Coaching is a supportive, job-embedded, ongoing, and personalized form of professional learning. The work of coaching is built on the goal of supporting and empowering teachers to increase student learning, create positive student identities, and develop confident users of mathematics. Just as becoming a highly skilled teacher is a journey, so too is becoming a highly skilled mathematics coach or developing a robust mathematics coaching program.

The nine essential actions for mathematics coaching and coaching programs as identified in the NCSM Essential Action series: Coaching in Mathematics Education (2018) are shown below. Select each action to explore tools, videos, and books designed to support and strengthen mathematics coaching practices and programs.

Start With Students' Strengths in Mathematics

Rather than focusing on the challenges of the 2020-2021 school year, we must build and capitalize on our students' strengths and opportunities in mathematics.

Continuing the Journey: Mathematics Learning 2021 and Beyond provides leaders and teachers with clear guidance as they create an environment for safe and supportive mathematics teaching and learning and promote a school structure that eliminates rather than solidifies challenges for all students.

Developed by a coalition of leading international mathematics education organizations, including National Council Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM, Association of State Supervisors of Mathematics (ASSM) and NCSM: Leadership in Mathematics Education, this important resource highlights actions in three core areas:

Grade-level Content

Equitable, Effective Teaching Practices

Advocacy

Summer 2020 Content

We live in uncertain times. Public health is at the forefront of our minds and our schools have been disrupted in ways we have never seen. While no one can predict how education might look in the coming months, it is in the best interests of our students to strategize how we might best meet their needs in the upcoming months.
-NCSM and NCTM, 2020

NCSM and NCTM have published a joint document to provide guidance for mathematics teachers and leaders at all levels to make informed decisions for next steps due to COVID-19.
