QSSSA: The Essential Method for Structuring Conversations in All Classrooms
Do you want to see your students talking more about their learning? Do you want your students to build confidence and academic language? Do you want to see your emergent bilingual students make progress as they grow their proficiency in the target language? QSSSA is the tool you need.
