From beginning: need 5 states
Currently have 5 or 6 states + DC + Dept. of Defense
Be honest:
Is your instruction following the shifts: focus, coherence, rigor?
Are students engaged? Are students talking?
Are students justifying? Reasoning? Modeling?
Are you using formative assessments to guide instruction?
