Today’s Outcomes

• Develop a deeper understanding of the connections between exemplary mathematics teaching and learning and Common Core assessment

• Gain a deeper understanding of level specific content in Mathematics and the impact on my school, program, or office

• Reflect and share best practices for Mathematics and identify existing and future supports

• Enhance relationships between and among DOI colleagues to strengthen our learning community.

Systemic Expectations• Know your students and the

differentiated supports in place to ensure their success
