Tito, the guinea pig in Mrs. Willson's 6th grade math class, enjoys helping students during their W.I.N. period at Camden Middle School!
W.I.N stands for “What I Need” periods. They are a new addition to the program at Camden Middle School this fall. They are taking the place of ELA Lab, Math Lab, Learning Lab, and Guided Study.
W.I.N periods offer a flexible student-centered approach to learning, allowing teachers to group students based on their individual needs. This will allow our staff a better opportunity to provide targeted interventions and personalized instruction, and give students the support they need to thrive. And perhaps some time with a friend like Tito, too!

We also found a few interesting biographies for them to use in the 6th grade Wax Museum Project late this year and the 5th grade Social Influencer Project.
