The Wisconsin Mathematics Council’s Elementary Listserv is designed to be a place for elementary teachers to communicate about the mathematics that is happening in the classroom, as well as share assessment and teaching ideas. It can also be the place to pose any questions you have. The listserv will be facilitated by teachers who are in the classroom, just like you. |
