The book is excellent from the perspective of ELL learning in a math classroom. I enjoyed the specific examples the book provided and the course assignments allowed me to dive into applying those concepts in my classroom.

This class/book showed a lot of examples of lessons being modified to address the needs on ELL. It provided tons of strategies that will allow me to better meet the needs of all my students this coming up year!

Megan and the text provided instructional ideas and materials that will be easily accessible and ready for implementation when my students begin this fall. It was also quite thought provoking! I truly enjoyed the course!
