So much collaboration happening in our monthly ELD Specialists meeting today; unpacking the critical content of ELA standards through the lens of language acquisition AND drafting oral language rubrics aligned to WIDA PLDs. Great supports for our #LinguisticallyGifted students!

Too many people to thank for their part in supporting our 5th Grade PBL! Math, reading, writing, budget skills, and science were all applied while building model homes ready to withstand a hurricane! Excited to test and reflect tomorrow! #NHVoyagers @NHVoyagers @OrangeCoSchools

Got to spend yesterday afternoon with our @OCSCTE teachers modeling PWIM and Interactive Word Walls as instructional strategies to support our MLs! I can't wait for more opportunities to collaborate with this awesome group of teachers!

In the aftermath of Helene, the students of Watauga High School wrote & produced a short play to process their experience of the flood. This is the opening song, an original.
I am just…so proud & in awe of our young mountaineers.
