Grants 2008-2009
***GWRC Teachers as Readers Grant
***
Greater
Washington Reading Council is committed to helping teachers further
their professional development in reading and writing. A
teachers-as-readers grant is available to GWRC members for the
2008-2009 school year as one way to support that growth.
To
apply for the grant, form a group of 10-12 people in your school and
select one professional book and three children’s books to
read. Plan to meet approximately 6-8 times during the 2008-2009
school year to discuss what you’ve read and how it will impact
your teaching.
This is a matching funds grant, which means
that GWRC will pay half of your proposed budget. You must
secure another funding source to pay the remainder.
