What a great SEL strategy! Vision Boards help motivate students to work towards tangible goals that they can see. #GISDSELStrong #SELWorks

AVID in the library yesterday to create vision boards! Students reflected on their goals set at end of last semester & used these to create a representation of their goals & motivations. Lots of engagement! @CCBMS_Braves @AVIDGISD @GISDREADS @gisdnews @gisdmagnets @gisdSEL

My 2 assistants of the week preparing our morning meeting! While I set up initially, the kids lead their learning for the class- tying in hands-on learning standards, SEL, teamwork, and conversation skills. So proud ☺️ #montessori @Herfurth_Bronco @GISDTLD @gisdmagnets @gisdSEL
