LEUSD Professional Development 2023/2024

K-2 Teachers! Come and experience tasks that provide so much more than just a "rigorous" assessment. Spending a small but intentional amount of time on a task with your students can provide actionable data, meaningful feedback for your PLC, re-engagement lessons, intervention supports, and rich classroom discussions for days to come.

We will primarily be looking at the Silicon Valley Math Initiative's tasks during this training. Rooted in the principles of the Teaching for Robust Understanding of Mathematics (TRU) Framework (University of California, Berkeley & Michigan State) and the Mathematical Language Routines (Standford University), SVMI designs and delivers uniquely transformative experiences and resources for equitable and engaging mathematics instruction.
