Math for All Informational Meeting
Tuesday, April 13. (1:00 - 2:00 p.m.)
Presenter: Babette Moeller
Math for All is a professional development program designed to assist schools in implementing, high-quality, standards-based mathematics education for a wide range of students including those with disabilities. It is NOT a math curriculum, not is it tied to any specific K - 5 mathematics program. Rather it helps teachers use and adapt their existing materials to make them more accessible to a wide range of learners. If interested, join us for an information meeting to learn more.
