All Texas public and open enrollment charter schools are eligible to participate in Texas SUCCESS, a state-funded mathematics and reading program for all students in grades 3-8.
Schools are now in year 3 of implementation of Think Through Math and Istation Reading, and we are excited to offer training to help deepen your understanding of best practice for student success with these programs.
For session success:
- Participants should come knowing their Istation and/or Think Through Math login & password and have existing knowledge of how to log in to the program(s).
- Participants should bring a laptop with earphones or earbuds.
- Istation workshop participants should bring a laptop with the Istation student program downloaded and installed.
- Visit the resources available in the Istation Training Center or TTM Help section located within each user's individual Istation & TTM accounts if these programs are completely new to you.
TTM: Taking it to the Next Level
This 3 hour BYOD training session is for advanced Think Through Math users who have attended the Region 13 morning session (TTM: The Basics) or who have extended experience with TTM.
- Learn about what’s new for Year Three of TTM, where to find these features, how they work, and how they will help you and your students.
- Take stock of your TTM implementation and develop a plan for who is going to do what, when they’re going to do it, and how you’re going to get your kids to Think30!
- Engage in several activities to look at your students’ data to determine who is successful, who is struggling, and what to do next.
- Explore and practice proven strategies as you build your own example TTM Math Journal to help students to communicate their thinking when doing math.
- Practice with some activities and games developed by TTM for whole or small group instruction.
This is a BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) session. Please plan to bring a laptop computer and your own earphones. Region 13 will have a limited number of laptops available for participants who do not have a laptop to bring.
