Had a great week of camp and loved seeing each player improve every day. Thanks to all who attended and our varsity players who served all week as coaches to our young War Eagles!!

If we want students to internalize content, we must provide them with multiple scaffolded opportunities to speak. @Seidlitz_Ed @adrianmendozaed

@AnganaGhate “Teach Us Your Name” by Huda Essa is a great read aloud, especially for the beginning of the year.

@AnganaGhate Yes, it’s a great resource!

[Laura Reonas @ReonasLaura]

@AnganaGhate @laurieRogo @MrSeanDillard @amandamjeffery @SarahtheSLP That’s awesome! I would love to try that out!

@DelaneyELDiana @SherryTeacher @MichelleMSlaton Wow! I knew about Immersive Reader within Word but had no idea you could use this tool in Teams! That’s awesome!!

[Laura Reonas @ReonasLaura]

@MichelleMSlaton @leeanne_rice Do you happen to have a link to the recorded session? Having trouble finding it on their website

@AnganaGhate @SPESKeith @Amandawickman3 @MrSeanDillard @SPESBen @KVossJohnson @pcox_teach @PennyLatimer @KristinaCherres Good to know! Thanks for sharing!

[Laura Reonas @ReonasLaura]

@AnganaGhate Cool! That’s a great option. For teachers already using @Seesaw , messages default to the language that your phone is set to. So teachers can send a message in English and families can see it in their preferred language, and vice versa.

Powerful. One look, and teachers will know if a student's not emotionally well that day.

Elements of teaching vocabulary:
1. Student-friendly definition
2. Playing with words using a scenario + image connected to the scenario
3. Provide a sentence frame WITH the target word to scaffold using the target word

@ValentinaESL @Seidlitz_Ed A3. The hardest thing for teachers is creating assessments that equitably assessing content learning rather than reading comprehension skills.

A4: I am thankful for all of the teachers I get to work with this year. Thankful for @amcsummey for all she does for her ELs, @AnganaGhate for always sharing resources and professional articles, and especially @NewlinTracie for showing me the ropes this year! #forsythpln

[Laura Reonas @ReonasLaura]

A3: I am thankful for @Seesaw! It is an easy way to communicate with families about what’s happening in the classroom AND automatically translates to your device’s set language #forsythpln

[Laura Reonas @ReonasLaura]

A2: Everyone in this field has a tough job. Expressing gratitude helps people feel that their effort has been noticed and appreciated #forsythpln
