See How to Teach the Common Core State Standards from Real Master Teachers
Salt Lake City (PRWEB) March 20, 2014 -- School Improvement Network, the leader in educator effectiveness resources, today announced nine new video segments showing real educators implementing ELA and math Common Core State Standards for grades K-8. The video segments are available to all educators on Common Core 360, a holistic resource for Common Core implementation.
“As educators in states across the country work to align their local school curriculum to the Common Core State Standards, video segments like these of master educators effectively implementing the Common Core give valuable insight and strategies that educators can replicate in their own classrooms,” said Chet D. Linton, CEO and president of School Improvement Network. “If implemented and taught effectively, the Standards have the potential to raise student achievement across the board and help students work towards the skillset they will need to succeed in college or a career.”

• Kindergarten: Identifying Shapes in the Environment, Math Content Standard K.G.B.5 and Math Practice Standards 1 and 5
