Summer '07
Math - Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I
have to attend on specific dates with my school?
During the summer, you will have the opportunity to work with
colleagues teaching the same grade as you at schools near to
yours. During the school year, you will come together again
to share your successes and struggles with this same cohort of
people. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to attend your
summer courses at the location assigned to your school.
What
if I cannot attend on the dates required for my
school?
In this case, please sign up for another date in the summer that
works for you.
I
teach a multi-age classroom. Which grade level should I sign
up for?
You may select any grade level
you teach. In addition to the two-day training, a third day
of training is provided for teachers of multi-age classrooms to
assist them with the unique challenges of this
assignment.
Do I
have to attend? Will I be paid? How much?
This training is
mandatory. Therefore, teachers will be paid at the mandatory
rate of approximately $32 per hour (2 days of training = $384, 3
days of training = $576).
Will I
receive my teacher’s materials at the trainings?
Given the volume of books to be
delivered, no. Materials will be delivered directly to your
school. Of course, materials will be available for your use
during the trainings. |
