This #5grade #ELL #ML math class has worked all year on fact fluency. We ended the year with homemade #factfluency board games. One even #Takis themed! #holtonhawkpride #Holtonhawks #math Fun, engaged learning! @Holton492

It may be the last few weeks of school, but our #holtonhawk #ml #ell students are busy working on their biography essays! These #5thgrade students have grown so much in all language abilities and I can’t wait to see their final writings.💜💜#proudteacher #esl

Gnomie decided to channel his inner artist today! “We all smile in the same language.” #gnomeontheroam #eslteacher #ellteacher #holtonhawks #holidaycheer

Teaching from a cart has its perks! #teacheronacart #mobileclassroom Amped up the coolness of my classroom on a cart with some xmas lights!! #eslteacher #ell

Wow! These #5grade Ss used their #treemaps to write a 4- paragraph, informational essay! @AVID4College strategies work for all! High expectations and accommodated language structures yield amazing results! We love using our @ThinkingMaps to guide our writing. @Holton492 @isd492

At the library today, I had a great convo with a #5grade #ELL #holtonhawk! She saw me reading about Thailand and came over. She told me all about the delicious meals she used to have and that she misses “her home food.” 💖 I wish I could #doordash for some Mohinga for her!!

Yes,#proudteacher post! My #5thgrade #ELL Ss are #flexiblelearners! Pair high expectations for multi-language speakers + 💪relationships & appropriate academic rigor, magic happens;mixing in an open learning classroom doesn’t slow down our #holtonhawks. #austinisacademics @isd492

So #covid has 💯 flipped all aspects of education from how we teach, interact & collaborate w/ students..I am SO thankful for @Seesaw! My #ELL #Holtonhawks can speak up safely, listen to others, and get immediate feedback from myself & peers! (Safely)❤️#equityineducation

Sending notes of appreciation to all my #5grade and #6grade #ML #ESL #holtonhawk Ss! I wouldn’t be the teacher I am without them! #distancelearning #snailmail #TeacherAppreciationDay

Such fun! These wonderful #ELL #6grade #holtonhawks became the teachers today! They used a variety of @ThinkingMaps to complete their topic research and then shared their findings with their groups.

This #5thgrade #ESL #ELL #ML @Holton492 #holtonhawk rocked our writing process... @AVID4College strategies of marking the text, using a @ThinkingMaps double bubble, and a 1-pager border around the essay! 🙌🏼💙

These #ELL #ESL #6grade students sure put the “I” in KIND! The proof? Come check out their amazing 5 paragraph essays!! @Holton492

The BEST way to start our morning is with @AVID4College inspired classroom team building games! This was our first attempt at head-shoulders-knees-cup! I’d say my #esl #ell #6graders loved it!! @Holton492
