and special education K-12 will have opportunities during the PLC to work with colleagues in heterogeneous vertical grade bands and also within their grade range. Dates: Wednesdays, February 26, March 26, April 30, May 28
Times: 4:30-7:30PM (4:30 - 5:00pm: Sign in and mingle; 5:00 - 7:30pm: PLC)
