Hear from a Math Teacher Using YPAR
In the video below, Karmel Abutaleb, a math and computer science teacher at Natividad Pagan International Newcomers Academy in Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD) shares her experience using YPAR in her classes. She is interviewed by Maggie Rahill, an English language arts (ELA) teacher at John Marshall School of Engineering, also in CMSD. Maggie also uses YPAR in her ELA courses. In the interview, Karmel answers the following questions about her SchYPAR work: What would you tell a teacher thinking about implementing YPAR in their classroom? Tell me about a recent YPAR lesson. How do you integrate YPAR into the subject-based standards that you have to teach? How do you make YPAR fit with all the things that you have to do? How has YPAR influenced you and your approach to teaching?
