Today's math class requires teachers to skillfully engage a wide range of learners with diverse backgrounds while maintaining rigor and joy. To help build our capacities to meet this challenge, the Sonoma County Office of Education is offering two distinct options for paid professional development.
This professional development opportunity was designed to bridge the gap between theory and practice with a unique professional network of support and growth.
Participation in this opportunity includes:
Training on March 7-8, at Stanford University with Dr. Jo Boaler.
A three day training with practice and prep time from June 7-9, 9:00am - 3:00 pm with Emily Akinshin and Krista McAtee, Sonoma County Office of Education.
Co-teaching the Math Lab Class in one of the grades 4-6, June 12- 15 & 20- 23 , from 8:00 am - 1:00 pm. And then attend debrief sessions from 1:00 - 2:00. Additional reflection and prep can be done from 2:00- 3:00 during teaching days, and Friday, June 16, from 9:00- 12:00.
