#ELAatHHS

Modeled writing an effective thesis statement for my Ss. All, ELs especially, have written GORGEOUS theses for their first commentary of the year! Feels good to say we’re off to a good start! #IAmWFISD #ELAatHHS #BeTheOne

Ss working on an interactive google slide curation presentation. “I feel like we’re really in the trenches, working through this together.” S/o to @curlytechlady #IAmWFISD #betheone #ELAatHHS #edtech

Asking Ss to create an album complete with cover and songs for a book character as analysis. They’re using songs in FOUR DIFFERENT LANGUAGES! Overheard “this song captures the emotions of the scene MUCH better in Italian!” @MrsRasmussen10 #IamWFISD #ELAatHHS @albus_doug #EngChat

Tried a History of Native American Lit lesson. Didn’t work. It was POOP! So today, I’m going to have my students research and teach me instead! #ELAatHHS #LeadLearner #IAmWFISD #BeTheOne

I was able to successfully communicate a message to an ELL in French! I studied French over a decade ago at @HHSHuskies and now I’m here using my skills! V cool! #ELAatHHS #IAmWFISD #BeTheOne

A terrific teacher is “one that has empathy toward students and their situations” says “I see and hear you” and “NEVER GIVES UP!” I asked my 11th graders these questions because they’ve been in school so long, they’re basically experts! #IamWFISD #BeTheOne #ELAatHHS @HHSHuskies

The English department achieved a distinction for our EOC scores, y’all. From IR —> achieving distinction in. one. year. WHO WORKS MIRACLES?! We do! #ELAatHHS #BETHEONE #iamwfisd @HHSHuskies @MrsRasmussen10 @WFISDschools
