📚✨ Exciting learning in action at Peter Marshall Elementary in Magnolia! Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grade teachers are intentionally integrating @ocdeptofed @NTCProjectGLAD strategies into Benchmark Adelante Unit 2 during their customized follow-up training. Trainers Patty Chavez and Jen Salas are having a blast creating a comparative input chart to support the 2nd grade opinion writing prompt, while also incorporating the newly launched GMS GLAD® Mapping System! 🌟💡 #OCDE #GLADStrategies #BenchmarkAdelante #TeacherTraining #InnovativeEducation #PeterMarshallElementary

Exciting things happening at Potrero Elementary in El Monte SD! 🌟 Our Project GLAD® trainers in training are making a real impact on students’ learning experiences. 📚✨ Witnessing this transformation is truly inspiring! 🙌 What makes GLAD® different is...

It also empowers teachers by giving them strategies they can use immediately." -Ann Corbin, Project GLAD® @ocdeptofed @ntcprojectglad @elmontecitysd @losangelescoe @kcsosofficial @esd_105
