We host this conference as an investment in the most important educational resource that America has—the classroom teacher. We are honored that you chose to join us. It is our hope that what you saw, heard, did, and learned at this conference will leave you motivated and inspired to continue the pursuit of mathematics with your students and colleagues.

We extend a thank you to those who were willing to present their ideas and strategies with their colleagues. We hope you enjoyed your time in the beautiful San Francisco area and left energized to continue empowering your students. We hope to see you next year!

Consider speaking at the 2020 CPM Teacher Conference: February 22 & 23, 2020

An Open Conversation About Assessment in CPM Classrooms
As our district has started the process of implementing CPM, we have found that how we assess students is changing and even our philosophy around assessment is evolving. We will share our journey so far, and we invite you to share your story of change in the way you assess students or to ask questions that you may have around assessments. Our hope is that an open discussion around assessment in CPM classrooms will help us all come to a better understanding and walk away with some new ideas.

Get Past Points to Make Feedback Functional: Mastery Grading
This session is repeated on Sunday at 10:05.  When lessons say "CCSS" & “growth mindset” but the gradebook disagrees, students follow the grade. How can teachers put the focus on the learning? I will share a system of learning targets, rubrics, assessments, and progress monitoring that aligns with CPM Core Connections Algebra pacing and spaced practice to provide students with multiple opportunities to show mastery.

Differentiating Curriculum with CPM in Geometry and Beyond
Have your students been working with CPM since 5th grade? Are they burnt out by the procedures and problems? Are you not getting the results you used to with CPM? In our session you will learn about the different strategies/add-ins we use with the CPM curriculum to keep our high school students engaged in this great curriculum. We will also talk about the different ways we use assessments in our classrooms and how this supports their understanding and mastery.
