To help you get the most from i-Ready Classroom Mathematics, we partner with you to help you shape a culture of deep mathematics learning. Educators learn carefully developed practices built around the most important actions to drive meaningful mathematics conversations for conceptual understanding. Each educator learns to make the leap to discourse‑driven instruction with a powerful network of support behind them.
Our professional development is designed to grow along with your implementation, meeting the learning needs and interests of educators at each phase of their development: New, Practicing, and Advanced. Our courses address a set of common learning outcomes, while our Tailored Support sessions deliver targeted outcomes specific to your needs. These sessions may be delivered virtually or in person.
Educators are equipped to launch successful i-Ready Classroom Mathematics implementations and begin to make connections between the program, the Standards for Mathematical Practice, and the NCTM Effective Teaching Practices.
Educators learn to go deeper in examining how to use the i-Ready Classroom Mathematics Try–Discuss–Connect routine to support productive student discourse for all learners.
Educators gain insights into actions and beliefs that are key to teaching and learning mathematics with understanding and discuss starting points they can apply to their instructional interactions.
Leaders who are new to implementing this program are introduced to strategies for identifying observable markers of effective mathematics instruction and to practices that support educators in selecting appropriate program components, preparing for instruction, and establishing routines to facilitate meaningful discourse.
Tailored Support is planned collaboratively with you to provide what you need to meet your goals by addressing key areas of professional development. Our professional development specialists consult with educators to select appropriate content and create customized agendas.
The Educator Prep Series of online modules is a flexible complement to and extension of your onsite i-Ready Classroom Mathematics Professional Development program.
Educators analyze and discuss actions and beliefs that are key to teaching and learning mathematics with understanding and use them to reflect on features of their own i-Ready Classroom Mathematics instruction.
Educators consider discourse strategies to develop their mathematics community where students justify their own thinking and respond to the reasoning of their peers, building increased student understanding and ownership.
Educators learn to analyze student work samples and build their teaching practice for selecting, sequencing, sharing, and connecting student-generated strategies to advance established mathematical goals.
Educators explore the important role teacher questions play in the Try–Discuss–Connect routine and examine how high-leverage questions can engage all students in rich mathematical discussion.
Educators practice using informal assessments and other i-Ready Classroom Mathematics resources to scaffold instruction so all students progress toward deeper understanding of the mathematics.
Leaders who have been using i-Ready Classroom Mathematics for at least one year are prepared to support a school culture that fosters a growth mindset among students and educators.
