Training Services
for schools and districts
LIVE training sessions with Shannon tailored to your school's needs and focused math goals for the year.
Perfect for the staff that needs more support and customized training sessions or a staff that is just adopting the Math Expressions curriculum.
Do you need a more directed and supported customized training option to meet the needs of your teachers and instructional leaders?
We have professional development that is guided and individualized. Each session begins with a one-on-one conversation with Shannon where you decide on your goals and focus of the training.
You won't need to research, plan, or put together a presentation for your staff to help support their math instructional goals.
A training session with Shannon is simple and she takes care of it all.
She brings a wealth of knowledge, experience, research, and clear communication to help your staff expand their mathematics teaching!
She'll help you identify your goals, identify the type of learning, they type of ongoing support, and the type of accountability your staff needs.
All that is left to do is for you to come up with the focus or topic that you want, choose which grade level you want the training geared toward, and schedule the time.
Shannon helps teachers, instructional leaders, and students THRIVE in the mathematics classroom!
Your customized and supported plan with Shannon could Include any of the following or a combination of these options:
💡Unit Planning Workshops
Want your teachers to become expert mathematics instructors?
We will work through each unit and grade level separately. Want to improve on a particular unit or concept? Each can be purchased separately. During each session, teachers will develop their conceptual understanding of the math, content knowledge, and improved instructional methods.
Please note: Participants must be Math Genius Squad members to participate.
💡 Virtual Training Sessions
Are you looking for a training session to add to your professional development plan that is focused on best practices, mathematics instruction, and that integrates with the Math Expressions curriculum?
Choose between half day (up to 3 hours) or full day (4-7 hours.) and select either one-time session or intermittent-sessions throughout the year. During each training session, we will have time to be reflective, learn enhanced practices, and improve effectiveness.
💡In-Person Training Sessions
Need a way to motivate and inspire your teachers and instructional leaders?
In-Person training will provide a way for your staff to see the math in action with demonstration lessons, coaching, or training sessions?
