Submitted Materials Available for Review
April 12, 2007 Adoption
All of the submitted instructional materials are
available to the public for review. A list of
Local Resource Display
Centers
(LRDCs) can be viewed on the CDE website. The
materials are scheduled to be on display beginning
April 12. Check with the LRDC near you to make sure
that the materials have been received and are ready
for public viewing.
The note taking guides being used by CRPs and IMAPs contain the criteria for evaluating the alignment of instructional materials with the content found in the Mathematics Standards and Framwork. There are three guides - one each for evaluating Basic, Intervention, and Algebra Readiness materials. As the CRPs and IMAPs review the programs they are assigned, they will be using these guides to take notes and evaluate the programs. During July, the reviewers will be using these notes during the panel deliberations. The guides are very similar. The only difference is grayed out areas that do not pertain to the program.
These guides can be useful for the public to use while they visit the LRDC nearest them to vew the submitted materials.

SB472 ELL Math Institute Update
April 09, 2007 ELL
Here
is the latest information I have concerning the SB
472 ELL Math Institute. When the SB 472 ELL
Committee finished its work two days during the March
19 week, they left with the understanding that math
had been included for a Secondary Institute and a
provision for at least two days of math during the
Elementary Language Arts Institute. However,
when I talked to Phil Lafontaine of CDE on March
28th, he told me that the ELL language being reviewed
by CDE did not include math. The only thing
that was included is that math vocabulary could be
considered as part of other subject area academic
language in the Secondary Language Arts
Institute.

Thoughts from Royce Page
April 02, 2007 Adoption
I
wanted to again extend admiration for all of the IMAP
panel members and for the level of expertise as well
as the endurance quotient that was demonstrated
throughout the four day process. During the
publisher's presentations that I attended on
Thursday, I also took notice of several astute
questions that were ask by panelists. I
encourage all of the panelist not to get bogged down
in all of the check lists that accompanied the Five
Categories that you are considering, but to save time
for some in depth analysis as well.
