37 <br /> 1 Slide #44 <br /> What Teachers Are Saying About AIM <br /> "Being a part of this AIMS course has shifted my teaching <br /> style from teacher centered to student centered. When <br /> planning lessons my overarching goal is for students to <br /> understand the "why" verses the "how". I have also <br /> enjoyed getting my students talking and their <br /> mathematical thinking with the math talk chain. It has <br /> allowed my students to really self reflect and listen to what <br /> their peers are saying and add on to the discussion." <br /> THINK(AND ACT) '® <br /> 2 <br /> 3 <br /> 4 Slide #45 <br /> Discussion -n <br /> STRATEGICPLAN <br /> 2022-2027 <br /> L! <br /> 6 Commissioner Hamilton said she likes the academic return on investment perspective. <br /> 7 She asked if the district could provide information to the Board on programs that worked and <br /> 8 those that did not.
