It’s always great to be in a knowledge-building classroom!! Mr. Boswell leads his 3rd graders through a discussion to determine what rich soil is!
Spoiler alert..rich soil doesn’t have a lot of money!!

@Amplify CKLA routinely uses read alouds to introduce and then deepen knowledge. Here, as part of the Habitat unit, the Mrs. Payton is focusing the class on their newest habitat, oceans!

Our #KnowledgeMatters School Tour has arrived in @wcpsmd in @MdPublicSchools.
Getting to observe 5th graders engaged in a discussion of Ruby Bridges was the perfect way to launch this tour.
Students focused on gaining knowledge to answer this ❓: How did Ruby make history?
Excited for the MSDE Social Studies Learning Lab @wcpsmd today and tomorrow! @DaveSovine @GaryWCPS

👏Your 2024 WCPS Teacher of the Year is RAYMOND WEBER! He has dedicated his 13-year teaching career @Salemave, where he teaches 5th grade. He is an excellent representative for all of our WCPS teachers. We wish him the best as he will now be considered for Maryland’s top teacher!
We celebrated Riley today for winning GOLD at the 2023 SkillsUSA Maryland State Championships. The Rockland Woods Elem staff and @wcpsmd is so proud of this future teacher! #growyourown @rebjam16 @GaryWCPS @DaveSovine @CTE_WCPS
