Ernest Hemingway, an acclaimed American novelist, said, “My working habits are simple: long periods of thinking, short periods of writing.”
How do Hemingway’s pre-writing habits compare to your own?
What has been your experience with prewriting activities in the past?
If you do not use a prewriting activity when writing(be honest!), what prevents you from using one?
How might using prewriting activities help you, personally, become a stronger writer?
What is an event from your life that you may want to use for next week’s Personal Narrative essay? a memorable child hood experience you can make it up
What are some reasons why this story could be interesting to readers?

An in-class activity that could be used as a means of employing multiple assessments of ELLs, and all students in general, is having students use journal writing to respond to a lesson or story. The response can be a choice of sentence starters that allows them to shape where their thoughts will take them, and they go from there. As teachers we need to make our expectations known on these responses, how many sentences? How long are they (are they meaty or bones we can build from)? Once the writing time is over, a time for sharing with the class what was written will provide a great time for assessment by listening to them speak/read to the class their response. The journal can be collected for review of their writing to assess how they are doing. The scoring can be modified for our ELLs from that of our other students to accommodate their proficiency level and goals.
Multiple assessments are important because they allow us to assess in more than one focus area for our students. Using multiple assessments in one project, assignment, or in-class activity allows us to hit on several areas of focus at one time. There is no one assessment that will tell us, as teachers, how our students are progressing through the year. We must capitalize on ways to assess our students’ multiple ways at a time. We can still monitor and chart where necessary in this manner, but our assessments must be clear in what we are looking for, otherwise they are not going to be a good means of tracking (how can one track what they are uncertain they are tracking).

The use of fomative assessments in the classroom to support the common core standards and ongoing is a great tool to have and use for all students especially ELL students. One formative assessment I would use in the classroom would be to keep a daily journal. With this daily journal it would be something like an exit ticket for the student. What we have learned from the day would be what they are writing about in their journal. The students will need to write down three facts and put them into sentences or in a short paragraph. This will be helping them with their writing skills as well as reading skills becasue I would have them share it with peers to read. In addition to keeping a journal students can read one of their passages out loud to the class at the end of the week. This is helping with their speaking skills. I can see how far each student has progressed in each of the three categories of reading, writing and speaking. I can know what each student needs to work on to further their English.Comment as you see fit. Min 40 words or more

Being a leader can be very difficult whether one has been one or not. When it comes to two groups coming together to merge one team can be both positive and negative. Two groups of different personalities, work styles as well as leadership responsibilities can change and challenge the whole structure of the section. If done in a positive way change can be good for everyone involved.
Communicating with the incoming manager is necessary for a successful merger. Getting their viewpoint of how his/her team’s works, who does what on the incoming team, any personality or cultural issues are important to know about.
When it comes to short-term issues how the employees are going to be incorporated into the new section. What type of training needs to be done for the new people? What are the overall goals of the section? Will the supervisor need to change their leadership style based on the amount of personnel they are now responsible for? Since there are new employees they would possibly have to go to a directive leadership role to let them know what their tasks are etc. (Martin, 2012)
Long term issues may include negativity with the change of the group dynamic, how the employees may or may not get along with each other and the new supervisor, decisions on whether individuals will be retained or

“Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work.”
Talent is something we can’t obtain, It is something we born with and everyone have a unique talent or something. Success doesn’t come easy if we are not working very hard for that, and I have found this from my uncle’s experiences and in also our life. Before success coming to your life he can take a year, the work is not there it will never come.
First of all, I will also say talent is not everything because when you know your goal, you believing in yourself and work for that objective you are looking for. Knowing your target is key to your success.For example, My uncle is a chef in the hotel and when is cooking sometimes even though he has not enough ingredients he can create something with what he got. He loves so much what is doing that every day is trying to improve and give him some goals he wants to reach.
Secondly, When you trust yourself you will have the successful life you are looking for. everyone always gives a compliment to my uncle to tell him that his doing a great job because he likes what he is doing. Due to that, he started to believe in himself and nothing or nobody can’t deceive him for something he knows his value. People are not talented everywhere but we all have somewhere where we are talented.
Next, people are working to get success in their life. The talented make people different and special. Some people at school have this talent to remember everything when the teacher is talking and others can’t remember easily. Not everyone has this kind of memory and capacity to do it. It makes them different from talented people.
In conclusion, I will say “Talent is cheaper than table salt” mean the talented his inside in you we can’t pay for that. Moreover, We don’t know how much the talent cost. If you keep showing up and keep putting in the work each day for sure success will come or maybe you will know where you are gifted and to know the success you have in you.
