I love it when a plan comes together! Using a new structure, 6th grade MLs successfully cooperated in pairs to annotate key ideas in a multi-paragraph text. A chorus of reading and rich conversation was music to my ears while I waited for them to “Send One” partner for support.
Students in @misscuts_chs class are working on happiness collages to kick off the next unit in Lift 2. It was so fun to see and read their perspectives of happiness!
Appropriate scaffolds and high expectations mean 7th grade newcomers, in Ms. Wolfe’s class at Gresham, CAN DO hard things! @GladiatorGlover @KCS_ELL @CWhite_KCS @adpark3737 #kcsregion4
Yesterday was a great DLD! A huge thank you to all the presenters and facilitators. Here are two amazing Region 4 ELL teachers leading fabulous sessions on they use @ImagineLearning and @HeggertyPA to ensure student growth and achievement! Thank you Shirley and Kristina!
Thank you, @mrs_ebchoi for your expertise! Student engagement is key! Your sessions are always spot on! On behalf of the entire ELL department, we appreciate you!
the curriculum won't teach itself! cooperative learning structures give multilingual learners opportunities to engage in academic output and increase academic intake. thankful to share with #KCS MS ELD colleagues today. @VHLPreK12

ELL unit preparation protocol and other teacher-led sessions offered opportunities for collaboration and curriculum internalization during KCS district learning day! – at Knoxville, TN
It might be the Wednesday before fall break, but student engagement and learning has not slowed down at @KnoxCentralHS. ELL classes of all proficiency levels were building language through content. @CWhite_KCS @CHSRutig @KCS_ELL
This is too good not to share with everyone! I received the best text today from one of the ELL teachers! I need to meet this student stat! @KCS_ELL @DrCarolSalva @campabc3 @stephcprince #kcsregion4 #QSSSA #studentengagement
ELs at @HallsMiddle are very engaged in their learning and are enjoying their new curriculum Bridges @VHLPreK12. One class was practicing vocabulary and reviewing tenses. The other class was using a graphic organizer to analyze characters in a text.
Analyzing and grouping students writing task to determine next steps in instruction. This is how we ensure we are making intentional decisions about planning & instruction. Great ELL PLC @InskipE @CWhite_KCS @adpark3737 @KCS_ELL #kcsregion4
I am super proud of this team and the entire staff! It is an absolute honor to work with @ABESCardinals 🥰
Shout out to our amazing ELL team for their interactive training on language-rich classrooms and strategies to engage our English learners.
Success for all students starts with collective efficacy and we’ve got the best team!
