LITT Talk # 3: Getting the Heart of the 5 E Lesson
Last weeks' LITT Talk emphasized how the process of inquiry aligns strongly to the process of developing literacy skills.
This year, we are utilizing the 5E instructional model in science and social studies to promote active, collaborative, inquiry-based learning. Through this process, teachers share the stage with their students as they engage in real-world problem solving and meaning making.
Take a look at the 5Es in action!
