Specific Recommendations for Portfolio Documentation:

Subject Matter Standard I: Hannah needs to write standards-based lesson plans where she incorporates multiple
representations, technology, and appropriate mathematical tools. She will need to address how in her lesson plans that she
helped struggling students, met academic language standards, and explained the purpose and use of formative and summative
assessments in helping students develop understanding of the mathematical content.
