Recognition. No matter how vague or discreet the recognition is, we all love it. My Curriculum Director actually sent my name to two different districts this week in response to inquiries about a state sponsored math project. This may not sound like a big deal, but I’ve been openly critical of our local curriculum. Here and here (recent examples). As an example of why I’m critical, just this past week I was handed 5 weeks worth of lessons for my reading students. Obviously, because I don’t know the standards that need to be covered before our state assessment.
Math standards though are somehow less demanding (I guess?), because I was just recommended to advise two other districts in their assessment prep!
