Part of the Every Student Can Learn Mathematics series

Boost K-12 student achievement and math skills by enhancing your approach to mathematics homework and grading. This user-friendly resource is divided into two parts, each covering a key team action for mathematics in a PLC at Work™. First, you''ll learn how to develop common independent practice assignments or math homework for formative student learning within a professional learning community (PLC). Then, discover how to work collaboratively to create quality equitable grading practices to help you evaluate independent practice effectiveness. The book features teacher team tools and activities to inspire student achievement and enhance grading routines as part of a formative student learning process.

Learn collaborative homework and grading practices to grow your students'' math skills:

Discover how you and your colleagues can design and use mathematics homework and grading practices to produce significant improvement in student learning.Learn the value of common scoring agreements among educators.Understand and find solutions to common grading errors to ensure equity among all students.Implement effective grading practices that provide meaningful and actionable formative feedback to students.Support student engagement and ensure students persevere in their learning of mathematics problem solving.

This second edition book from the Every Student Can Learn Mathematics series guides you and your collaborative teams in building student and collective teacher efficacy through the formative use of common assessments. Discover how you can work interdependently to design high-quality assessments, calibrate scoring of student work, and analyze data to enhance instructional practices and sustain effective Tier 2 learning experiences for students. New and enhanced protocols and examples provide practical tools and models for immediate implementation. Improve your mathematics collaborative team assessment processes using the four critical questions of a PLC at Work® along with an RTI or MTSS focus on effective Tier 2 interventions.

This book will help K–12 mathematics teachers and teacher teams: Learn the criteria for the formative use of all unit-by-unit common mathematics assessmentsIdentify essential learning standards as drivers for common assessments and student reflectionDesign and use high-quality common assessments and team scoring agreementsCalibrate the scoring of student work for consistent formative feedback to studentsEngage in data protocols that analyze student work to enhance instructional practices, identify students in need of targeted intervention or extension, and create effective intervention learning experiencesDetermine how students can reflect and set goals using the formative feedback process based on common unit-by-unit assessmentsDesign and implement an effective Tier 2 mathematics intervention program to support student learningContents:PrefaceIntroductionChapter 1: The Mathematics at Work Common Assessment ProcessChapter 2: Quality Common Mathematics AssessmentsChapter 3: Sample Common Mathematics Assessments and Calibration RoutinesChapter 4: Teacher Actions in the Formative Assessment ProcessChapter 5: Student Actions in the Formative Assessment ProcessChapter 6: Team Response to Student Learning Using Tier 2 Mathematics Intervention CriteriaSummaryEpilogueAppendixReferences and ResourcesIndex
