Knowledge is Power!
S.E.A.L.
Montgomery Elementary has embraced the Sobrato Early Academic Language (S.E.A.L) model that integrates the teaching of science and social studies with enriched language and literacy. This model also encourages a strong partnership between families and teachers in developing the literacy and language of their children, while affirming and supporting home language. We currently use the S.E.A.L model in grades TK-3 and will soon expand to grades 4-6. Within our S.E.A.L. classrooms, you will see evidence of rich oral language combined with effective research-based teaching practices that foster higher-level thinking, creativity, and collaboration.
