RTQ4: How have you engaged the community and parents in progressing mathematics teaching and learning? #divergED #leaderED

A4. Inviting Ps into the classroom to learn alongside their Ss. I also have my Ss create movies of their learning for parents. #diverged

@ERobbPrincipal @nalang1 me too--Thinking about ways to get families at all grade levels to school functions that celebrate math. #divergED

A3. Sharing a math teacher's story on my blog for changing the "how" of math instruction. https://t.co/JhigfzN3Cx #diverged

A4: I'd like to see parents/companies come in and explain how math is used in their reality. Ss see math in a book, not in life. #divergED

@tsschmidty @khanacademy Definitely amazed at their innovative approach to math instruction and student motivation! #divergED

@nalang1 @drewprice11 This should be our focus on accountability, not the state tests. #diverged #ATAssess

A4: maybe using class website, student made videos where students teach parents math concepts?? #divergED

nalang1 - Moderator May 3 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@MrDataGuy @drewprice11 Bingo! #divergED

beccaspice May 3 @ 8:29 PM EDT

I recommend making your own. You can make it more conceptual and geared toward your students. #divergED https://t.co/MmROwchQAV

Nice Danielle! Next generation math is the RIGHT math, but it's not the math we (or parents) experienced #divergED https://t.co/Rclm3YMadj

A4. I have been a catalyst in creating a math PD committee that supports Ts with standards & instructional strategies. #diverged

Our other department Ts plan and integrate real life math that applies to their content. Helps kids make connections #divergED

tsschmidty May 3 @ 8:29 PM EDT

@beccaspice Totally agree! We had students make videos for struggling classmates! So cool to see their progress! #divergED
