Readers will find realistic strategies supported by examples from a diverse range of schools. Topics include: Empowering teachers and staff as partners in planning for and implementing the new standards; Adapting existing curricula to meet goals for mathematics and language arts at each grade level; Designing assessments that measure mastery of the standards; Ensuring that the standards benefit learning for all students, including multicultural learners.
