Dear team,
This week, Melina Romero and Xime Ribadeneira presented a great Writing Workshop to 2nd grade team. They talked about the importance of observing and supportting learners not only in the development of writing ideas, but in the development of metacognitive skills to check their punctuation, spelling, reversals, omission of sounds, spatial organization, etc..
Thank you Meli for always going the extra mile and supporting teachers and students with your vast knowledge and experience! We are so lucky to have you! 💚
Have a great weekend everyone,
Moni & Marga
