Part of the Every Student Can Learn Mathematics series
Boost K-12 student achievement and math skills by enhancing your approach to mathematics homework and grading. This user-friendly resource is divided into two parts, each covering a key team action for mathematics in a PLC at Work™. First, you'll learn how to develop common independent practice assignments or math homework for formative student learning within a professional learning community (PLC). Then, discover how to work collaboratively to create quality equitable grading practices to help you evaluate independent practice effectiveness. The book features teacher team tools and activities to inspire student achievement and enhance grading routines as part of a formative student learning process.
Learn collaborative homework and grading practices to grow your students' math skills:

"This valuable resource answers frequently asked questions with practical information, examples, and resources from schools that have taken learning to a whole new level. The most impressive aspect of this book is the intentional focus on student involvement in the learning process, incorporating metacognitive strategies that increase self-efficacy and awareness. I enthusiastically recommend this book to anyone who truly wants to improve student learning through effective homework and grading practices."
--Sharon V. Kramer, author, PLC at Work associate, and educational consultant"Mathematics Homework and Grading in a PLC at Work provides guidance to operationalize the vision of equity in classroom practice. No longer will teams merely talk about equity in the abstract, as this book offers concrete examples and vignettes to develop a shared understanding of the required work as well as tools for reflection and discussion to minimize disparities among teachers. What a great tool for collaborative teams as they consider their practices to propel student learning in mathematics."
--Denise M. Walston, director of mathematics, Council of the Great City Schools, Washington, DC"Teachers and administrators often struggle with questions surrounding homework. In Mathematics Homework and Grading in a PLC at Work, the authors show how developing high-quality independent practice assignments, along with the needed grading components, are critical parts of the PLC process. The reflection and discussion tools offer powerful experiences for collaborative teams in doing the right work. This book is a must for every educator working to improve learning for every student."
--Connie S. Schrock, professor of mathematics, Emporia State University, Kansas"Mathematics Homework and Grading in a PLC at Work really brings the Yin and Yang of homework and grading together with a powerful awareness! This resource could truly be the starting point for change that would bring equity to student engagement and learning. The authors emphasize the power of many completing the circle of change, which will positively influence and improve student learning through an increased focus on mathematical understanding and reflection as part of student knowledge of mathematical content and processes."
