Fundamentals: A community based on progress

Do you struggle to teach English? Do you feel like you are pushing a boulder up a hill at every turn?

Here are a few stats that might shock you:

Almost 75% of EL students in the state of Texas last year failed to progress one level or more on the annual language test.
About 76% of EL students in the state of Florida are either beginner or intermediate on the WIDA scales.
71% of all ELs nationwide graduate high school.

This is a problem!

But some schools are making a difference. They are doing things that promote growth. For example, they are implementing...

reading systems according to the science of reading with respect to language learning, which ensures teachers secure the fundamentals of teaching reading as they consider the fact that students are learning language as well
systematic approaches to the student body that promote progress
progress monitoring systems that track formative, rather than only summative data.

This community is meant to get your class on track and moving in a positive and commonsense rhythm.

Does any one of us know everything? Of course not! But together, we can help solve each other's problems!

We are tired of watching our multilingual learners become statistics. We want every student to succeed!

It is common for EL teachers to work in isolation with their students. Flow by AIR connects teachers over lesson plans, courses, and online meetups.
