Registering here will only register you for the April 3rd date of the three-day series. If you will be attending all three sessions, please register using the series option on March 19th. Please note that your registration will indicate a $600 charge. Manual adjustsments will be made for the team billing price as described below.
Goal: To provide an in-depth study of the CCSS in Mathematics for content specialists, coaches and/or teachers who can be called upon to help lead or support the move to full implementation of the CCSS in your district. We realize that even if you choose to purchase or adopt a ready-made curriculum, it will be important to have someone who has a deep and practical understanding of the standards at each grade-band to assist teachers, answer questions, and help build capacity at the classroom level.
Content: We anticipate that each day (three or four day total) of the series will be devoted to a specific grade-band of the standards (elementary, middle, HS) and will provide participants with a solid understanding of the CCSS underpinnings, challenges, and implications for classroom practice for that particular level. Participants will be entitled to use all of the Deeper Study training materials with teachers, support staff and/or administrators in their home district.
Trainers: These workshops will be led by content specialist Tim Young along with
CESA #4 staff using the Deeper Study materials from CESA #7. Math and ELA sessions will happen simultaneously in different rooms with different presenters. The content specialist leading this series was trained in the use of the Deeper Study materials at CESA #7. Tim Young is the mathematics department chair and a high school math teacher in Black River Falls.
Participants: We believe the ideal candidates for this training will be those who possess leadership abilities, understand effective classroom practice, and have solid mathematics content knowledge.
Teams: Districts that purchase this training package may send a team of up to three people to each of the training days. Cost for this series will be $600 per content area. Each day of the series will run from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
Registration: Pre-registration for all participants is required
