Registration opens for NCTM Annual Meeting

NCTM's national conference is coming to Denver and the Nebraska Association of Teachers of Math would like to take you there! NATM is organizing a 56-passenger luxury bus, or possibly two, to transport NATM members to Denver for the NCTM national meeting in April 2013. If you are not currently an NATM member, a small amount of money and a filled out form will get you there!

To register for NCTM, go to http://www.nctm.org/denver/. Save up to $80 when you register by March 15.

Although all the details have not been finalized, the plan is to have a rented luxury bus load some teachers first at Lincoln and then make three other stops along I-80 to pick up additional passengers. For a deposit of around $50 (total cost around $80), you could claim your spot on the bus. Start planning! The deadline for the deposit is Dec. 31.

Try to envision this scenario: Nebraska math teachers, already tied together by a common bond of students and mathematics, let an experienced driver take them down the road in style to an incredible convention that will change your teaching career forever! Not only will the sessions and national speakers be incredible, but the bonding and informal discussion during the trip will certainly be a breath of fresh air to help us gear up for all the trials, tribulations, and lesson plans that we face daily.

Participants will be required to register on their own for the conference and to make their own hotel plans. The bus would drop us off on Wednesday night, April 17, near several large hotels within walking distance of the convention center. The bus would then pick us up early Saturday afternoon, April 20, for the return trip after 2 days of incredible sessions on Common Core standards, technology, all levels of instruction, plus some nationally known motivational speakers.
