Specific considerations for teachers and supervisors using Charlotte Danielson's 2013 Framework for Teaching (FfT)- Collection Contents
In this 35-45 minute professional learning activity, participants explore different ways to use the Specific Considerations resources and identify strategies to strengthen teacher practice and improve student outcomes for educators working with ELLs, Students with Disabilities, and in the Arts.
This template supports teachers in applying the component focus questions in the Specific Considerations documents when reflecting on their instructional practice.

In addition, teachers can use these questions voluntarily as a resource to guide their thinking as they plan and reflect on their instructional practice in how they are meeting the needs of ELLs.
