Paine K-2 Teachers Learn with Regional Teachers

Members of the Paine Elementary K-2 math OGAP Professional Learning Community had the opportunity to visit Leeds Elementary recently. Sessions on problem solving situations and counting collections were led by OGAP representative, Leah Pendergrass. Teachers were given the opportunity to observe these skills in practice in a first grade classroom. Teachers are looking forward to bringing this knowledge back to Paine as Mrs. Pendergrass visits and models effective problem solving and early numeracy strategies with K-2 teachers. Attending this day were kindergarten teachers Donna Walker and Gina Lackey, first grade teacher Jeanette Cerisano, and second grade teachers Kay Shumate and Beth Ann Marshall. Accompanying the teachers was math coach, Donna Brumlow
