Kentucky’s first Math Teachers’ Circle is giving middle school mathematics teachers in northern Kentucky the chance to work out their problems both literally and figuratively, as they can exchange ideas with professors and math professionals and take time to rediscover mathematics.
The Northern Kentucky Math Teachers’ Circle (NKMTC) recently hosted a five-day workshop for more than 20 middle schools from nine northern Kentucky school districts. The event was featured in the state teacher magazine, Kentucky Teacher, in an article titled,”Bringing northern Kentucky math teachers into the circle.”
