WELCOME BACK EVERYONE!!
I hope that you are braving the heat and enjoying connecting with your students! This update will be a quick one. Don't forget to check out this weeks BLOG (Is "Good Teaching" Enough?).
WEEK IN SCHOOLS-AVID Excel 8th grade-Horning Middle School
With great expectation comes great support-then they achieve! AVID Excel explicitly attends to the language demands our students need to master as they succeed into high school and beyond. This is just one way it is done. Look at the volume and complexity of this writing by an English learning student-do you expect the same? do you get it? More to come on this Excel Routine!
