Lenny Provost
Years at LHS: 3Courses Taught: World History, US History I
Bio: Lenny is in his third year of teaching at HHS. Lenny came to education after working in the private sector. He did his student teaching with Bryan Ibbitson at the middle school level and then came to HHS after his time there. Lenny is involved with Team Adrenaline and has helped to build that program to a national contender at competitions. Lenny is pursuing his ESL license through the PETALLS program at UMass Lowell currently.
Lenny offered to share how he uses close reading to teach vocabulary comprehension. His classes typically start a new concept by skimming the reading and having students identify words that they don't understand in the context of the reading. Here Lenny is working with one of his 11th grade World History classes in this type of activity.
