I join the others before me in congratulating you. I came across your work this past summer via another ESOL site and have shared it with my young elementary school English learners, and have blended your wonderful resources with the workshop models we are using from Teacher’s College, Columbia U. I also share, with great enthusiasm, your site with my grad students at Fairfield University in Connecticut, who are all learning to become future ESOL teachers. (And I bought your book via Amazon 😉
Hi Jennifer,
