important for student success and discuss problems that
arise in a classroom when children have minimal support
outside of it. (5 minutes)
Split class into 6 groups of 3 (2 minutes) and have them
discuss three strategies they could use in a classroom to

around to facilitate conversation. If extra time, jigsaw.
A person from a group is chosen by having mini football

with (5 minutes). Any questions? If this takes less than 5
minutes, we share strategies we came up with for each case.
