Instructional Moment Monday
It’s Instructional Moment Monday!  

Ohio County Schools would like to take a moment to recognize great instruction. 

Check out Ms. Craig’s 4th grade class at Steenrod Elementary! 

Recently, we caught them working on identifying Greek and Latin roots and stems in words.  According to Paths to Literacy, “Learning Greek and Latin Roots is an excellent way to build students' vocabularies and to help improve their decoding skills. It has been said that students who know their roots can effectively double or triple their vocabularies.”  These roots and stems help make up the bulk of our vocabulary words, so having a strong understanding of how these roots work can help make our students stronger readers. 

Thank you Ms. Craig and 4th grade Steenrod Cardinals!
