Points to Consider

26

• Vertical alignment within a programmatic level

• Consistent use of academic vocabulary

• Alignment across programmatic levels

• Capacity of a series to meet the needs of students who can master Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II as well as students who may need the additional support  through Algebra I Support and Conceptual Math (21st Century Algebra).

• Formative assessment along with prescriptive instruction and intervention

• Web resources – accessibility both at school and at home

• Opportunity for teachers to improve their content knowledge

• The amount of professional development teachers will need to effectively utilize the program, especially important if a “bundled” program is adopted
