7th Grade TX history; round 2

This round went smoother. First of all--a great group of kids! Second, timing was much better. This group had a higher number of ELL students. Levels 2 and 3 seemed to get the most out of the lesson, and seemed to be catching on the fastest. Level 1 students still struggled to grasp the concept...well, I'm not sure if it's the concept that they don't grasp, or if they don't understand enough of the language to find clues within a passage. My guess would be the latter. I go in to post test and wrap up today. I also field test in an ELA class. We'll see what happens...
