This is a place to share teaching ideas, particularly in English/language arts and in supporting struggling learners. In my 30-year career as an educator, I worked with the teachers of struggling students. Sometimes my colleagues had excellent ideas to inspire and support these kids, and sometimes they had no idea how to help them. I was fortunate to have colleagues who cared about their students and were open to collaborating with me and others for support when needed. I want to share ideas that worked for us and would love to hear from teachers at other schools. Since I primarily taught English, I’ll also share ideas particular to that subject matter.
