Hello CSEN!

 

Wednesday, February 17,  2010 Meeting will be at  McREL, Aurora.(http://www.mcrel.org/about/map/index.asp)

 

Science Standards II - Implementation and Next Steps hosted by Matt Kuhn at McREL. We’ll share resources and strategies for implementing the new standards, including McREL’s tools for a “guaranteed and viable curriculum.

McREL research shows that having a guaranteed and viable curriculum—identifying what content is essential for all students, sequencing it in a way that gives students ample opportunity to learn it, and ensuring teachers address the content in their classrooms—is one of the most important things schools can do to raise student achievement. Drawing upon research-based guidance, and our book, Classroom Instruction that Works, McREL offers intensive professional development so school and district leadership teams can create and sequence curricula that help all students succeed.

 

Please view the calendar for upcoming meetings.
