I chose a concept map because it is something students can fill out as I read books out loud to the classroom. They can work on this before, during, and after the read aloud in order to enhance their comprehension of what was read.

I chose this video because it shows how a teacher is getting her students to think about something to write. I thought this might be easier to help EB/EL students when I ask them to write in their journal (would help them brainstorm ideas and learn how to word their ideas).

I chose this PDF because it clarifies what academic language is. Additionally, it breaks the academic language down into categories which makes it easier on teachers to know which terms their students may not be familiar with.

I chose this picture because it shows how you could use a word wall to help explain new academic terms to students. It would also give the students something to refer to if they forgot what a term means.

I chose this document because it separates language objectives by subject. Additionally, it varies in complexity so that you can choose an objective that your student will actually understand.

sadieprothro — 2024-02-16 20:41:15 UTC

I chose this document because it gives examples of both content and language objectives. It also provides stems to use for language objectives which I can use in the future.

I chose the SOLOM because it will help me determine how proficient my students are at speaking English. I can also use this to track their progress to see how I can further help them develop their oral language skills.

sadieprothro — 2024-02-17 05:18:05 UTC

I chose this resource because it explicitly states what words are considered Tiers 1, 2, and 3. This will be very helpful when I am a teacher and need to focus on which Tier of words to teach my students.

sadieprothro — 2024-02-19 03:41:25 UTC

I chose this document because it has both the english words and the corresponding words for other languages. I think this could be really helpful when I teach EBs/ELs because I can clarify that they know what certain words mean.

I chose this video because it goes into explicit detail on how to teach math to ESL learners. I really liked how in depth she explained all of her ideas and I think I could use these ideas in the future.

sadieprothro — 2024-02-19 04:00:22 UTC

I chose this graphic organizer because it allows students to learn the meaning of new vocabulary words, draw a picture of the new word, and use it in a sentence. I think this could be helpful for EBs/ELs when they are learning new science terms.

sadieprothro — 2024-02-19 04:01:20 UTC

sadieprothro — 2024-02-19 04:02:17 UTC

I chose this document because it lists science cognates in English and Spanish. Since I want to teach in Texas where there are many Spanish speakers, I think this could be helpful for m future students.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-01 01:43:31 UTC

I chose the KWL chart because it would allow me to know what my students already know about certain topics. Then I would be able to determine if they understood the lesson with the "what I learned column."

sadieprothro — 2024-03-01 01:49:41 UTC

I chose this graphic organizer because it will help students organize the information they learn about historical events. This would be helpful for EBs/ELs to look back on and he facts written down with what they are associated with (for instance having a name under "who?").

sadieprothro — 2024-03-21 16:35:03 UTC

sadieprothro — 2024-03-21 16:35:56 UTC

I chose this website because it offers 7 helpful ways for teachers to prepare EBs/ELs for state tests. I think this will be very helpful for me to look back on as a teacher and to get some ideas to better help my students.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-21 16:38:03 UTC

I chose this resource because it goes into step-by-step details on how to create beneficial summative assessments. I think this will make me consider many things when I have to make tests in the future and will help my tests be more fair.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-21 16:54:10 UTC

I chose this document in order to be able to determine what level my future students are at. This will be very helpful when determining what scaffolds certain students need and how I can measure my students' progress.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-21 16:57:48 UTC

I chose this document because it goes into more detail on how to use the TELPAS. Additionally, it explains why the TELPAS is important and how it can be used to improve students' understanding of the English language.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-29 19:56:16 UTC

I chose this resource because it gives many examples (with pictures) of helpful formative assessments for English learners. I think this is a quick and easy reference I can use in the future for when I start making my own formative assessments.

sadieprothro — 2024-03-29 20:01:15 UTC

I chose to include this video because it provides an in-depth explanation on how to make and use student portfolios. This will be helpful in the future because it will allow me to remember everything I should ask students to include in their portfolios and how I can assess them through it.

sadieprothro — 2024-04-04 16:47:18 UTC

I chose to include this chart because I think it will be helpful to know the contrast between language differences and disabilities. When I am actually in a classroom, I think these differences will be very subtle so it will be nice to have a resource to look back on.

sadieprothro — 2024-04-04 16:49:55 UTC

sadieprothro — 2024-04-04 16:52:19 UTC

This document is very similar to the other one; it also outlines the differences between language differences and disabilities. Yet again, I think trying to distinguish between these two will be very hard and this document will help me pinpoint what my future students' problems are.

sadieprothro — 2024-04-09 03:35:24 UTC

I chose this document because it will help me better understand if an EB/EL student is showing characteristics of gifted and talented. Since this can be shown in many different ways, having a diagram like the TABs one will help me categorize my students' strengths.

sadieprothro — 2024-04-09 03:36:36 UTC

sadieprothro — 2024-04-09 03:38:07 UTC

I chose this resource because it outlines why EBs/ELs may not be identified as gifted and talented and what characteristics they might demonstrate. Additionally, it provides many resources to help with the identification process that I can use in the future.

sadieprothro — 2024-04-16 14:33:23 UTC

One resource I chose was Kahoot. I think this is a fun game to use in the classroom and would allow me to test what my students have learned!

sadieprothro — 2024-04-16 14:42:34 UTC

sadieprothro — 2024-04-16 14:43:26 UTC

I chose this resource because it lists some great websites and apps for EBs. I think this would be a great thing to look back on and implement these learning tools in my classroom.
