We contacted all of our EL students and surveyed the the parents. The ESL department has a list of students who we need to contact weekly due to language barrier. Our newcomers if they do have internet access they're able to do Imagine Learning and content teachers are able to check it. ESL teachers sent resources to the content teachers for those students that do not have internet access.

Some of our content teachers are doing a fabulous job of making videos explaining concepts. I think they can re-use those next year for flipped learning and individualized instruction.

I use Google Voice to call students once a week to check in, see if the family needs anything, relay teacher concerns, answer questions.  If I have to leave a voicemail, I will use Google Voice to text the cell phones.  I love this because they can translate it and it keeps a record of dates, times, etc.  I have a communication log I keep to go with this where I jot notes and reminders. I'm also doing a weekly Google Meet with each group to go support them with their core work.
