2014-15 Elementary School Support
All elementary teachers will implement the SFUSD Math Core Curriculum units in 2014–2015. Elementary math PD will use the Core Curriculum units as the vehicle for professional development with rich math tasks as the lever for instructional change.
Teacher Leaders will serve as a Math Leadership Team at their site to facilitate shared learning by planning monthly site collaboration days. They will foster understanding of pedagogical structures that support implementation of the Standards for Mathematical Practice and facilitate discussions about the development of mathematical concepts in the units.
