What you will see in ELA this year...
Mrs. Nill will be pushing in the ELA classroom at the beginning of units to support Mrs. Wyrembelski. Then students will be pulled twice a week to extend their thinking, comprehension, and application in ELA.
The slides that follow show the progression (and units) students have moved through since beginning GATE.
This year we will be focusing on the final two units that help students to further their abilities to reflect by using their critical thinking skills they have learned.
By the end of 6th grade it is our goal that they will be able to use these skills in everything they do today and every day to come.
