TRAINING

I've been at this task of education for forty-two years. I believe math holds children back more than any other subject. Most teachers are pretty good reading teachers; they need help with teaching math. This program works and makes the teachers artists. I encourage all educators to learn more about the wonderful Pentathlon games. I have had students tell me it changed their lives. I have witnessed this. I am a dedicated convert.

The Pentathlon Institute provides many opportunities for teachers, coaches, parents and administrators to receive instruction in the successful use of the Mathematics Pentathlon program. A list of our trainings are located in the left menu. To set up a training in your area please contact us.

Research has shown that without an investment in a training program, games such as those in the Mathematics Pentathlon can often be instructionally misused. Understanding strategy game rules through solitary reading is, for most people, a laborious task. For most, learning the Mathematics Pentathlon games requires some form of hands-on experience. To ensure effective implementation, teachers, coaches, parents and administrators need to receive instruction in the appropriate educational uses of these problem-solving games and activities. Trainings sponsored by the Pentathlon Institute guide educators and parents to a richer understanding of the Mathematics Pentathlon program, thereby enabling them to pass this knowledge on to their students.
