Before we close our classroom doors for the year, it’s time to reflect on our journey of equipping ELLs for success.
We are here with an audit guide for your ESL program!
In episode 77 of the Equipping ELLs podcast, Beth will guide you through reflection using the “Three, Two, One Method”.
Begin by jotting down three positive things that happened this year. These will remind you of the progress you’ve made and what things you want to continue into next year!
Now, move on to listing two areas of frustration. Be honest with yourself about the challenges you’ve faced.
Lastly, choose one action step to prioritize during the summer break. Instead of overwhelming yourself with an extensive to-do list, concentrate on a single goal.
Tune in to episode 77 of the Equipping ELLs podcast as we celebrate the milestones achieved, learn from the challenges faced, and equip ourselves with renewed energy and focus for the upcoming year.
