Math Resource and GVC Refinement Cadre Opportunity
From Matthew Andersen
Last spring a cadre of K-5 teachers, ICs, and administrators from across the district came together to review math curriculum resources for a possible adoption in 2018-2019. Based on our established criteria, it was determined that Eureka Math was the curriculum resource that best met our current math needs in KCKPS. Therefore, the Curriculum Department is currently seeking K-5 classroom and ESL/SPED collaborating teachers who will help determine ways to best refine the GVC as well as provide information on future professional development.

ELA GVC Refinement and Resources Cadre Opportunity
From Jasmine Shimerda
The Curriculum Department is seeking Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade classroom teachers and ESL/SPED collaborating teachers to participate in an ELA cadre. This cadre will refine the Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum (GVC) in order to articulate and support the vision for responsive whole group reading instruction (K-2) and phonics/word study instruction (K-1). As part of the process to inform the GVC refinement, this cadre will engage in study to deepen understanding of the ELA standards and responsive whole group literacy instruction, as well as work to implement new Fountas and Pinnell Classroom resources (Interactive Read Aloud, Shared Reading, and Phonics, Spelling and Word Study) into their classrooms. Cadre members will also inform the best ways to support teachers around utilizing the refined GVC and new resources that will be provided to all K-2 classroom teachers for the 2018-19 school year .
Please see flyer for additional information and share with teachers who might be interested in this opportunity.
