We integrate a good bit of Social Studies with RELA already. We are not in blocks so it is easier for us to have that extended time.]]> 2016-03-01 19:55:40 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/98299768 https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/98300914 How would this affect ESOL?

The only concern is that advanced and accelerated are learning different ELA topics than on. Any suggestions on how to handle this?]]> 2016-03-13 20:36:03 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/100662294 mcgowanr https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/100918812 I think the integration is easier than we think.  We naturally incorporate reading and writing into many subject areas.  It seems we just need to be more intentional with the activities...which means we need the time to do this.]]> 2016-03-14 22:59:32 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/100918812 mcgowanr https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/100919203 We need to remember that integration does not equal PBL.  These are two separate strategies.]]> 2016-03-14 23:03:32 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/100919203 https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/101628854 -Departmentalization out

Problem:  Putting into plans will take a LOT of time.  Can't do weekly during planning.  Summer project?]]> 2016-03-22 19:30:12 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/102297767 mcgowanr https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/102298109 Testing needs to be integrated as well...reading and science tests combined.

Problem: It will take lots of time to redo plans and it will effect our pacing chart which we feel age and skill appropriate.  ]]> 2016-05-10 20:10:48 UTC https://padlet.com/colson4/9u1gxjnwwdy1/wish/110196983
