My class is based in collaborative learning, structured on the Kagan style. We use multiple centers, small groups, manipulatives, and a focus on multiple intelligence to gain a higher depth of knowledge for all subject areas. Worksheets are a 4 letter word in our classroom! My students think, explain, respond, and discuss both in person and online to show a deep understanding of the standards, but still tailored to their ability and instructional level.
