Fantastic Online Resources for Educators

     Hello everyone! I hope that everyone is having a good week so far. Mine has been going fine so far and continues to look very similar to the previous ones. My school district is still completely in a virtual setting. I have gotten quite used to this type of setting, but I would rather be in person with my students. Virtual learning has been difficult for my special education students, but they have working very hard. During virtual learning, certain online resources such as Epic! Books, Quizziz, and UJU brain breaks have been super beneficial for my virtual classes. I am always trying to learn about new online resources to incorporate into my classroom and that is why these articles I came across were very informative.        The first article I read this week talked about some great online resources for educators to use that can also be very beneficial for English Language Learners. The first resource mentioned was Padlet.  According to the article, Padlet is an awesome source

So far, only four out of my twelve special education students are coming back in person.

  Happy Monday everyone! This week my district has professional development days both Monday and Tuesday for all staff. We had many sessions meant to prepare us for starting a hybrid teaching model soon. It was a nice way to start the week! This week I came across a very interesting article that came up in my google alerts. One article I read discussed common mistakes when working with ELLs and what teachers can do instead to fix them.   One common mistake mentioned in the article is that teachers often times have low expectations when it comes to English Language Learners. The article mentioned that many content teachers do not get creative when it comes to putting modifications and strategies in place to help ELLs. Some modifications and accommodations that teachers should put in place for ELLs are: ·          playing subtitles during videos ·            asking students to create a video instead of presenting in front of the class ·            finding out content using resour
