NM Math Teachers and educational community members,
We are thrilled to announce the launching of NMCTM Saturday Snapshots, monthly sessions where local NM math teachers provide remote professional development sessions. The first four sessions will be brought to you by our very own NMCTM board members. Calendar details, session times/descriptions, etc., are provided below. Some sessions are synchronous and others’ asynchronous – make sure to look at the details to prepare accordingly.
Also, at NMCTM, we are all teachers, so we are acutely aware of the demands being placed on you right now. We hope these sessions give us a little time to share and learn remotely and safely together; strategies, tips, insights that we can all collectively bring back to our local communities. We look forward to meeting with you, and even more, we hope you join us in this project.
Is there a topic you would like to see us cover but we are missing from the list below?
