| The second annual Nebraska Association of Teachers of Mathematics
(NATM) summer conference will be held July 25-26, on the Doane College
campus in Crete, Nebraska.
Besides the regular sessions that cover a multitude of math topics,
the conference will have two special guest speakers. Dr. Doug Christensen,
Nebraska Commissioner of Education, will give a general talk on
Thursday. Jim Rubillo, executive director of the National Council
of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM), will present at a session on
Thursday and another on Friday.
Thursday night there will also be a special attraction as all participants
will help in making a giant blue whale. Come and see a plastic model
of the largest animal on the planet come to life in the parking
lot.
The campus at Doane is always a relaxing environment to help get
you ready for the next school year. The great outdoors, the speakers,
the food, and the conversation are guaranteed to be a perfect place
to add flavor to your teaching career.
