*Great conversations during Monday's PD day regarding our students' progress, what is working, what isn't working and problem solving new strategies for the students that haven't made the gains we had expected yet. It is amazing to see all of the growth that we do have to celebrate up on the wall in the work room!
*Teachers having individual conversations with students about their report cards, their progress and their goals.
*For a quick vocabulary practice/review as the teacher displayed different engaging pictures on the smartboard, students used the vocabulary words in sentences to describe the picture.
*Student choice for their end of unit project to culminate their learning.
