Vision 2026:
|
Academic Excellence Strategies 1 Implement learning acceleration strategies and programming. Academic Excellence Strategies 3 Develop implementation resources aligned with our Portrait of a Graduate.
|
Background
|
The Vision 2026 strategic plan includes a strategy of implementing learning acceleration and programming. One of the tactics for this strategy is to adopt and support the resources in K-8 academic core areas. This includes mathematics. This year, middle school math teachers piloted two high quality instructional materials. Elementary PACE teachers have also participated in a yearlong pilot of Illustrative Math's Accelerated Course 1 for grade 5 students. After engaging in a pilot of two materials, middle school staff recommend Illustrative Math for Math 6, 7 and 8. Elementary PACE and middle school FastPACE math teachers recommend Illustrative Math Accelerated Course 1 and 2 for grade 5 and 6 FastPACE courses. The scope and sequence of Accelerated Courses 1 and 2 allow students to be fully prepared for Algebra I in grade 7.
