Volunteers in Partnership (VIP) places tutors and classroom assistants throughout Robbinsdale Area Schools in grades K-12. Do you live in the Golden Valley area? "We are looking for 6-12 tutors to help us kick off this pilot math program at a Golden Valley elementary school" says VIP coordinator, Jill Kaufman.
Origo Math is a company that provides supplemental math resources. Origo uses a set of resources called "Book of Facts" and "Box of Facts". These books and boxes contain lessons for basic facts (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division). The lessons always include an introduction, reinforcement of skills, practice, and extension to higher numbers. Volunteers will lead small groups of students through these 15 -20 minute lessons. The volunteers will most likely rotate through a few groups during each visit, teaching the same lesson for that day.
If you or someone you know is interested in dusting off their math tutoring skills and jumping aboard to assist our youth, contact Mary Jane Horton, RSVP Literacy Coordinator at mhorton@voamn.org or 952.945.4163 for more information!
