Hello Paras and Welcome to November!
Fall 2009 classes are winding down. Thanks to so many of you who took advantage of district offerings to earn PLUs. Parapro Connection I had 75 participants. Parapro Connection II had 42 participants. Parapro Connection 2009-2010 has 22 participants. Web Tools started with 12 and has 9. Tools for the Successful Parapro finished with 12. Computer Basics and Word Basics finished with 15. These numbers are impressive. Thanks for your support.
Winter/Spring 2010 registration begins November 30th. Classes can begin as early as January 11th but must finish by April 30th. Be sure to login to the PLS and register early...your courses tend to close quickly. Plus, courses offered Fall will not be offered Winter/Spring.
Winter/Spring 2010 will bring a new class to parapros called Color Me Successful. Based on the book that each school received last year, activities for each vignette and Wiki postings will continue to help paras grow professionally. The course awards 3 PLUs at its conclusion. And we have listened to you...some of you have asked for some face-to-face time for these online courses. So. Color Me Successful has scheduled 2 OPTIONAL face-to-face trainings at Blackwell ES's district lab on January 11 and 18. Elementary teachers can come 3-5 pm; Middle and High School teachers can come 5-7pm.
Hope you will join us for a new class focused on your needs. Please continue to let me know what other trainings you need. Have a great November and Happy Thanksgiving!
Lynn :)
