Math Summer Institute

Math Summer Institute 2016

In August of 2015 more than one hundred elementary school Mathematics teachers and consultants came together for a four-day intensive workshop. Dr. Juli Dixon and her team animated the sessions and left the excited participants asking for more. Those who participated last summer are invited back for a second round. In addition, a second group of more than two hundred teachers from across the province are being invited to participate in similar training with the same dynamic team of presenters. Each School Board/Association has been given a designated number of places, so if you are interested in participating contact your Mathematics Consultant.

Visitors are welcome.

LCEEQ is collaborating in organizing the STEMpower: Empowering Youth through Science and Technology Teachers’ Conference which for the first time will be part of the Science Festival.

Strategies for Success in the ELA classroom

Spotlight ACES

Are you an elementary school teacher?

Join us for two days on August 18th and 19th to plan and discuss strategies for establishing an effective environment for student learning and assessment within your classroom. The focus is English Language Arts and the workshop is geared towards new teachers as well as teachers in the early stages of their career. Teachers will leave with a plan for integrating technology into their teaching. They will also leave with an engaging project that they can use immediately in their classroom for promoting talk, reading and writing through children's literature.
