Inservice Workshop

Jim will visit your site and work with your teachers for two days, including one evening meeting on the first day. This is a hands-on workshop to help teachers implement the “Success Strategies”.  Teachers will discover their own learning style, work with a complete custom-made middle school math program, and participate in role-play activities to expand their ability to create a classroom climate that improves the learning environment to enhance math achievement and improve classroom behaviors. 

Many schools (and districts) have found the workshop is also a great team building experience for staff members. Along with the instructional materials, the workshop teachers participate in games and activities that expand students’ willingness to work as part of a learning team. Jim has been teaching since 1972 (that’s 54 years) and shares a wealth of useful experiences. At age 79, he still works half-time teaching “Quick Start Math” in grades 6 - 8.
