      Mrs. Isom teaching Vocabulary

      Mrs. Isom found herself back in a Literacy classroom this morning. She modeled how to use the vocabulary wheel to Ms. Bowman's 3rd graders using a vocabulary word from their novel, The Orphan of Ellis Island. Vocabulary instruction happens daily, with the goal to expose students to the meaning of as many words as possible. This is also a way to improve reading skills and reading comprehension. #SESStandOUT #MakingCoreMemories #GreenbrierProud

    • Success Criteria

      Success Criteria

      Success Criteria is an instructional strategy that gives students a clear picture of what it takes to be successful in the lesson. Mrs. Wehlage and her students worked together to determine how they would be successful with identifying place value in the 1s, 10s, and 100s place. They were able to practice identifying the place values of numbers and were clear how to be successful with their I Can Statement. #SESstandOUT #MakingCoreMemories #GreenbrierProud
