Who K-3 teachers
What The K-3 IMPACT (Improving Mathematics Practices And
ClassroomTeaching) Fellows Program. Goals of K-3 IMPACT
are to help teachers:
- Strengthen their ability to teach mathematics through
inquiry and through the concrete experiences of children. - Improve their content understanding in mathematics.
When Throughout the school year, culminating in a one-day spring
mini-conference, called "Digging Deeper."

K-3 IMPACT for Early Intervention
Who Intervention Specialist, Inclusion Team, or classroom teacher who works with students struggling in mathematics
What A special version of the popular K-3 IMPACT Program that provides content in number sense, mathematical processes and resources that are effective in increasing academic achievement for all students.
Participants will:
- engage in an in-depth study of appropriate K-3 mathematics content on topic such as Numeracy and Mathematical Processes (IMPACT 1) or Geometry & Measurement (IMPACT 2) *Note, IMPACT 2 is open only to prior IMPACT participants and is held the first four Saturdays listed below.
- learn about research-based teaching strategies and intervention strategies.
- develop a deeper understanding of assessment and how to use it to guide instruction.
- share successes and challenges in implementing the instruction with students.
- participate in an online mathematics inquiry course through iDiscovery. This online course provides 2 semester hours of graduate credit to participants through Miami University of Ohio. (Tuition is included as part of the IMPACT program cost. NOTE: Registration fee of $100 to Miami University is NOT included).
- attend all Saturday sessions. Participants may obtain 2 semester hours of graduate credit for these sessions at an additional cost.
When IMPACT 1 Number & Operations
OR
IMPACT 2 Geometry & Measurement
IMPACT 3 (To be offered January 2011)
Classes will be held on Saturdays (October 2, November 20, December 11, 2010 and January 8, February 5, 2011) at the Columbus Campus of Ashland University (tentative)

K-6 Math Teacher Leader Network
Who K-6 teachers who form a cadre of practitioners knowledgeable
about Ohio's Mathematics Academic Content Standards, and
how to translate the Standards into classroom practice.
What The group meets twice a year and has a one-day conference
in the spring. Participants engage in active, open-ended
experiences related to:
- the Ohio Academic Content Standards in Mathematics
Standards and NCTM's Principles and Standards for School Mathematics - the assessment system of Achievement and Diagnostic Tests
- how to make teaching and learning effective, engaging, and in line with the Standards
-
a special emphasis on diagnosing and intervening with early mathematics learning difficulties
Cost There is a $150 per person fee to participate. Contact your district's curriculum director if you are interested in being a K-6 Math
Teacher Leader.
Who Grades 3-6 and Grades 7-10 mathematics teachers from central Ohio school districts.
What COMET (Central Ohio Mathematics Enrichment for Teachers) is an intensive, year-long professional development experience based
on the Ohio Mathematics Academy Program's Academies.
(MS)2: Maximizing Success in Mathematics and Science
This network of curriculum directors from Franklin County and surrounding districts focuses on mathematics and science issues and needs in their
districts. Through monthly meetings and an annual retreat, common challenges and curriculum strategies are discussed.
Often, the group recommends or designs professional development sessions that are open to teachers from all districts.
Minimal financial assistance to or a professional development contract with the TLC is appreciated, but not required for involvement.
Contact Kelli Shrewsberry, TLC director, at: kshrewsberry@teachinglearningcollaborative.org or call 614.65.9800 for details on your involvement.
