21 Jan '18

If you know math teachers in their first 5 years of teaching, this seems like a great (free) professional learning opportunity! CPM Educational Program Academy of Best Practices The Academy of Best Practices is a week-long institute focusing on best practices in teaching middle school and high school mathematics. Travel, room, and board are covered by CPM, and participants also receive a $500 stipend for the week. This institute is held in Seattle July 30 - August 3, 2018. More information can be found at cpm.org/abp<http://cpm.org/abp>. This institute is for any new math teacher, not just CPM teachers; this institute is not about the CPM curriculum. _______________________________________________ MathEdReunion mailing list MathEdReunion(a)lists.qc.cuny.edu To unsubscribe or change your preferences goto https://lists.qc.cuny.edu/mailman/listinfo/mathedreunion
