#ELLSAPD happens in 20 minute cycles. A prompt will be posted and you have 15 minutes to think, discuss, and reflect. Spend the last 5 minutes of the cycle posting on here and browsing what others have to say. You can always read and respond afterwards too so don't rush!

Choosing to invalidate the votes of people who put you in power is ... a bold choice. And it should be a career-ending one.

A few of the many amazing things already happening with collaboration in the ES! #risrocks #Collaboration
Been thinking about how all my literacy data fits together (WIDA, NWEA MAP, F&P). What I created is not a comprehensive list - but a starting place! Would love to hear your thoughts on how you use lit data for T&Ling. #ESL #ell #ela #tesol
