Developed benchmarks and data designed to spot and track learning trends and student hurdles.
Modeled lessons for teachers, co-taught lessons within the classroom, and met weekly in team level meetings to discuss best practices, identify common misconceptions through analyzing student work, and, most recently, helped teachers become comfortable and familiar with the new common core standard and practices.
