If you have a mixture of above and below-level learners and ELL/ESL students , we have a few suggestions for keeping students on track with these concepts:
For extra support, supply students with handouts of the slides beforehand or deliver the digital copy to their device to peruse in advance, giving them a head start on the new content and opportunities to clarify before the whole class presentation.
