I highly recommend 50 Strategies. The book, the course and the sessions have given me strategies for my ELL students and my LEP students. I use these strategies on a regular basis.

I love this class and how it was designed to provide lots of choice and interaction. There were many opportunities to see other’s ideas and get and give feedback. I will now be using this text and the resources alongside me as I plan. Love it, thank you!
