Christopher Columbus was our focus this week in ELL class
We had a delightful week reading, discussing, and completing activities about the explorer, Christopher Columbus this week in ELL class. All grade levels participated in many activities, some of which included books, think-pair-share activities, vocabulary words, unscrambling sentences, and journal work. Some of the older students worked on their TTQA (Turn the Question Around) skills, while others focused on identifying prepositions...place words such as on, under, over, behind, in, etc. A very productive week overall in ELL. All of the students are very motivated and eager to learn.
