Project-Based Learning for ELLs

One of my big goals for this summer was to create a skeleton or framework for at least one PBL idea for each grade level for my schools this year.  I will be in three elementary schools and I want to be a part of the PBL conversation because of how beneficial and engaging it can be for (everyone and) ELLs.

This short video from the Buck Institute for Education (BIE) gives you a taste of the kinds of differentiation techniques ESOL teachers can employ or suggest to general classroom teachers to encourage confidence and meaningful participation of ELLs in a group PBL setting.  Watch it below!
