A couple of options for you to choose from:

1) What challenges are unique to secondary school, adolescent ELLs versus younger, elementary-age ELLs? How might youa address these unique challenges?

3) What did you find to be the most effective/useful strategy suggested by Fisher et al.? Why? Would you be willing to implement it in your classroom?
