2. Thank you!  Preview group members David Kauffman, Perez Principal Jesus Barba, Perez Math Coach Donna Linn, Galindo Principal Adriana Stoeltje, Galindo Inst Specialist Isabel Ahearn, Ortega Bilingual Coach

3. Guiding Question:  How can/do we use the IPGs, resources, & planning tools with our teachers to positively impact student learning?

4. Task #1  Study the structure of the IPGs. What patterns do you see? How will these patterns impact teacher planning? How can/do we use the IPGs with our teachers & teams to impact student learning?  Be prepared to share your group’s thinking with the whole group. Tab 1 15 minutes

5. Share A pattern we noticed is…., and we think it will impact planning & learning by/ because…

13. IPG Resources  What you are getting today!  What you have gotten in the past Tab 5

14. Questions & Answers

15. Instructional Core  The knowledge & skill of the teacher  The role of the student as learner  Rigorous content

16. Principles of the Instructional Core  Task predicts performance  The real accountability system is in the tasks that the students are asked to do.

17. Academically Rigorous & Aligned Tasks “The single biggest observational discipline we have to teach people in our networks is to look on top of the students’ desks rather than at the teacher in front of the room…The only way to find out what students are actually doing is to observe what they are doing….” Instructional Rounds in Education, p. 30

18. 1.What are the teachers doing & saying? 2.What are the students doing & saying? 3.What is the task?

19. 5.1 Number Operation & Quantitative Reasoning The student uses place value to represent whole numbers & decimals.  5.1B The student is expected to use place value to read, write, compare, & order decimals through the thousandths place.

20. Task Analysis  Analyze math tasks A, B, C, & D for alignment & academic rigor.  Rank the tasks in order from the one with least alignment & least rigor to… (#1) the one with the most alignment & most rigor (#4).  Explain your ranking.
