Description of Presentation:

This poster describes a research-practice partnership project intending to grow and strengthen the partnership between a state university and a local public school district. University faculty alongside teachers and coaches aim to reconceptualize the approach to common planning time (CPT) by analyzing ways CPT currently helps or hinders teachers’ ability to attend to students' mathematical thinking. By increasing teacher collaboration and a focus on mathematics and the curriculum during CPT meetings, we hypothesize teachers will learn to tailor lessons to students’ mathematical thinking, develop models for mathematical concepts, and consider the important developments related to CCSSM.
