Last Chance to Register! Reader's Workshop Using MONDO Materials for Educational Assistants
11/2/2009

TO:            Special Education Elementary Educational Assistants (EA), Special Education Teachers, Administrators
FROM:       Mary Kelly & Mary Garrison

On Wednesday, November 4, 2009 (an early release day), all Special Education Elementary EAs will be attending a one-hour session on using Mondo literacy materials during Reader’s Workshop (RW). The purpose is to familiarize the EAs with using Mondo materials in RW so that they learn how to access pacing guides and lesson plans and, under the direction of a teacher,  to use this information to provide previewing and reviewing assistance for the students they serve.

Two sessions are being offered --- from 1:15 pm to 2:15 pm & from 2:45 pm to 3:45 pm. EAs must register for one of the sessions on PDExpress. Please sign up for the earliest session that is feasible. If a course is full, then put your name on the waiting list.
