D185 Task 4- A. Implementation plan of the Curriculum A1- Overview of the curriculum Eureka math is the curriculum that I will be implementing at my school. The curricu- lum Eureka math hones in on developing conceptual understanding, works through the whole process of deciphering answers to math problems, encourages different mental strategies to solve problems and is a common core aligned curriculum. Furthermore, Eureka Math focuses on making real-life connections and practical scenarios through word problems. A2a. Rationale for implementing the curriculum Closing the gap between students is the ultimate rationale for implementing Eureka Math in my school. Efficiently implementing Eureka will increase student confidence in mathematics and improve students conceptual mathematical understanding as a whole by teaching the whole process of working and solving equations. Its theorized that once student can conceptualize the comprehension of the process of solving problems, then they can apply it to any other problems and be successful at it. A2b. Expected Outcome The expected outcome of implementing the Eureka curriculum is that it will improve the students ability to make real world connections using mathematics and improve the students overall academic achievement through mathematical conceptualization in school A2c. Timeline and Key Components May 2024 January 2024-May 2024 May 2024-June 2024 June 2024-August 2024 August 2024-December 2024 The new curriculum for the year 2023-2024 will be decided by the math team. The key components are to organize and and list the implementation steps of the new Eu- reka curriculum. Furthermore, a powerpoint presentation will visual show how it will be and implemented in the coming year. There will be weekly team discussions and data tracking to show progress of the curriculum. The team data and information will be recorded for an evaluation process and then compared. Next, we will bring the curricu- lum to the stakeholders to discuss and inform of the success of the curriculum, the posi- tive and negatives. Lastly we will discuss to share ideas of the potential sustainability of
the curriculum, what worked and what didn’t work and the feasibility of the program in the future. A2d. Roles and Responsibilities There are specific roles and responsibilities that each instructor (teacher) and admin- istrator will have to facilitate the Eureka curriculum. The instructor’s role will be to plan, write and implement lessons from the curriculum. Secondly, the teachers will align the lessons and match them up to the state standards that must be annually. Thirdly, the teacher (instructor) will ensure that the all lessons are differentiated and that the stu- dents are put in position to succeed at a high level. The administrator’s role is to ensure that the Eureka curriculum has consistent conformity from the beginning to the end. Furthermore, they need to make sure that instructors (teachers) and cohorts (students, test groups) are teaching the same math in the classroom and the cohorts are receiving the same math instruction all throughout. Lastly. they will also host regular professional development meetings with the instructors. A2e. Resources The two resources that can be used within the Eureka Curriculum are feedback from the teachers, families, and students about their experiences that can be very engaging and cultivating a culture of support. Next, the students, teachers can use their laptops and tablets to get access to practice-based coaching data that can show strategies that support education staff in overcoming common challenges. Lastly, there are also highly individualized teaching and learning 15-minute in-service suites that teaches how to en- rich activities and make smooth transitions for all students get better acclimated with the Eureka Curriculum. A2f. Stakeholders The two stakeholders in the Eureka curriculum are the students and the parents. The students will be monitored and be asked frequently how the feel about their programs and curriculum. The questions we will ask them are are the getting enough knowledge of the program and do they feel like they growing in knowledge. The goal is to provide a curriculum that is edifying and challenging for the students. We want the student to feel empowered to play a strong role in their own learning process. Next, the parents role as stakeholders will be act a collaborative price that is integral for the implementation the Eureka curriculum. There will be consistent and constant communication the parents as they will be able to inform about the work being sent home, the efficacy and the load of the work. Moreover, they’ll be invited to weekly curriculum meetings so we can hear the ideas and feedback about curriculum from their point of view and they work on any ideas of how we can improve the program. A3. Supporting Teachers
In order to support teachers to the fullest extent, we need to make sure that the teachers know how to utilize and facilitate the curriculum. We will support the teachers in knowing how to use the program and to answer any specific questions they have be- fore using the program. In order to make sure that the implementation of the curriculum goes smoothly and is successful, we need feedback from the teachers about the strug- gles of the program, the tests, the misconceptions and deficiencies/struggles that may have occurred with the implementation so we can rectify and support the teacher as much as we can so they can be as successfully as possible. A3b. P.D Support Plan The teachers have the knowledge of standards of the subject at hand, concepts and state standards for their grade level and the teacher has the knowledge of the indi- vidual students and their needs and the classroom as well. The professional standards of the teachers will include them being culturally competent and conscientious of the students they serving when it comes to their language, socioeconomic status, individual differences and culture. Moreover, the teacher will understand their roles when it comes to making the curriculum accessible to the students. As a result, the main goal of the teacher is to show up personally and professionally for the students by implementing this Eureka curriculum efficiently and reflecting your teaching practice to improve the students growth in knowledge as a whole. As a result, the educators will be prepared to meet the academic growth and student engagement goals and outcomes. Activities: Lesson plans will be created for each lesson that supply guidance within the curricu- lum. Moreover, there will be an implementation of weekly meetings for special educa- tion teachers where they can plan as well and come up with strategies. Resources: There will be training for teachers to be trained bye more experience teachers. Fur- thermore, there will be mentors that teachers can reach out to for help and there will be random observations that can teachers can view other teachers and learn new class- room strategies. A3c. Strategies that Supports Teachers implementation of the curriculum There are a myriad of strategies that can aid and support the teachers and instructors that changes the lives of students each and every day. The first support system I will in- clude for the teachers is to provide the resource of curriculum mapping so they can fol- low the order of the lesson and implement easier. Moreover, i will provide materials and the proper training to teachers to help them maintain the state standards that align with the curriculum and lesson plans.

A3d. Strategies that supports teachers ongoing use of curriculum Thirdly, the strategy of an open door policy meeting for the teachers twice a week where they can come in ask for any help, discuss any concerns or issues, or talk about any current content that can help in the long term. Another important strategy that will be employed to give support teachers will be to increase professional development and have them voice their opinions on their feedback with the administration on the Eureka curriculum as a whole. As a result, the data and information from the support for the teachers can be used to create a stronger curriculum in the future. A4a. Monitoring the curriculum implementation and meeting goals The teachers will have to form a team or a cohesive group to monitor the goals and the implementation of the Eureka curriculum. The progress will be monitored comparing test scores from the previous year. An increase testing score would be indicative of growth since implementing the Eureka Curriculum. The common core standards aligns within the district that the testing is in and is a good barometer goal monitoring. A4b. Monitoring Implementation The implementation of the Eureka curriculum will be monitored by two ways. The first way is through continuous data monitoring. Allowing the educators and administrators to see if the Eureka Curriculum is helping bridge those educational gaps would be the cornerstone of continuous data monitoring. The goal here will be decipher a trend of raising scores when analyzing the data, which would be indicative that Eureka Curricu- lum is assisting. Next, keeping special education teachers involved in PLC’s is another way of monitoring the implementation of the Eureka Curriculum. PLC’s allow teachers to come together who teach the same content learn new strategies from one another. Moreover, its keeps the administration involved with teachers about the specific infor- mation and data about the activities, units and lesson plans and if they worked well or not and feedback can be share with administration and administration can continuously implement the curriculum at the top level.
