FROM ROTE TO

Revolutionary

We work side-by-side with teachers and leaders to inspire a wave of change that leads to monumental leaps in math and literacy achievement. Equipped with new tools and innovative instructional techniques, teachers and leaders leave our professional development sessions ready to navigate the complexities of teaching in today's classrooms without relying on outdated methods.

The best part of this session was the resources. Sometimes in the moment, it can be challenging to think about how to intellectually prepare for student misconceptions with a potential logical step. Being able to think like a student and approach the work like a teacher will definitely help me in coaching my junior leaders in studying student work during our intellectual preparation meetings.
