Multicultural Night at CHES @CovingtonHarper

[Ashley Marland, NBCT @MsMarlandESOL]

I love directed drawing for all ages! It’s a great way to strengthen listening skills, following directions, & vocab. It’s a great confidence booster & anyone can follow along regardless of what language is spoken. Plus they’re fun! #ches #worldclassels #englishlearners

@MLivingsELA @DrCarolSalva @CovingtonHarper Today was the most engaged this group has been all year! Seeing the level 1 newcomers being able to actively participate and engage in the lesson with the rest of the group makes taking the time to do this so worth it!

Annotating objectives with 3rd grade for the first time today. The discussions we had were wonderful! They decided an objective is like a mission-they had to figure our their job for the day. Thanks @DrCarolSalva for this awesome strategy! #worldclassells #pwcs @CovingtonHarper
