I’ve been sharing posts about the professional development sessions we’ve been doing with all our teachers on teaching ELLs – because of logistical issues, we need to do similar sessions on five different days.

Here are the previous posts in this “series”:

As I previously described , we end each session with teachers saying what they want to stop doing, what they want to continue doing, and what is something new they want to try.

The screenshot above captures part of what participants said at the end of the second group (the last two posts on the list contains reports from the first and the third sessions.  You can download the entire document from that second session here. Thanks to Melanie Bean for transcribing the list!

Though there are obvious similarities between the “takeaways” from the sessions so far, there are a few differences, and I think they’re all useful.
