CCSS and Student Engagement ~ Muir Middle School - March 30, 2015
The School2Home program is all about student achievement, career and college readiness. Therefore, it is logical to begin student achievement conversations by looking at the Common Core State Standards and the technology that can support student achievement of CCSS.
Objectives: Teachers will
- become familiar with CCSS and technology support in meeting them.
- create/revise a lesson focusing on student engagement and the new CCS standards
- become familiar with ways to improve content vocabulary by using technology tools.
