for an explanation of the differences.
|
| I received some FPS
information and a
registration
form for this year, but don't see any dates for our region?
(Tallahassee) |
| No District exists up
in your area
right now.
Your area would fall in the "Open" district. Perhaps you will
like
the program and one will start! We will assist you in any way we
can. |
| Do you have a
schedule yet? |
| Schedules are being
updated constantly
for regions
with District Representatives. If you are not currently in a FL
FPSP
district you can set up your own dates and schedules but we recommend
following
the time frame you see for existing districts so as to not be too far
ahead
or behind the State recommend time frames. |
We are a small new
charter school and I
only
teach four classes, a total of 30 gifted kids in grades K-8.
I would like to get
appropriate materials
to
use with each age group class I teach (k-2, 3, 4-5 and 6-8)? |
| (see next
question) |
| I can't figure out
how to order the
materials
without signing up any teams? |
You may order any
materials using the
registration form without actually registering a team.
It is an excellent way to
learn and teach
kids
the process - and not expensive. This would count as your one
registration
and allow you to buy the others, also. Once you have the
materials,
copy as much as you want. |
| I want the year's
problems, the
community problem
solving materials, the curricular materials and possibly the scenario
materials,
if we can afford it. Can you help me? |
Scenario materials
& fees
are on the registration form.
CmPS materials and fees
are on the registration form.
Primary/Curricular
materials are on the registration form.
You could easily use that
packet for all
levels
of students that you are teaching this year. |
| Are there any other
FL-FPSP Components? |
| Another component is Action
Based
Problem
Solving - this is a nice
component
that can be used in the classroom. |
