Don't miss this wonderful opportunity to study the teaching of elementary and middle school mathematics and have someone else pay the tuition and fees. You will enjoy seven days of study which will focus on the paraprofessional/teacher role in the mathematics classroom. The course content will directly relate to the mathematics curriculum currently taught in elementary and middle classrooms, and will provide the paraprofessional/teacher with appropriate methods of mathematical instruction. Special education paraprofessionals and teachers are also encouraged to apply. There are no prerequisites for this workshop.
