Round 25

Welcome to #EllChat_BkClub 25.0 
featuring 

ELL Shadowing as a Catalyst for Change
AND
Transforming Literacy Education for Long-Term English Learners


The vote for this round was VERY close so we decided to run two books at once. You can choose to read either one or if you are up for it, you can read BOTH. A reading schedule and resources will provided for both books and we will also work to make connections between the two texts.

If you are choosing to read one, we recommend you find a book buddy that is reading the other one to connect with throughout the chat!

The reading schedule is as follows:


I will post weekly questions on Twitter and also archive them here, so you can access all of the questions in one place. 

⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️




If you choose to respond to the weekly questions, please identify which one you’re responding to in your tweet (2A1, 2A2) Please note: The number before the Q indicates which week of the chat we are in, so 2A1 would indicate the answer to question 1 from week 2. Remember that you are not limited to these questions. Post a pic of your highlighted text, your favorite quotes, meaningful ideas, book snaps, your own questions, and connections to other texts!! 

#EllChat_BkClub is a slow chat, so you can post at any time throughout the week and throughout the chat. You can also post about questions or topics from previous weeks. It's all good as long as you are learning! 

For this chat, we will be using the following hashtags:

#EllChat_BkClub 25.0
#ELLShadowing
