Getting Started with OUR 6-8/IM 6-12 Math as a Leader

Available Now

Overview

This series of three 2-hour virtual workshops will provide leaders with a foundational understanding of what makes the OUR 6-8/IM 6-12 Math curriculum unique. Leaders will work together to think through the change management required by the shift to problem-based math instruction, and each participant will use design thinking to map out their own individual plans to support the success of the curriculum in their context.

This workshop is part of a series. Explore the other workshop sessions below:

Audience

This Virtual Learning Series is designed for school and district leaders working with educators who are planning to or have recently transitioned to using the OUR 6-8/IM 6-12 Math curriculum. It is also a powerful learning experience for leaders of schools who have been using the curriculum for 1-2 years and are still working toward leveraging the curriculum materials to their full potential for student learning.

Specifications

• Three 2-hour virtual workshops are available. The number and combination of virtual workshops is flexible based on the needs of the partner, for instance a district may opt for only Workshops 1 and 2. 
• The timing of the Virtual Workshop Series is flexible. It could be scheduled on consecutive days, or with up to a month between virtual workshops. The virtual workshops would be worthwhile at any point throughout the school year or summer. 

Outcome

I systematically support teachers to use the curriculum’s problem-based structures to support student learning.
