1st grade is doing a daily CGI lesson as part of the opening. Many children are getting proficient. Kdgn. student teacher from UNI was familiar with CGI from a class. Susie modeled lessons and the student teacher continued using CGI with students. Discussion was held about how to move students from one strategy to another more efficient one. Teachers have been working on helping students who draw organize their drawings for efficiency. |
