They tend to struggle most with vocabulary and writing, comprehension as well. Based on our personal observations, there seems to be a trend of poor work habits/attention and/or maturity issues among many of the LTELS. We currently support them by focusing on key skills, seating, small group, conferencing, writing support, vocabulary, checking for understanding, revising strategies and communicating goals with students.
