A
Head Start for 2004-2005
Here is a
great way to get a head start on your P.D. for 2004-2005
(and it's FREE)
From
Greg Drake,
Coordinator of Instructional Technology
Registration
for Fayette County's Technology Enhanced Classroom (TEC)
Conference will be closing soon. The conference will be June
2 at Paul Laurence Dunbar High School. The focus of the
conference is research-based programs and strategies with technology,
and how those programs and strategies can be used in your classroom.
We're
proud to announce that our luncheon keynote speaker will be Dr.
Ted Hasselbring of the University of Kentucky. Dr.
Hasselbring led a team of educators at Vanderbilt University who
developed the highly successful reading program, Read 180.
In his keynote, Dr. Hasselbring will share his expertise on how you
can use many different research-based programs to significantly
improve student achievement in your classroom!
More
than 25 other sessions will be offered throughout the day on topics
such as elementary writing forums, improving reading fluency among
elementary students, middle school mathematics, video production, and
web-based problem solving that increases standardized test performance among
high school students.
The
TEC Conference is free of charge. It's open to Kentucky
Classroom Teachers and Technology Resource Teachers.
Unfortunately we can only accept a limited number of registrants and
it's filling up fast, so please sign up soon! Registration
will end on Friday, May 7.

Hope
all of the Moms have a very special Mother's Day!
