How We Express Ourselves: Understanding and appreciating different cultures promotes international mindedness.
Our unit about exploring cultures and international mindedness came to a close with students creating a poster to share some elements of their culture and we created a definition as a class for what we understand international mindedness or global mindedness to be.

WIDA WORKSHOP
This November my school was generous to fly a WIDA Consultant out to work with our ESL team and other Elementary Homeroom teachers on a 2 day workshop about Differentiation for English Language Learners.
After the workshop, myself (being the ESL coordinator,) along with the Principal met to discuss the big question: NOW WHAT? For our programming. I checked in with my team, and here is what we decided together:
We decided that we would change our leveling system to better reflect the WIDA levels (we have phase 1, phase 2 and phase 3 at the moment). Next year we will change to Level 1, 2, 3, 4. This simple change, will likely result in a big project for me, but I think it is a valuable change!
