E31: More Than Math: Building confidence, supporting students, and strengthening teaching (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Our elementary math interventionists and coaches have an interesting dual role. Part of their work puts them directly alongside students who may need some additional support. Another part puts them alongside teachers, coaching, collaborating, looking closely at instruction, and helping all of us continue to get better. Those two parts of the job also give them a pretty unique view of math learning in our schools. They see what happens when a student struggles and then begins to make connections.

Read excerpt
On November 3, voters in the School District of Fort Atkinson will be asked to consider a $7.1 million recurring operational referendum. But before we get very far, there's an important piece of context that can easily get lost in that number. This isn't a proposal to add $7.1 million in new programs or new spending on top of what we're doing today.
