Goals of the Project1. Examine the research-affirmed foundation of

mathematics content and process standards to deepen understanding of the AZCCRS in mathematics

2. Examine the instructional shifts necessary to implement the AZCCRS in mathematics

3. Examine evidence-based practices for effective observation, coaching and evaluation of AZCCRS in mathematics

4. Examine effective practices to develop an understanding of the AZCCRS in mathematics for the parent/guardians, community members and other stakeholders
