Not only do the new standards require more of students, but many teachers will have to change instructional practices.

We can help Kindergarten and Grade 1 teachers transition smoothly and efficiently to make the most effective use of initial implementation time!

Register now for our new workshop Implementing the K-1 2010 Common Core Mathematics Standards: Making it Do-able and Doing it Right!

Click on the link above or e-mail questions to chris@mathpd.com.

Also find out how our other workshops and support strategies have improved student achievement in schools and districts across the country.
