Hello all, my name is Reg Ruhlin, and I teach math at Brewer High School. I am also the math curriculum leader for grades 6 - 12, a new position that just started this year.
Brewer HS has just started a 9th grade team model, along with co-teaching and algebra support for the struggling students. I am one of two math teachers on the ninth grade team and also co-teach two sections of Alg 1 with a special ed teacher.
One of my main jobs this year as the curriculum leader is to oversee and facilitate the implementation of the Common Core Standards. My biggest hope is to gain better working knowledge of the standards, especially at lower grades so that I can lead a successful implementation at the high school.
My biggest fear is finding the time! It's been a busy year so far! But I'm looking forward to participating in this model of learning.
