Let’s Practice Finding Resources!

Use the filtering tools to find appropriate resources in the Marketplace for the following scenarios:• You are supporting the launch of the Common Core State

Standards. Find a resource in the marketplace that you can use as a resource for you as you plan a professional development or that with your staff/teachers (either for your own information or to use directly with your staff/teachers).

• 10% of your staff consists of new teachers who you anticipate will encounter issues with basic classroom management. Find a resource that will be helpful to you as you support them as you coach them over the first few weeks of school. (Alternate for district leaders: You are planning your annual new teacher orientation. Find a resource that will be useful for this event.)

• Find a resource that will support a district/school site initiative for the coming school year.

• Recommend one of the resources you found to one or more of the teachers in your training account.
