CSRA RESA


A series of Regional Math Collaborative meetings have been set-up for CSRA RESA's school systems. All middle and high school math teachers are invited to attend. The purpose of these meetings is to bring updates from the State Department of Education, address the issues and concerns of implementing the GPS and integrated curriculum. Participants will look at tasks from middle school and High School Math I and begin to find ways to make a smooth transition between middle and high school. Throughout the year, participants will have an opportunity to begin to develop teaching units for high school and evaluate textbooks/instructional materials for the new Math I course.

During the first meeting, Dr. Sam McGaw will present recent updates, the Standards Based Classroom checklist, plans for textbook selection and address concerns that teachers have at this point. Teachers should bring a copy of their math GPS and questions/concerns they have about the new curriculum or implementation of standards. Regional dates and locations can be found below:
