Tina meets with BPS 5th grade teachers Karly Kleinjan from Sunrise, Grayson Erling from Highland Acres, Taylor Wetzstein from Elk Ridge, and 4th grade teacher Katie Reiter from Sunrise (a former 5th grade teacher). The discussion focuses on concerns about missing the first 5th grade module and strategies to help students build essential skills in both Wit & Wisdom and the 95% Word Study resource. They also explore their hopes and aspirations for students as they prepare to transition to middle school next year.
