Student Assembly Professional Development

Most school districts are facing a shrinking professional development budget. This unique professional development requires no substitutes for your teachers, thereby lowering your overall costs.

Mr. Mendieta will show how to use active learning strategies that support the new core standards to engage a group of about 150 students in problem solving and mathematical conceptual development. Four teachers will bring their students to a cafeteria or auditorium (up to 150 students at one seating), repeating this process up to three times during the day for a total of 450 students.

Students will have fun while learning important mathematics and will have the opportunity to win prizes. Teachers will learn effective teaching strategies and will walk away with a set of additional active learning strategies they can use all year long.
