What scaffolds do you use?
Remembering to frontload vocabulary, not taking words for granted.
Engaging student in interactive experiences such as taking kids to walk the edge of a field to walk when talking about perimeter
Math: Remembering to use hands on materials and manipulatives
Visual Aids: Teaching kids how to use their visual scaffolds so that students know how to use them.
Language Modeling: ex: Teaching verb tense through modeling speaking. Gives students the opportunity to develop their oral language
Student grouping: Thinking about how students can best work together.]]> 2022-03-17 20:18:36 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100751527 Chapter 4 https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100751935 How can you make collaboration a reality?  
Student collaboration- setting and modeling conversation norms such as use appropriate language and make eye contact. Also students may need sentence starters to begin the conversation. Students may not know how to respond or even begin the conversation.

*Sharing between homeroom teacher and EL teacher including scores and WIDA descriptors.     ]]> 2022-03-17 20:18:59 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100751935 Chapter 2 https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100752197 Knowing what students Can Do as a starting point. Starting with the Can do descriptors at the beginning of the year, this gives students an opportunity to show growth. 

Creating groups and know who needs more scaffolding during instruction. 

Once students know where they are they can see where they want to be. Setting a monthly checkpoint to see where students currently are. Some goals may be met faster than others. 

Also using the ILP’s as a big picture to guide them in accomplishing the smaller goals. 

Students backgrounds play a major role in how they learn. Including and value different aspects of cultures into lessons as a way to be inclusive. This is a great way to build community and sharpen sensitive if other cultures.]]> 2022-03-17 20:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100752197 Chapter 2: Culture e20080583 https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100759296 Culture consists of shared traditions within a family or school setting.

(Serrano, Peachtree Middle) e20170417 https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100765049 Culturally responsive teaching is assets-based - because I believe that school literacy is not the only legitimate kind/source of literacy; the knowledge that students bring from home; the conceptual knowledge that they already possess (if encoded in a different language) are building blocks for continued literacy development. If only, I may sometimes backslide to deficit thinking when confronted with some of the curricular options and standardized testing that weighs so heavily on our teaching. ]]> 2022-03-17 20:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100765049 Culture doesn't just mean a language.

I think it is so important to allow the students to bring their strengths to the table, while also pushing them into that "uncomfortable" place. In order for guideline #4 for be successful, you have to develop a culture in your classroom of "it is okay to be uncomfortable" and foster a mindset that allows them to push through the uncomfortable place into a place of growth. ]]> 2022-03-17 20:32:49 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100766568 What is Culture?

On the other hand, relatively small classes mean that I can monitor students better and be made aware of any difficulties/arising needs in a relatively timely manner. 95% of my ELs are bilingual with Spanish as their home background. I am bilingual in Spanish, so I can typically provide help on the go as the need arises (to those  students).

I am interested in implementing concept sort activities (https://www.readingrockets.org/strategies/concept_sort)  more frequently to help students extend their academic vocabulary in terms of size and depth of their repertoire.

This is the collaboration piece that is and of itself a scaffold.

Scaffolds are meant to be used temporarily as the need changes with language growth. That may look like sentence stems, or a word bank, or multiple choice vs. constructed response. I am unsure if the question meant collaboration with teachers or with the students... but maybe best practice would be to have both. I've collaborated with teachers to share resources and make plans, but it would be great to collaborate where one person targets the scaffolds for students in similar language acquisition groups while the other person works with a different language level - then connect and share.]]> 2022-03-17 20:55:31 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100788535 Scaffolding https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100793174 I have students that I pull out major terms and concepts for them to define and tell me what they mean.

It affects what and how we teach, across all disciplines. For a simple example related to my content area (sheltered mathematics ESL), the placement of the currency symbol ("$") is positioned before the number in the US, but that is not the case in many other countries. Guideline 2 - placing students at the center of learning - resonated with me the most, because establishing a safe, welcoming, collaborative community of learners is my ultimate goal for each class. No class of students is ever the same and I adjust my teaching approach accordingly as I get to know my students' individual personalities and needs.]]> 2022-03-17 21:00:40 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100793268 Selecting scaffolds and role of collaboration https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100796209 I like to look at individual students and how each of them may need scaffolding. It helps to understand who they are and what abilities they have to choose one that will not only benefit them but also get them where they need to go. I may notice some of my students needing some assistance getting the right information to put in their notes so I may provide guided notes to help them understand how to identify the key points.

Collaboration is extremely important when it comes to sharing ideas and keeping pace among classes. So many times I've learned more from my colleagues than I ever could have imagined searching for on my own. Many of them have experienced situations that I find myself in and can provide that perspective to help me understand how to best provide my students with the right scaffolding on a given assignment or activity. Additionally it helps to provide plans for scaffolding that may be implemented in future assignments as well.]]> 2022-03-17 21:03:50 UTC https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100796209 Role of collaboration e20170417 https://padlet.com/angela_bokelman/rk3yfe9sdwqfk83t/wish/2100799854 Collaboration helps…
