My nanny's husband had a massive heartattack this week. These people have more worries than anyone. She came from Armenia five years ago, worked odd and end jobs as a midwife (she has medical training and her husband is an engineer) and now her kids are here. All three are ESL students. All three have tested out of ELD in one year. She is only 42 and her husband is also.
So, think about this. On top of the fact that kids have major issues when they come to the classroom, imagine if they are also learning english.
I don't have much else to write today. Teaching wise, it was a good week. Their blog is going well.

Hi - can you post where your classroom blog is? I'd love to see what you're doing.
Do you have a lot of ELL in your class?
