This training emphasizes research-based Tier II strategies from the IES Practice Guide for Struggling Students and engages participants in how to identify students needing Tier II support for focal areas in Algebra I and meet their instructional needs. Participants will learn how to interpret results of formative assessments; use these data and other forms of data to make instructional decisions; and apply practical strategies for implementing evidence-based interventions for students receiving Tier II mathematics support.
Participants are required to have completed an online or face-to-face Algebra I EOC Success training prior to enrolling in this Algebra I Academy II. Participants will be asked to provide their completed Algebra I Prerequisite Form (available at http://www5.esc13.net/math/) to document their completion of this prerequisite.
This workshop is a BUILDING professional development opportunity that reflects an integrated and progressive approach to curriculum that connects disciplines, and the instructional strategies that support this integration. Building PDs extend the knowledge in the Core Workshops, allowing teachers to further their skills in a particular professional development pathway.
This session is offered at no cost to educators due to funding from the TEA TEKS PD grant.
