As we expect space to be limited, only those who can commit to full workshop should apply.</p><p>Materials: “Tons” of handouts and appropriate resource texts daily for each participant.</p><p>Lunch: Each participant needs to bring their own brown bag lunch.</p><p>Optional Credit: Clock hours or 2 WWU Mathematics Credits (400-level) for the workshop.</p><p>Note: A $50 registration fee (i.e. a personal check made out to WWU Math Department) is required to confirm each person’s registration. This same check will be returned to those teachers who subsequently attend the workshop.</p><p>Register with your school representative by June 5, 2005…be sure to include deposit!</p><p>Again, space is limited and only those able to commit to the full workshop should apply.
