Real question for ELL teachers. 🎙️

Of the four scaffold types — sentence frames, graphic organizers, vocabulary support, and modeling — which one do you feel most confident tiering for multiple levels right now? 🤔

• Sentence frames — I already do different versions for different levels. 🏗️
• Graphic organizers — I adjust these based on the group. 📊
• Vocabulary support — I tier this one well. 📚
• Modeling — I honestly hadn't thought about tiering modeling before. 🎤

• All of them are a work in progress. 🔄

Drop your answer below. 💬

And tell me — which one do you want to get better at tiering?
I read every comment, and it shapes exactly what we keep talking about. 🫂
