 * Schedule a time to meet with me during the week of April 9th to **conference about your final project**. You should bring a draft of your project that is at least 50% complete. (You must make an appointment by this Friday. My office hours are Mondays from 3-4 and Thursdays from 11-12. If possible, try to schedule during these times.)
 * **Revisions to Final Project**
 * For the ELL commentary, "funds of knowledge" refers to the resources (academic, linguistic, social, cultural, etc.) that ELLs have that can support their schooling.
 * If you are using someone else's video to do Task 2 commentary, you need to answer one additional question in your lesson plan commentary:
 * Describe the targeted "language demand" your lesson plans support. Why did you choose this language focus? How does your instruction support students in comprehending and using the academic language associated with this language demand?
 * **Technical Details about the Final Project**
 * If you are submitting a video, you should give it to me on a flash-drive or CD. **It must be one of the following formats**: .mov, .wmv, or .mp4 Your video, per TPA guidelines, should be two unedited segments of a maximum of 10 minutes each
 * Use the task 2 commentary template to write your task 2 commentary. Copy and paste or directly upload to GoogleDocs. Ideally, you should **submit your final project as __one__ GoogleDoc** (lesson plans, ELL commentary, AL commentary, TPA video commentary)
 * **Deadlines**
 * Rough Draft (at least 50% complete) - Schedule a time to conference during the week of April 9th
 * April 16-19 - Final TPA project due (submit as a GoogleDoc)
