Align Curriculum and Create Assessments
Artifact: CCSS-M Aligned Report Card
Description: Since 2011, I have worked on my district's Math Subject Area Committee (SAC). In 2013-2014, we had the task of mapping the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics (CCSS-M) to the newly purchased Investigations curriculum, creating instructional maps, and producing a new CCSS-M aligned report card. At the end of the year, we conducted a professional learning session for all of our grade level colleagues in the district. in 2014-2015, we created CCSS-M aligned district math assessments for fourth grade. At the building level, I conducted a math series for teachers entitled "Pushing Student Thinking in Mathematics: Providing Students Rich Opportunities and Supporting Math Discourse."
Rationale for Inclusion and Reflection:This CCSS-M aligned report card, along with my other experiences on the district Math SAC and at the building level, demonstrate my ability to create and evaluate a comprehensive, rigorous and coherent standards-based curricular and instructional program, as well as, being able to assess and report student mastery related to the standards.
