coaching conversations
Educators and leaders have access to personalized support, either one-on-one or group sessions. During sessions, participants co-construct instructional strategies that intentionally foster student engagement and academic discourse. These strategies are intended to elevate student [mathematical] identity, and agency and create equitable learning environments.
What's the conversation?
Participants unpack and rehearse mathematical tasks using district-specific curriculum and have access to
👤 Individualized Guidance: to understand specific needs, opportunities, and challenges, for the participants and their classrooms.
💬 Conversational Support: to provide participants with a safe space to share concerns, ask questions, and process HQIM implementation practices.
🌟 Focused Learning: to explore, plan, and/or rehearse teaching methods aligned with district HQIM, principles, and strategies for fostering inclusive, equitable, and culturally responsive learning.
🧠 Continuous Growth: to empower participants with knowledge and skills needed for ongoing growth and development, both personally and professionally.
