2012 CPMP Course-Specific Implementation Workshops - Kalamazoo, MI

The Summer 2012 Core-Plus Mathematics Project Implementation Workshops are designed for mathematics teachers currently using Core-Plus Mathematics or planning to implement the curriculum. All workshops are conducted by experienced Core-Plus Mathematics classroom teachers.
