eMSS - Mathematics and Science mentoring program (archived) Opportunities to Honor Fellow Mathematics Educators The New Hampshire Teachers of Mathematics (NHTM) provides opportunities to recognize outstanding mathematics educators throughout the State of NH. The awards include: · The Richard H. Balomenos Memorial Award ~ This award is presented annually to a NH mathematics educator who has shown outstanding or meritorious service or leadership to the mathematics education community on a statewide basis. Nominations for this award are due by January 15, 2010. · The Fernand J. Prevost Mathematics Teaching Award ~ This award is given to a beginning teacher in his/her first, second, or third year who exemplifies the characteristics Dr. Prevost brought to his teaching. Nominations for this award are due by January 15, 2010. For more information or further details about any of these awards please visit http://www.nhmathteachers.org and click on the Awards & Scholarships Button, or contact Christine Downing at 863-2414 ext. 2103 or cdowning@newport.k12.nh.us NHTM is sponsoring a NCTM E-Workshop on February 8, 2010 at 2 Pillsbury Street, Concord, NH. (5th Floor PSU Graduate Offices). The E-Workshop goes from 4 to 5:30pm. The topic is: Meeting the Needs of ALL Students Using Differentiated Instruction: Secondary Grades 6-12 E-Workshop Leader: Arlene Mitchell The Follow-Up session is scheduled for March 22, 2010, from 4-5:30 pm at the same location. For further information please contact: Christine Downing at 863-2414 ext. 2103 or cdowning@newport.k12.nh.us New Hampshire Teachers of Mathematics (NHTM) Annual Conference The annual NHTM conference will be held on April 6, 2010, at SERESC in Bedford, NH. The theme of the conference is 4-6-10 Fun with Numbers. In addition, NHTM is looking for presenters for the conference. For further information about this event please visit www.nhmathteachers.org. Then select the conference link followed by NHTM Annual Spring Conference. The chair for this conference is Barbara Boschmans who can be contacted at bboschmans@plymouth.edu Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching (PAEMST) Nominations are now being accepted online until April 1, 2010 for the 2010 Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. The PAEMST Online Application is now available at www.paemst.org. To apply, teachers must first be nominated for the award. Teachers may nominate themselves or someone else (e.g., principals, teachers, parents, or other members of the general public) may nominate them for this award. Once nominated, teachers will receive an e-mail with a login and password to access the online application. The application deadline for elementary school teachers (grades K-6) is May 3, 2010.
The Presidential Awards for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching is the highest recognition that kindergarten through 12th-grade mathematics or science teachers may receive for outstanding teaching in the United States. Awardees are recognized for their contribution to teaching and learning and their ability to help students make progress in mathematics and science. In addition to honoring individual achievement, the goal of the award program is to exemplify the highest standards of mathematics and science teaching.

The NECAP GLEs do not represent the full curriculum in mathematics or reading/language arts. Rather, they serve as an assessment framework for the development of the testing blueprints for common assessments. Each of the partner states intend to develop revised curriculum frameworks to accompany the NECAP GLEs. The revised frameworks will support good instruction and local assessment by modeling concepts and skills not easily assessed in an on-demand large-scale assessment (e.g., mental mathematics, self-correcting while reading).

Achieve’s Comparison of the American Diploma Project Mathematics Benchmarks with GSEs Reviewed in this report are the draft GSEs for Grades 9-10 and 11-12, plus GSEs for Advanced Mathematics. The ADP Benchmarks in mathematics are used as the basis of comparison in this analysis to help Rhode Island ensure that its high school graduates are ready to succeed in the postsecondary world. ***Although this report is based on GSEs from Rhode Island, the alignment to New Hampshire GSEs is sufficient since this document includes the NECAP GSEs used by all states involved in the NECAP collaboration.*** Sample High School Mathematics Competencies (click on icon for document)

The project group developed a large collection of innovative mathematics assessment tasks for grades K to 12, and trained teachers to use these assessments in their classrooms. The library of over 300 mathematics assessment tasks developed during the project remains freely available through this web site. Teachers may use these materials in their own classrooms at no cost.
