Goals for 2-day SNAP Training on July 21 & 22

* To put a concise, diagnostic assessment tool in the hands of classroom teachers and special educators.
* To raise teachers’ awareness of the multi-faceted nature of early numeracy.
* To enable teachers to differentiate instruction in early numeracy in their classrooms in order to meet the range of developmental needs of all students.
* To provide teachers with a formative assessment system for tracking individual, group and whole class growth in early numeracy.
* To provide teachers with exemplar instructional strategies.

Who Should Attend SNAP Training?

SNAP is appropriate for all educators working with children who are functioning within the range of early numeracy concepts that are typically associated with kindergarten and first grade. The SNAP interview-style assessment results in data that indicate a child’s development along six progressions. The classroom summary profile folder provides clear direction for designing lessons that will ensure progress for each child.

Early Bird discount of $25 if registered by June 3, 2009.
