SHARE GROUPS
Share groups are professional training series designed
to meet the needs of instructors of specific curriculum areas--biology, chemistry, foreign
languages, home and careers, and speech therapy. The objectives of the share groups
are to enable instructors to share activities and instructional strategies, expand and
enrich classroom programs by developing new activities that are aligned with the NYS
Learning Standards, increase linkages, increase collaborative opportunities, facilitate
implementation of technology in the instructional program, and address specific
topics of the curriculum area. Share groups meet once a month for six months
throughout the school year, whereby participants earn in-service hours. For more information on specific share groups for the Fall, please
call the Teacher Center of Cheektowaga at 716-632-1042.
