Happily in the Middle | What's In My Pump Bag?

Переглядів 6536 років тому

A look into my pump bag what I take to work every day so I can express milk for my son while I am away. Two things: 1. I realize that there is an issue with the camera when I started talking about keeping a onsie in my bag (a piece of clothing that smells like your baby).

Teaching English Learners | Observation Charts

Переглядів 6586 років тому

Supporting English learners with scaffolds is key to their success in the classroom. Using observation charts is a great way to access prior knowledge and to frontload knowledge before beginning a new unit or topic of student. I have used these in so many of my lessons, and I have had students engage with observation charts in a variety of ways. I think you'll find this an easy peasy way to sup...
