Lots of great ideas and information provided... as well as numerous, voluminous resources that I can continue to learn from for quite some time. I really appreciate leaving the workshop with lots of things to look over and continue learning from.

Using more time to develop the discourse of the topic discussed in Math will benefit all the learners in my class and myself as a teacher.
