Riassunto

Lead a Common Core implementation that closes achievement gaps!

 

This illuminating book shows how central Common Core tenets—rigor, meaningful curricula and assessment, and higher order thinking—can become educational realities for every child in your school or district. This timely resource enables readers to:

• Understand how underlying beliefs related to historically-underserved students may create roadblocks to effective instruction
• Create a school culture where diversity is valued, including developing relevant professional learning
• Compile and analyze meaningful data that enables faculty to better reach students from all backgrounds
• Advance the goal of college and career-readiness for all learners
