Small Group Instruction, Plus Cooperative & Social-emotional Learning
Students actively engage in collaborative activities that promote teamwork, communication, and critical thinking skills by integrating Kagan's cooperative learning strategies and implementing small group instruction through Daily Three and Daily Five. Moreover, we embed the Second Step program for Social and Emotional Learning (SEL) into our curriculum, fostering emotional intelligence, empathy, and conflict resolution abilities among students. These approaches create a comprehensive learning environment supporting academic and social-emotional growth.
