With CoVID19 threatening school closures- many leaders are seriously exploring e-learning for all. Anyone have good Elearning practices or policies for ELs? #equitableElearning@ColorinColorado@AndreaHonigsfel @WIDAConsortium
As we EL instructors know, there are variables to consider before looking at one piece of data to determine which schools succeeded in meeting goals (state or district) than one score. More research to help advocate for our students and our work #HSDell
3 months in and HSD's ESOL class is going strong! Returning and new students are now regulars and we are loving it! Humbled that some take the bus or arrange rides to attend two evenings a week--dedicated to learning English! WOW!
Jamie @ELLJBozif and I LOVED teaching adult ESOL classes and learning from our fabulous students last year. We are excited that classes are offered again and will beginning Sept. 25th!@HSDell
ELL co-teaching in a push-in model has taken center stage. Seriously wondering...Is there any ELL current research or support for pull-out instructional model?

These are my favorite sentence starters to use for accountable talk. I don’t know who made them. They are so nice and visual for all kids (esp #ELs). #ellchat#katyool#ESL#Bilingual#ELL#ENL#EFL
SO inspired by our HSD adult English Learners who are reading English childrens' books at home to their children in order to improve their own literacy skills. The epitome of perseverance!@HSDell
