It is important to ensure our EL students can get access to a quality program and that's why having a PD to help be a more effective ELD educator is important.

2024-10-08 22:03:16 UTC

I can use two new methods for Student Talk and I am excited to implement!

2024-10-08 22:04:16 UTC

Great ideas, but still curious about how to successfully implement to classrooms with levels 1-3+ -Maybe some ideas on how to efficiently scaffold for this.

2024-10-08 22:04:25 UTC

It is important to take into account the whole student and their experiences.

2024-10-08 22:04:32 UTC

An insight I have is I need to gamify students’ learning activities because that is fun and helps them learning.

2024-10-08 22:04:35 UTC

We need to remember to monitor our talking time so we can give our EL's ample time to talk

2024-10-08 22:04:45 UTC

Having empathy for students is important

2024-10-08 22:04:51 UTC

I’m thinking about how I will incorporate the equitable talk activities into my Social Science classes. I’m looking forward to using the “clock appointments” activity.

2024-10-08 22:05:05 UTC

I plan to follow up on using more of the structured language practice routines with my whole class, sentence stems to get my newcomer talking more, and structuring my ELD class by units using the different resources available to me.

2024-10-08 22:05:08 UTC

Something I would like to see more of would be examples of students using the talking chips, think/pair/share/, clock appointments, etc just so we can see how it actually looks like in a classroom.

2024-10-08 22:05:16 UTC

I am excited to incorporate the talking chips with my students!

2024-10-08 22:05:35 UTC

I don't have a question. My takeaway is the different talk routines.

2024-10-08 22:05:55 UTC

An insight I have is to make sure to explain to students how English works. When recasting, offer an explanation.

2024-10-08 22:06:26 UTC

An insight I gained is to make sure I allow accountable talk time for my ML/EL students.

2024-10-08 22:06:44 UTC

Great ideas. Thanks for the background knowledge and time to plan. I would like more examples of each level for next time.

2024-10-08 22:07:02 UTC

I am so happy to have access to the EL Achieve resources and lessons online, and to learn different talking strategies to use in class to promote talk equity.

2024-10-08 22:07:15 UTC

Very useful information, I appreciate the time to ask questions! I am looking forward to the Systematic ELD Training!

I've found meaningful resources and skills to support my EL and my at-risk Students.

2024-10-08 22:07:26 UTC

I enjoyed the PD! I'd still like to see how to scaffold learning for students at all different levels. I'd love to see some sample work, videos, and hands-on lessons.

2024-10-08 22:23:59 UTC

A question I still have is what indicators are we looking for to "move" the scaffolds provided from one level to the next? What would that sequence look like throughout the year? And what 'red flags' can we look for to know we moved students up?

2024-11-13 22:35:10 UTC

My takeaway was the different strategies for reading comprehension. Seeing the A/B reading strategy was useful to see in action

2024-11-13 22:35:51 UTC

I really liked the idea of not just having the students know what they are reading, but to know what information to screen as not as important. As a 6th grade teacher the texts become a lot longer, and a lot of the time the students get caught up over irrelevant information and cannot find themes or main ideas of the text so practicing how to sift through the information is a tool I want to start having my students practice.

2024-11-13 22:36:09 UTC

Something I will be implementing in my lessons is the Double Bubble, and the A/B Partners (making sure that partners are around the same reading level).

2024-11-13 22:36:27 UTC

Really loved the double bubble graphic organizer, also the A/B reading was a great strategy to get students practicing reading.

2024-11-13 22:36:28 UTC

Learning about "code your reading" was helpful

2024-11-13 22:36:36 UTC

Day 2. I really enjoyed the focus on reading today. It gave me ideas on how to improve both my reading struction with my SEI class and my ELD class.

I am looking forward to using the graphic organizer in my class!

2024-11-13 22:36:44 UTC

I appreciate the phonics skills transference. Although I don’t teach strictly phonetics; I can use it to inform how students comprehend and write.

yl899 — 2024-11-13 22:36:55 UTC

I loved how to use graphic organizers in helping students enhance their reading comprehension. I would love to expand it for students to write a summary by combining several organizers.

2024-11-13 22:36:57 UTC

Great strategies shared by the PD & my table mates!

2024-11-13 22:37:19 UTC

Learned varied ways of using graphic organizer esp during photosynthesis

2024-11-13 22:37:42 UTC

Day 2: I liked that we were able to experience some of the strategies ourselves. I'd like to try more during my ELD class. I enjoyed the PD! Thank you so much!

2024-11-13 22:37:45 UTC

Thank you for a great Day 2! I loved all the explicit strategies taught that we can implement with our classes- A/B partner reading/talking especially!

ghuneke1 — 2024-11-13 22:37:50 UTC

I really appreciate all I've learned today: instant takeaways that I will use right away: especially A/B partnerships for reading and discussion, double bubble graphic organizers, etc.

2024-11-13 22:47:37 UTC

The ideas for annotating and note-taking were insightful. I will incorporate these ideas more with my students
