@breeze610 To clarify: Eng., they can talk around a word or concept. They know what a sentence is. In Span., they can feel stuck.

#nfedchat Q4 I love having small sessions during ind. work time with high students. Sneak previews of tenses/vocab help performance soar.

@C_Baldelli @NFMiddleSaSmith I've gotten a few good ideas from them. They've also caused good discussions among the dept., too. #nfedchat

@breeze610 Where can I look for info on lexile levels? Would be helpful with reading tasks. #nfedchat

[Señorita Smith @NFMiddleSaSmith]

@breeze610 True. I've also used stations, groupings, music, videos, motions, menus, choice boards...looking for other ideas, too. #nfedchat

[Señorita Smith @NFMiddleSaSmith]

#nfedchat I'm here for a bit. Does anyone knows of good ways to differentiate for WL. Cut down on vocab, provide listening...anything else?
