Cross-Curricular Lessons Using Concept Mapping 
Tuesday, June 10 9 am-4 pm | $125 CSD member; $195 non-member
As you know, the MAP test requires the use of graphic organizers. Come to Cooperating School Districts‘ tele and find out about software & online resources that make it easy to create webs, Venn diagrams, timelines, outlines and flow charts. You will learn to customize them with pictures, colors, arrows, etc. Kidspiration, Inspiration, and SMART Ideas are all software programs that help students assimilate new information using visual learning techniques. Through these applications and graphic organizer websites, students can organize and categorize information, brainstorm ideas, make connections, understand concepts and express and share their thoughts. This one day workshop will show you ways to use these technology tools in all content areas at all grade levels! Don’t miss out. One graduate credit is available if you take this course. Teachers, to register for this professional development session, go here.
