Happy that the state is providing LEAs with this resource! I recommended it a year ago when we noticed speaking WIDA levels dropped! #ELLChat #ellchat_bkclub

Implementing language objectives can be a powerful first step in ensuring that English learners have equal access to the curriculum even though they may not be fully proficient in the language. - @ColorinColorado

I need to use more Kid President videos this year! @ccpspd1

[Lindsay Billings @mrslbillings]

A5: Simple! The first thing we do is watch @iamkidpresident’s pep talk and discuss how it applies to class, as well as our lives! This sets the tone for the year and allows Ss to feel comfortable, empowered, and of course, happy on the first day. #ChatB2S

[Kelley Falcone @Falcone_KB]

This is comforting! @ccpsPD1

[Lindsay Billings @mrslbillings]

A9: You won’t have everything figured out on your first day, let alone in your first year, & that’s ok! Some of the best teachers I know still don’t have everything perfected after 10, 15, or even 20 years. Take risks and make mistakes! They make you better. #ChatB2S

[Kelley Falcone @Falcone_KB]

Love this back to school "get to know you" idea. @ccpsPD1

[Lindsay Billings @mrslbillings]

A7: In the past, I have used “Bio bags” in which students fill a brown bag with three things that describe/are important to them. They present them to their peers so everyone gets a chance to show who they are! I go first, which after nine years, is still scary! #ChatB2S

[Scholastic Teachers @ScholasticEdu]

When is the last time you switched up your classroom? #TopTeaching blogger @RhondaStewart20 tried flexible seating for the first time last year and tells you why it was SO. WORTH. IT! https://t.co/lcmvjzRCKS

@ccpsPD1 #TopTeaching I want to use these books!
