Encourage independent reading with appropriate level books. Discuss what they're reading and ask open-ended questions. Help students develop research skills by guiding them through simple research projects on topics of interest.
Math Understanding
Use visual models to help students understand fractions and decimals. Connect mathematics to real-world situations, such as cooking (measurements), shopping (money), and time calculations.
Developing Critical Thinking
Ask students to explain their reasoning and thinking processes. Provide opportunities for problem-solving and encourage them to try different approaches when facing challenges.
