However, my pacing was off and we did not have time to model note taking. We spent about ten minutes reviewing past and present simple tense construction, as our learners have never had formal grammar instruction, and these syntactic forms are necessary for producing a wiki entry.

Either they are debating opinions or they are discussing as a class to rectify misinterpretation of the text.

We scaffolded activity page 12.2 by adding page numbers to it.

Spelling went better than expected for most.

Scaffolded workbook for many by adding in page numbers. Made connections to current events like East Coast earthquake and Iceland volcano- started bulletin boards of current geologic happenings.

Everything takes them longer than the allotted time (writing, workbook pages, reading). It's hard to know what to do. 1. Keep plugging along and leave them with unfinished work? 2. Take more than 1 day for each lesson and give the advanced students enrichment activities? https://padlet.com/amplifyliteracypilotsupport/14qdaeskjp405v8o/wish/2947216695 2024-04-08 19:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/amplifyliteracypilotsupport/14qdaeskjp405v8o/wish/2947216695 A colleague suggested Quiz-Quiz-Trade as a way for them to practice the spelling words. She also created a Blooket game. Fun ways to practice! https://padlet.com/amplifyliteracypilotsupport/14qdaeskjp405v8o/wish/2947217572 2024-04-08 19:06:50 UTC https://padlet.com/amplifyliteracypilotsupport/14qdaeskjp405v8o/wish/2947217572 Differentiation https://padlet.com/amplifyliteracypilotsupport/14qdaeskjp405v8o/wish/2948754806 Still an issue for all of us, especially the lower readers.
