About book Pathways To The Common Core: Accelerating Achievement (2012)

At last a book that inspires educators to raise their sights above the politics of the Common Core and focus instead on the unprecedented opportunity these new standards create. Loaded with practical examples, Pathways to the Common Core provides detailed explanations of the standards and thoughtful considerations for implementation. It will propel educators toward the rigorous, ambitious teaching that can truly accelerate student achievement.---Dr. Erin McGurk, Director of Educational Services, Ellington Public Schools, CT I can't say enough about this book. Calkins, Ehrenworth and Lehman have broken down the standards in a way that makes them understandable and attainable. This is definitely a book to purchase. Mine is now full of writing, highlighting and sticky notes. I go back to it repeatedly. However, thanks to this book I can also comfortably read the standards directly as they were written. I highly recommend this read for all teachers and school librarians.
