Introducing Workshop In a Box

"Workshop In a Box" is a great way for teachers to improve instruction with great hands on activities, centers, and games that will help them to differentiate instruction in their classrooms with effective activities. Teachers can work on the activities in their box in school or at home in their own time.

Included in the box is a resource binder, materials, a Learning Log, Evaluation, and lots of activities and ideas. There are more than 5 hours of activities to choose from. At the end teachers will send in their Learning Log and Evaluation to receive a certificate of 5 hours of professional development.
