As an MTL in multiple schools - Feelings of Apprehension, Anxiety in each.
If you don’t let these go to excess, that’s not a bad feeling.
One I faced every year when I accepted responsibility for helping a class of students learn math.
As a middle/high school teacher, an anxiety I faced in each of 5 classes – each different.

One major Priority:
Listen!Developed by the Milwaukee Mathematics Partnership (MMP) with support by the National Science Foundation

In almost every class period I have taught, I learned something from my students –
when I took the time & effort to listen.
This applies to your role in each of your assigned schools!

In listening, give colleagues space:Learn “what to hear” and “what to ignore.”
Reflect on what you are hearing – Be sure it is your colleague’s voice, concern, need – not yours.
Know when to back-off and let your colleague regain composure.
When to join in – as a learner.

Ms. Olsen is having a new house built on Ash Road. She is designing a sidewalk from Ash Road to her front door. She wants the sidewalk to have an end in the shape of an isosceles trapezoid, as shown.
The contractor charges a fee of $200 plus $12 per square foot of sidewalk.
Based on the diagram, what will the contractor charge Ms. Olsen?
