Strategy • Turn and talk to one person • Q1: How would you rate this lesson? Why? • 1 [poor] 3 [average] 5 [superior] • Intentionally open-ended • Q2: What specific research-based best practices for ELLs did you see in the lesson? • Make a list with your partner
Table Team Talk Share the list with your table team Count how many different strategies your table team was able to identify. Table Teams will report out the list by least to greatest. Each subsequent team will only share if they have a new item to add.

Video #2 Observation Summary Teach students what to say when they don’t know WHAT to say. Students have to speak in complete sentences. Use total response signals to have students monitor their own understanding. Teach students concepts, words, and phrases to use in writing and conversation.
What to say when you don’t know what to say… May I please have some more information? May I have some time to think? May I ask a friend for help? Where could I find that information? Do you see these questions posted? Do you see/hear these questions used?

Exactly how can we support ELLS? assign variables to the different changing quantities and accurately identify as independent and dependent collect data and create a graph, table, and/or mapping diagram that accurately represents the data (ELPS 5G-‐Writing) deconstruct a graph into sections and identify what is happening in each section (ELPS 3D-‐Speaking) determine the correlation between two variables, if any verbally describe the domain and range for a continuous or discrete function (ELPS 3B-‐Speaking) write an expression or equation that correctly relates the variables in the problem situation interpret data in graphs, tables, and problem situations to solve problems and make predictions
Missing In Action Ongoing assessment / development of oral proficiency and literacy to plan effective instruction and intervention Second language acquisition development Intervention is essential - every ELL is different What have we missed in our support of you?
