Thanks! It seems a little confusing at first, but just exploring through it makes more sense.

Yes, I agree.  I was thankful for the link in the slide deck for the groups.  I believe it will be a great resource and very helpful during this time of digital learning.

I love this. I'd seen it but never clicked on it. I am a media specialist so this is heaven for me. I have been searching resources for my students and staff and making webinars so this will help me even more.

Thank you! I cant wait to look through all the resources that I did not know were there, and also share them in a PLT!  (Also- I hope this comment is the correct way and not private!)

I felt the same way but as I explore, it is getting easier and we have access to so many great resources.

I was part of the group in the fall that was working on the Beginning Teacher Support Group before the launch in December. I am trying to prepare to assist my staff in using this wonderful tool and I can honestly say that after "exploring" and then reviewing through this webinar...it is much easier to process mentally! So I would advise any first timers to explore and then review the video...it will help!

I may be replying to only one comment; if so, sorry, and I'll try to figure out how to post to discussion as a whole later.

In looking over the ESL resources, I found mostly ones that came from the Language Arts curriculum in general, and few that were targeted specifically to English Learners. Most were also geared either to higher grade levels and/or higher fluencies than my students are/have. Most frustrating is that so many of the lessons appeared multiple times; as I scrolled through what seemed like an eternity of listed courses, I felt that a lot of my time was being wasted. My next step is to go back and look closely at the ones I have saved.

Amazing how much one can forget about the processes described in a webinar after less than two days, especially if one is attending other webinars in the interim.
