WORLD CAFHector Calderon

WORLD CAF1: At your table, decide who will be the host school and this trio

will remain at the table. Someone from the host trio is

responsible for keeping time and ensuring that there is equal air

time across schools. The host should pause to ask clarifying

questions.

2. There will be 3 rounds of questions, the first two lasting 20

minutes and the last round will last 25 minutes. Each of the

rounds will focus on a different aspect of the goals of ESI.

3. Please treat this as an opportunity for dialogue and sharing

across schools. Refer to the handout that is an ideas catcher for

your convenience. We also hope this will be a way to collaborate

and learn together. Be open to new ideas.

When you switch, do not travel with the same schools.

ROUND 3: RIGOROUS ACADEMICSGiven that 90 percent of a young persons time in school is spent

in class in front a teacher, how are you approaching the

instructional changes needed to support academic development ofBlack and Latino young men?

We also know that college readiness is defined largely by some

external benchmarks in math and ELA. In math especially, we

know that Black and Latino young men do not have access to

higher-level courses that prepare them for college. What have you

done with 9th graders that shows promise and how are you

measuring this? How will you focus on math next year?
