If you're anywhere near NC on August 12, 2008, this would be a fantastic math workshop to attend. Focuses on gr. 2-6. Laura is an exemplary 4th gr. teacher, nationally board certified, with 26 years of experience who is a highly respected, award-winning teacher and author of 10 books for teachers. Her hands-on workshops are loaded with great math strategies, tools and original materials. I have spent time in her classroom and know she practices what she preaches with great student achievement results! You won't be disappointed!
