Enrichment
Programs What is
it?
An Enrichment Program is a 30-45
minute IDL connection from various areas in Kansas. They are LIVE
and INTERACTIVE for your students to enrich the subject area you are
teaching.
How it works:
Look at the calendar I have sent to
you via email or on this webpage and choose a program you would like to
have in your classroom, they get filled quickly so please do not
hesitate. Once you have chosen your program, email me your
choice with all the program information, your name, email, class size,
grade, and subject area. I will then sign you up for the program
and place it on the Enrichment Calendar.
You will also receive an email confirming your program.
Once your program has been placed on the
Calendar, you will receive a kit from Greenbush with the hands-on items
needed for your connection. It will also have pre and post
activities you may choose to use.
An instructor will come in to your room
using the IDL equipment that I will come set up in your classroom.
The instructor will use the same equipment which you receive in your
kit.
I will set the time aside to be in your
classroom during the session to provide assistance.
