What to Bring

Coaches should bring the following:

Comprehensive school improvement plan or equivalent (Instructional goals for Mathematics in 2006-2007)

One or two mathematics textbook(s) that they use in their school

Lessons, alternative assessments, student work (I know school is out and access to classrooms can be difficult, but if you can bring one or two things that other coaches would like to see or discuss, it would be helpful)
