<p>Moving forward into the 2021–2022 school year seems like a daunting task. Supporting mathematics students and teachers involves rethinking our priorities and resources given all the disruptions and challenges associated with last school year.</p>
<p>How do we attend to perceived potential learning and opportunity gaps? How do we foster social and emotional well-being and cultivate a safe learning environment? How can we best understand and value the varied learning each of our students has experienced during the past school year?</p>
<p>“Continuing the Journey: Mathematics Learning 2021 and Beyond”provides leaders and teachers considerations, questions, and potential solutions to address challenges revealed by the COVID-19 pandemic. “Continuing the Journey” addresses three key areas that have implications for equitable access to high-quality mathematics teaching and learning: (1) a focus on grade-level content; (2) instruction through equitable, effective teaching practices; and (3) planning for advocacy.</p>
<p>“Continuing the Journey: Mathematics Learning 2021 and Beyond”will be released by the end of July and is the combined effort of the Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics (ASSM), NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education (NCSM), and the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM).</p>
<p>Join us to learn more, share, and continue and sustain our journeys.</p>
