Agenda Share experiences since last session Periodic assessment and Pacing updates Differentiated group work – Unit planning: Teacher’s Place – Examining updated resources: – – – Whole Group share out Reflections/Next steps

Since last session

PA Program: Overview of Changes In SY , there will be significant changes to the PA program Access to Acuity will end this summer New improved supports will be in place for schools A new set of formative assessments Aligned to the core curriculum and state scope and sequences guidance Schoolnet: A new more user-friendly technology platform that includes the ability to Create, administer, and report on formative assessment. (PD July/august) Incorporate other, non-centrally provided assessment and curriculum resources

PA: Overview of Available Assessments (k-8) Baseline Assessments: Literacy Assessments Performance Series (can be used multiple times) Common Core Aligned Baseline (Math only) School created or purchased ELL Periodic Assessment Benchmark Assessments Common Core Aligned Benchmark (Math and ELA) Literacy Assessments School created or purchased

PA: Grades 3-8 CCLS-aligned Math Baseline assessments will continue to be available with minor revisions over the summer based on educator feedback. New CCLS- aligned Benchmark assessments aligned to Core Curriculum options and state scope and sequence guidance: Math NYCDOE Core Curriculum options 3-5 Go Math Standards Sequence 6-8 CMP3 Standards Sequence NY State Module Standards Sequence for 3-8

Scope and Sequence Resources and Toolkits

New York City Scope and Sequence for CMP3 Grade 8

ments/Resources.htm This document contains a high level scope and sequence for the CMP3 program intended to give teachers an overview of where instructional time will be spent across the year through use of CMP3.

What will students be doing to experience the mathematics, What will be shared at the end of the lesson to push student understanding? What strategies will be used? What misconceptions might students have? How will students be grouped and receive access to the mathematics? What questions will be asked throughout the lesson to move students closer to the instructional outcomes desired? How will you assess student understanding? Homework?
