ELL News on Hold

Because of the issues with the NWP Connect's platform provider, we're putting ELL Connect (and ELL News) on hold.

But that doesn't mean the conversation is over!

Join us at Know ELLs, sponsored by the Great Valley Writing Project. It's an online community for TCs who teach ELLs, people like YOU!
