Last week I presented with Leah Richardson, a fabulous English as a Second Language teacher at my school. We presented (to the M.A.T. art education grad students at Tufts/School of the Museum of Fine arts) an introduction to teaching English Language Learners and specifically as an art teacher who works with many students.
The powerpoint has been posted on Patty Bode's teaching tools website via Tufts University. Please feel free to contact me if you'd like any related information. Patty is an incredible art educator and pioneer in multicultural education. She has other great powerpoints and teaching tools on this link. If you ever have the opportunity to see her present I highly recommend it!

Art and ELLs go well together, and this presentation sounds really cool and well-thought-out. However, I can speak from experience as a student when I say that it might be daunting to take online classes and attempt to pass many tests. In private, some classmates have acknowledged that they pay someone to take my online exam in order to get through the semester. Sometimes it's about getting through without burning out, even when it's not ideal.
