Since I'm assessing their understanding, not the language itself, it gives the students the ability to express themselves comfortably and I can still determine whether they understand the material. After that point sprinkle in the essential academic language and it's all good!]]> 2019-10-23 18:05:14 UTC https://padlet.com/smgunter/7xx0a6kg4uio/wish/401637358
