Please find below responses to some of the frequently asked questions from today's session. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
This year's AdMIT sessions will be for principals only. As per the assurance document, the building principal is required to attend. Registration for these sessions is now available at the links below.
NEW FOR 2018-19 Today you will receive an invite to your Google classroom, although please feel free to use the access code as well. MITs have a separate Google classroom due to required grant submissions throughout the year. Please utilize the Google classroom
created for your particular role.
MIT Google Classroom access code: amtia39
+2 Teachers Google Classroom access code: i01igph
NEW FOR 2018-19 This year, MITs will be asked to administer the EasyCBM assessment to their intervention students at three intervals. This assessment is free and can be completed electronically. A tutorial will be provided in the Google classroom. EasyCBM scores will be uploaded to Infinite Campus by the District Assessment Coordinator. If you would like to register for EasyCBM in advance of the tutorial coming in September in order to review the assessments, please visit: https://www.easycbm.com/
NEW FOR 2018-19 This year, the Plus Two teachers will be asked to utilize a student work protocol with their students at three intervals during the year. You currently have access to a 20 minute webinar in your Google classroom that outlines the student work protocol and how it is to be used by the +2 teachers three times a year. The webinar includes information about the process for selecting the three students. Student work analysis on the three selected students will be uploaded by the Plus Two teachers to Abacus. The KCM Regional Consultant assigned to your school will support the implementation of the protocol this year.
Each MAF school will receive three visits from their assigned KCM Regional Consultant. RCs will contact the MAF team to coordinate schedules for these visits.
Please remember that at least 50 percent of the MIT's time must be spent delivering instruction to intervention students. The MAF team should collaborate weekly to improve mathematics instruction in classrooms. Using the student work protocol as a team (MIT, +2 Teachers and Regional Coordinators) allows teachers the opportunity to dive deeper into the standards to meet students' needs. This also gives the MAF team the opportunity to determine next steps the MIT and classroom teacher are able to focus on in the student's mathematics instruction.
Student consent forms can be accessed on this page under "Documents".
The MIT should collect student consent forms for all intervention students. Plus Two teachers should collect student consent forms for the three students identified for the student work protocol.
NEW FOR 2018-19 The teacher consent form will be completed electronically this year. Each MAF participant has an assignment within their Abacus portal for this task. If you have questions about accessing your Abacus account, please email abacus@nku.edu or visit Abacus Help .
Thank you for your dedication to Kentucky's students!
Sincerely,
Erin Chavez, KDE (erin.chavez@education.ky.gov )

Happy Summer MAF Community,
I hope everyone is enjoying their summer breaks and attempting to get some much needed rest and relaxation. This is the first time in five years that I am getting a traditional summer break. I know I am very excited and so our my boys. We have several things already planned.
Today is my last working day at KDE. It has been a very difficult time over the past several weeks. The entire process has rocked me to my core and made me question so many things. Change is difficult, but change without true understanding is even more of a challenge. I want to thank each of you for the kind words of encouragement and appreciation during this time. All of you are truly amazing. I am going to miss the MITs the most, because I truly believe in your work for students across the state. Please continue to push forward and advocate for the need for early mathematics interventions.
Please continue to email assurance statements to kde.maf@education.ky.gov . If you have any changes to staff, please send an updated assurance to the email address as well. Erin Chavez will be taking over as point of contact for MAF. Erin is new to this role, so please give her time to get her feet wet. I met with her early and tried to share everything I could with her. She has access to all documents, including amendments. She officially takes over the role on July 1st, so please welcome her to this new adventure.
Even though this is my "last" official day, I will still be available by email or cell thru June 30th. If you need anything, you know that I am always available to you.
Enjoy your summer. If you have any questions, please let me know.

Dear MAF Community,
To show the KCM's commitment to the MAF and our strong desire to create opportunities for students to make sense of problems and persevere in solving them, the KCM proposes a dramatic reduction in the professional learning pricing structure for the 2018-19 academic year. Through cost reduction, KCM will fully absorb the recent reduction in funding for each MAF school. MAF schools will only pay the price of participant materials for the Plus Two teachers. KCM will pay for all associated trainer costs, room rentals, and other support expenditures.
Please read the following email in its entirety as it contains extremely important information about the upcoming year.
PRIMARY GRADES: Selected primary grades teachers will proceed with the eight day course as registered.

Multiplicative reasoning in grades 4 & 5 builds on strategies and understandings developed in third grade. For example, students might use what they know about 5x7 to solve 5x70 or 5x69. But how do we support students in making these connections? Number talks and problem strings provide learners with opportunities to develop relational reasoning, a deeper understanding of the distributive and commutative properties, and extend these understandings to work with multi-digit and rational numbers.
