Making centers meaningful Paige Brown and Susan Walters, MCIS Cori Dietrich and Heather Ensor, MSE i21 Teacher Academy, McNabb Middle School June 6-7, 2013
Session Objective This session will serve to correct any misconceptions teachers have about centers and offer ways to design and implement meaningful, effective centers that intentionally support the Common Core Standard(s). Teachers will participate in hands-on activities, Q & A sessions, and discussions focused on higher-level thinking. While this session will mainly target the needs of ELA and math teachers, content teachers are welcome. Photo from teacherzen.com
