According to the National Education Association, “By 2025 nearly one out of every four public school students will be an English Language Learner.” Are we prepared to provide differentiated literacy support for these students? In the Shark Tank we will hear from three literacy companies who provide ELL support – Istation, ThinkCerca and LexiaCore5. They will pitch their solutions to our three teacher-sharks.
