[Time2000_t18 0049] Volunteers needed
by Naomi Weinman 08 Mar '16

Dear TIME 2000 Students, I am looking forward to seeing you all on Friday at LIMACON. The coordinator of LIMACON (John Chae, a member of T-1) has asked TIME 2000 for a favor: One of the presenters is doing a workshop on usage of the iPad and needs some assistants. she originally asked to limit the size to 15 but about 55 signed up and she needs some help. due to the size, she is afraid she won't be able to help everyone. I was thinking of assisting her by providing extra hands in the classroom with people who know how to handle and trouble shoot iPad. So i thought, what if about 5 students from TIME who are pretty tech savvy could volunteer to help just for that workshop. Please reply to this email if you would like to volunteer to assist in this workshop. Thank you.

Dear TIME 2000 Students, Dr. Artzt's annual reunion dinner will be held on campus in June. At the dinner we honor mathematics teachers who inspired QC students to become secondary school mathematics teachers. If you would like to nominate one of your past mathematics teachers for an award, please send your name, the teacher's name, school, and email address (if you have it), and a few sentences explaining why you are nominating the teacher. I look forward to reading your nominations.

[Time2000_t18 0042] Tutoring opportunity
by Naomi Weinman 23 Feb '16

23 Feb '16

A private tutoring service in Port Washington called the office because they are in need of tutors. Visit porttutoring.com to learn more about them. The Web site says you need a college degree to tutor but since they called and requested students, you should contact them if you are interested. Ronni Swain called the office and said, "I need emergency placement for students who can teach Common Core algebra 1, 2, and geometry." She said she has 13+ kids and the number is growing. Her contact information is: Call: 646 299-0066<tel:646%20299-0066> Email: info(a)porttutoring.com<mailto:info@porttutoring.com> Naomi Weinman TIME 2000/SEYS Powdermaker Hall 002 Queens College, CUNY 65-30 Kissena Boulevard Queens, NY 11367-1597 Office: 718-997-5377 Fax: 718-997-5173 TIME2000.qc.cuny.edu

[Time2000_t18 0041] FW: Hillside Arts and Letters Academy Portfolio Day 2016

-----Original Message----- From: Meghan Milana <mmilana(a)hillsidearts.org<mailto:mmilana@hillsidearts.org>> To: Naomi Weinman <qcnweinman(a)aol.com<mailto:qcnweinman@aol.com>>; Alice Artzt <qcartzt(a)gmail.com<mailto:qcartzt@gmail.com>>; frcurcio <frcurcio(a)aol.com<mailto:frcurcio@aol.com>>; theresa.gurl <theresa.gurl(a)qc.cuny.edu<mailto:theresa.gurl@qc.cuny.edu>> Sent: Thu, Feb 18, 2016 5:52 pm Subject: Hillside Arts and Letters Academy Portfolio Day 2016 Hello, I am currently a graduate Math Education student at Queen's College. I teach Algebra at Hillside Arts and Letters Academy in Jamaica, Queens. We are holding our annual Portfolio Day on Friday, February 26, 2016 from 11:30-3:00. On Portfolio Day our students in grades 9 and 10 showcase their best work from the first semester to guests and parents we invite from the community. It is always a challenge to bring guests in since most people are working during this time period. I thought this would be an excellent opportunity for undergraduate education majors to see a real classroom in NYC, interact with our 9th and 10th graders in round table discussions where they talk about their classwork from the first semester, and see different projects from our project based learning curriculum in all subject areas. Last year we had the pleasure of having one of your undergraduate students attend our event and I know she enjoyed it! I emailed you last year about this and was hoping that you would pass this email along to your undergraduate students again and encourage them to RSVP and attend Friday, February 26th. I also encourage all secondary education students to participate, since students will be presenting projects from all subject areas. My principal is more than happy to sign off for observation or classroom hours that are needed for education classes or certification. I just ask that if a student RSVP's that they will attend they plan to come to the entire event from 11:30-3. A lunch and reception will be held from 11:30 am - 12:30 pm. I attached the formal invitation to the email which explains more about Portfolio Day. As a Queens student myself, I would be honored to have my fellow classmates as guests at Portfolio Day. It is a truly inspirational day for students and educators. Please RSVP to MMilana(a)hillsidearts.org<mailto:MMilana@hillsidearts.org> by Wednesday, February 24th. Thank you, Meghan Milana Mathematics Teacher Hillside Arts & Letters Academy 167-01 Gothic Drive Jamaica, NY 11432 718-658-1249
