Session #3: Read both the scenarios on Marisol and Miguel. For each scenario, identify the students strengths; weaknesses/opportunities and what you would do to bolster their achievement both ACADEMICALLY and DEVELOPMENTALLY/Socially. Remember, learning a language is a socio-emotional, psychological process and NOT just a linguistic one!
Session #2: We began reading the article, "Changing Course for Long Term English Language Learners". Finish reading the article then respond: (Again):
--How does Marisol transition or turn into Miguel? Use evidence from the article, hint, hint....
--What techniques/strategies can students get so that they WILL NOT transition into Miguel (that is Long Term English Learners)?
--What is Academic Language and how is it different from "casual" Basic Interpersonal Communication?
2. Explore the handouts on my blog. Then write down the name of one handout or activity that you found that you liked, and how you would use it in your classroom or in the future!
Session #1. Same as session #2 above--simply begin reading from, "What is a long Term English Learner?" on page 30 to page 31--the end. Then complete all the activities for Session #2

English Ten B Reflection on Memoir
1. What did you learn about the process of revision by reading your Memoir out loud?
2. What score would you give your memoir based on the Autobiographical Rubric I gave you? Why? If you are between two levels, give yourself a .5 so for example, if you feel you are between a 3 and a 4, you would give yourself a 35 (3.5)
3. What things do you need to do to move your memoir up the rubric? What can you do at this time?
4. If there was no word limit or suggestion, which paragraph is the best?
Turn in this reflection.
Now, today, you will revise and resubmit your memoir, even if only your first paragraph or the paragraph that needs the most revision and work.
