In this session, we will focus on the district essential standard internalization protocol (DESIP) for Expressions & Equations as outlined by our district. Participants will engage in thorough discussions to better understand and internalize these standards, ensuring they are well-equipped to effectively teach these concepts. Additionally, we will share and exchange strategies for teaching Expressions & Equations, allowing educators to enhance their instructional methods and support students in developing critical skills. Together, we'll explore best practices and collaborate to foster a deeper understanding of Expressions & Equations among our students.
