Happy Friday, sweet ladies. What a great week spreading and celebrating kindness throughout our lives. I am reminded, daily, what a blessing it is to be at Lee Elementary with each of YOU! Hearing you champion each other and your learners, as well as support and love one another communicates what a special group we have. THANK YOU for being YOU! Please leave when learners are safely dismissed, tomorrow, and enjoy your weekend. You are loved!

ESL TIP THIS WEEK
REPEAT OR REPHRASE INSTRUCTIONS: be careful not to assume that everyone understands your directions. Many students (including ELs) will be reluctant to say in front of their peers that they don't understand. Avoid asking, "Does everyone understand?" It's not typical for anyone to respond, "No, I don't understand." Instead try gauging understanding by asking questions or having student retell the directions to a partner. Then listen in so you can clear up misconceptions by rephrasing the directions. Sometimes repeating is not enough. If they don't understand, then repeating will not work, but perhaps rephrasing will. Try it a different way.
