=TN Math Teachers Association Conference Proposal = See the following website for the proposal form and registration information, etc. about the conference: @http://www.tmta.info/conference.php

Add your group's topic and the names of people in your group in the table below.

Potential suggested topics:
 * Children's books aligned with content area & grade levels (such as for geometry or algebra, etc.)
 * Math Night - how to put one on & sample activities. I have a power point that I've used for this in the past that I can share for you to tweak.
 * Use of FACTs for teaching/assessing math (from our yellow Keely textbook)
 * Vocabulary games
 * PLT, WET, or WILD activities with a math emphasis - can plan to do a couple of sample activities with the group.
 * STEM Activities such as bottle rockets and angry birds, etc. (several of the science night activities would work well for this)
 * Ideas for teaching a particular topic that you found useful from our text, from Teaching Children Mathematics Journal, and other sources. Such as time, money, measurement, decimals, base-ten (options are endless here)
 * Web 2.0 Tools (such as Wordle, Wallwisher, Glogster, PhotoPeach, etc.) - there are laptop carts that the attendees can use for you to introduce a tool or 2 and allow them some work time on the computer.

=Potluck interest for April 27???= Please list your name and what you'd like to bring if you want to do a potluck below. We can have it right as we finish our bottle rockets around 12:00 or 12:15. We can have potluck with whoever is interested or if it's too much to think about bringing food on that day we could order pizza or something like that. I know your group is fond of pizza! :)
