With a passage copied, students (and teacher!) spend time writing about how and why they choose the quoted passage.  The key component of SLW is sharing.

Little things like cleanliness, displays of student work, open doors to classrooms, laughter, respectful talk, presence of volunteers, and genuine smiles from both adults and kids are the barometers of school climate. If a school doesn’t earn this star, a parent doesn’t need to bother looking at the other criteria. Get your kids out quickly
