It would be wonderful to have a session where we could get together by grade level and plan lessons incorporating WIDA Standards and Common Core.

p. 7: Perhaps instead of:  "Do Ss have to remove ESL services?" the question could be: "If parents have removed ESL services, do they have to do so each subsequent year?"

Is the school system developing a math pacing guide that goes by quarter and by week for K-5?
Is there one for ELA Common Core by skill/concept, not necessarily Imagine It?
These would be most helpful when planning and knowing the curriculum in advance.

Ann and David muchas gracias por todo lo que ustedes hacen por nosotros.😘🌏

P. 7 consider using inclusive language. Instead of saying, "An EL student may receive EL testing accommodations regardless of whether he has removed ESL services," use plurals: "...EL students may receive...regardless of whether or not they have removed ESL services."

Sometimes the school administration demands the same information that we send to the ESL DEPT. Too many duplicated tasks.

Remember it's difficult to balance accountability tasks, collaboration and advocacy .  Sometimes we are given little homeworks to be completed after workshops that are not meaningful and time consuming.

When a new student arrives, they should be presented with the home language survey first to determine whether he/she should be tested and will qualify for services.  That way, they don't receive a whole packet they don't need. (survey process, p. 12)

Because the people in our own buildings may be tired of us harping on the importance of scaffolding and providing language support to ELs (and sometimes tune us out), what if we moved around and did some staff development at each other's schools? We would be creating our own versions of "experts from 100 miles away." We could refer to ourselves as EFAB -- Experts From Another Building!

they had more opportunities to collaborate with each other and share lessons, especially with common grade levels. It is such a wonderful feeling to leave a PLT or training with actual material to use in class with students.

I believe ESL teachers would greatly benefit if they follow a district wide adopted program, get trained, exchange ideas, collaborate in lesson planning, integrate SIOP into it, etc.That would make life easier, we'd all be on the same page, and ESL students would not face new beginnings every time they change school.
