During the week of October 31st to November 4th, Professor Dr. Mahesh Sharma will come back to work with us in the Laconia School District. Professor Sharma will continue his work with teachers from Kindergarten to 12th Grade improve our math instruction methods. Mahesh's influence on our practice has been dramatically positive since he started consulting with us last Spring.
Dr. Sharma typically will spend his time with teachers introducing new practices/approaches to teaching mathematics, modelling these practices by teaching students in our classrooms (while teachers observe), and then meeting with teachers to debrief the observation, answer questions, and the like.
Our teachers find these learning experiences with Professor Sharma extremely beneficial, and with direct and immediate positive impact on their teaching and student learning. We are so fortunate and so pleased to have the opportunity to bring Mahesh Sharma to our school district.
If you have not yet had an opportunity to meet Dr. Sharma and hear him speak about how children learn mathematics (and how you can help them learn math concepts better and faster), please plan to join us for a special evening presentation with Professor Sharma at Laconia Middle School on the evening of Thursday, November 3rd, from 6:00-7:30pm.
We hope to see you there!
