Zearn’s on-demand professional development options are designed to ensure every teacher is successful with Zearn Math and support year-long implementation of the Zearn Math curriculum. For the 20-21 school year, Zearn offers PD available to School Account holders and delivered through Zearn’s digital platform. The below video provides an overview of our PD offering.
Classroom Implementation
This PD option consists of 3 hours of interactive sessions designed to train participants on the Zearn Math rotational classroom model, including routines for Core and Flex Days and strategies for successful independent learning. This PD should be completed at the start of the school year.
Curriculum Study
This PD option consists of 8 hours per grade level of interactive sessions designed to build content knowledge on teaching the Zearn Math curriculum. Each Mission is explored in a session that dives into the word problems, fluencies, and Small Group Lessons of the Mission. Participants are prompted to collaboratively analyze the Mission while assessing student work and strategies for problem solving. This PD should be completed in grade-level team meetings over the course of the academic year. Preview Curriculum Study PD for Grade 3 Mission 1.
