We are requesting that during the function you give a brief word on the importance of integrating real life learning context in the teaching of Mathematics. We are also asking of your organization to lead a day of training for these teachers on using math related softwares, using research based learning in teaching and maintaining a math website at the school.
This event is in keeping with your organization’s belief that Math is not abstract but is real and applicable to every aspect of life. We are aware that you fervently support the integration of technology in teaching of the content area that will positively engage students and promote mastery of the content. This workshop will provide teachers with more expertise in the use of technological teaching resources that are directly related to students’ experiences and interest. Thus making the learning process more meaningful and relevant to real life contexts. As this event will diminish the abstract theoretical approach of teaching and promote students’ interest in mathematics, we anticipate your timely and favourable response.
Yours respectfully

    This agreement will contain a code of conduct, in which the children can contribute their thoughts, which will incorporate issues concerning copyright, privacy, and proper use. As an educator I will instruct my students on the correct, ethical, use of computer know-hows as I introduce other age appropriate skills. Some of the areas I will place strong emphasis on are honesty, being trustworthy, and respecting the privacy of others. In addition to these areas of concern I will stress the importance of honoring copyright laws to avoid plagiarism. To ensure my students are aware of how to avoid plagiarism I would present a Power Point teaching the proper way to cite resources. I would show this resource intermittently throughout the year to make sure the concept is not forgotten. Through my effort my students will become responsible cyber-citizens (Baum, 2005). The incidence of plagiarism has become more become more widespread because it is easy to get the information by visiting websites on their specific topic. Other less known Codes of Computer Ethics I will address include is the use of all capital letters is considered yelling and therefore impolite, and that humor and sarcasm are viewed as criticism…

    I hope you enjoyed your Spring Break. You have been an amazing teacher, delivering humor, personality, and superb lessons in your classroom. Since mathematics is formula based and does not alter, each course builds onto the last; therefore each class taken in high school aids in college, in the workplace, and life in general. However, having the knowledge base is not the sole component in being successful in any particular subject. Sometimes it is the way the material has been taught, or instilled in our minds. In high school my foundation of mathematics was formed through Algebra 1 my freshman year, Geometry my sophomore year, and Pre-Calculus my senior year, all which had an immense impact in my mathematic skills.…
