StoryTown Professional Development This Summer

This summer, we are offering a professional development session on StoryTown open to all K-6 teachers. The training is being offered on two dates: June 10 and July 15. The exact same activities will occur on both dates, so you only need to pick one. Hopefully, one or the other will fit into your schedule.

Grades K-3 will come in the morning (8:00-11:00). Grades 4-6 will come in the afternoon (12:00-3:00).

The morning sessions (8:00-11:00) will be for teachers in grades K-3. The afternoon sessions (12:00-3:00) will be for teachers in grades 4-6. The stipend for this training is $75 for the 3 hours.

The location will be at R. L. Young. The exact rooms will use will be determined later according what area of the building is being cleaned at that particular time. Check TeachTalladega periodically for updates.

To sign up for the StoryTown, go to PDWeb. Click the “PD Titles” tab and then “Search the PD Catalog.” In the PD Titles box, enter 194-45. “Harcourt StoryTown” is the result you are looking for. Sign up for the appropriate session.

We have submitted our purchase order to Harcourt and they have processed our teacher materials. As soon as we get more information on when those will arrive, we will pass it along.

Once we get into the summer, TeachTalladega will be the most efficient way that we can keep teachers informed on this or any other activity. Please make reading it something you do periodically.
