Loved seeing my @smsteammichigan kiddos working so hard during our order of operations scavenger hunt! Tricky grouping symbols are no match for the wolverines! @StonewallMiddle #WeAreStonewall
Team Michigan had a blast taking their syllabus quiz on the iPads today! We were able to talk abut how to use QR codes and practice typing! #WeAreStonewall@smsteammichigan
A3) I feel prepared to better know and understand my learners in a way that can create a beneficial learning environment for them #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A2) I think I need to work more on designing lessons for language development, especially engaging learners in use and practice of authentic language— my goal for this year is to establish better discourse in my classroom #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A1) I use a lot of exit tickets and I like to take on more of an observational role when I have students discussing different strategies (using sentence stems if needed) so I can assess vocabulary usage in an informal way to guide further instruction #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A4) I graphic organizers and structured notes often. I’ve also been trying to implement more successful structured conversations and group work with designated roles. #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A3) I would like to do better with communicating and explaining objectives to students. I use think aloud a a lot to help students see how to use the language we are learning but I want to better explicitly teach what the objectives mean. #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A2) to get a better understanding of their math knowledge I usually use a pretext of some sort to help assess their background knowledge and critical thinking skills. To learn more about all of my students I ask them to complete student interest surveys #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A1) I really like the paraphrase passport, I think it’s not only a great way to check for understanding but it also encourages students to actively listen to their peers #WorldClassELsBookStudy
@MLivingsELSpec Rachel Borneman, 7th grade math at stonewall middle! My favorite part of summer is being able to recharge and relax before another school year!
A4: the twitter chats! I think they provide a great way to connect and collaborate with teachers at all different schools and content areas! #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A3: I find that knowing your learners is most important. Not only does it make differentiation more specific to the child but also it shows students that you care about their learning, no matter their academic level. #WorldClassELsBookStudy
A1: All teachers assuming responsibility for English learners education resonates the most with me, I think it’s definitely important for that team effort when teaching students that are learning English #WorldClassELsBookStudy
