<div>Editor • Amy Van Hoose, director of curriculum and financial projects, updated everyone at the Oct. 26 Triad School District Board Meeting about the latest with the district’s Reveal Math pilot.“We held a math pilot meeting to discuss the strengths and challenges of Reveal Math,” she said. “All teachers were also invited to share feedback through a survey, identifying the program’s strengths and areas they found challenging,” she said. Strengths included the variety of differentiation resources, hands-on activities, an emphasis on number sense and mathematical reasoning, built-in flex days, spiral review and opportunities for math discourse.“The primary challenges identified were the amount of reading required, particularly in the younger grades, and the format of the assessments,” she said. “Teachers noted that the program includes more text and word problems than our current curriculum, which can create challenges for younger students.” Assessments were also described as text-heavy and primarily multiple choice, with teachers expressing a desire for more opportunities for students to show their work. “Because the assessments are editable, we will continue exploring ways to adapt them to better meet our students’ needs.“Overall, most committee members favor continuing with Reveal Math,” she said. “However, we are also taking a second look at Math & You and considering an additional pilot during the second semester. One option is to have some teachers continue with Reveal Math while others pilot Math & You. This approach would allow us to compare the programs and gather additional feedback before making future curriculum decisions.”The district’s next board meeting is Nov. 23 at 6:30 p.m. in the district’s administration building, located at 203 E. Throp St. in Troy.</div>
