I'm in love with talking point for teachers and want everyone to know about it. http://talkingpts.org/ ;

It a site and soon to be app where teachers can type in their native language and the message is translated to the ESL families native language and texted to their phone.

level 1- watch video on home page and read about us and why section - sign up for account
 evidence - ideas for ways or plans to use talking points

level 2 - talk to ESL students explain the texting, send home parent letter, sign up families on account, send out first welcome message
evidence - screen shot but cover last names and phone numbers for confidentiality 

level 3 - get families to text back. 
Evidence - screen shot - but cover names for confidentiality
