All the material is copyright free so you can cut and paste the material into your own documents. The website is fairly easy to navigate as well and I recommend having a look at the various topics covered. While this has been designed for refugees in Europe I felt there was some really good advice relevant to all tutors and plan to use it with our ESOL team. ]]> 2018-12-16 19:36:00 UTC https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315004761 Ascentis pre-entry accreditation for ESOL https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315109348 pilot at Shipley]]> 2018-12-17 11:22:56 UTC https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315109348 Google classroom gaillydon https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315170867 2018-12-17 14:29:03 UTC https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315170867 Discussions from our 2nd network meeting gaillydon https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/315171535 - Google classroom and how to make the best use, how to use it to motivate learners,  quizzes, distance learning marks (D on register, goes towards GLH, links to CIF?).  Can Google classroom open up digital for lower level ESOL learners?  Might be useful for non attenders.
- Socrative, Kahoot and other tools
- how to manage expectations of observations
- Helen's 'triangle' project via the advanced practitioner programme.
- the different hourly teaching requirements in different organisations
- attendance - Shipley aiming for E&Maths to be within 2% of wider programmes.  They timetable E&M first.
- interest in further discussions into how to manage mixed ability classrooms

Sue McGill]]> 2019-01-23 15:47:50 UTC https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/323510698 Discussions from our 3rd network meeting gaillydon https://padlet.com/pdnorth1720/YHEnglishESOL/wish/330329689 Discussed different AOs and their requirements, advantages and disadvantages of each.  Noone wanted to teach to the test but all recognised that it is important for learners to be successful.
Some offered 'keeping warm sessions' for those learners who had completed a level but the next level not yet started.
Timing of sessions can be difficult as learners have complex and often changing lives.  Diverse classes:
- age
- background (including regional variations e.g. York highly skilled foreign nationals)
- educational levels
- religion
- native language etc
Resources which can be used from home were discussed e.g. Edmodo for setting independent work and has an inbuilt tracker.
Expertise of staff (NATECLA but unpaid prep in some areas, need dyslexia support and sometime dealing with learners who have had trauma).
Basic Literacy needs training required - Spiegel & Sunderland, 2000 'Teaching Basic Literacy to ESOL learners' - was suggested as giving useful guidance including how to use 'language experience'  in a group.  Another was Learner English: A Teacher's Guide to Interference and other Problems (Cambridge Handbooks for Language Teachers)14 May 2001
by Michael Swan

The group shared how they have developed their 'skeletal' framework.
Discussed how we might get tutors together at one big session to share good practice.  Possibly 6th June.
Encouraging the members to join Edmodo group.
