Teacher-consultants from three writing project sites will lead participants in an examination of digital storytelling work composed by teachers to scaffold learning for their English language learner students, as well as digital storytelling work composed by the non-native-English–speaking students themselves. Participants will have an opportunity to discuss these digital compositions and imagine how they might engage in similar practices in their own classrooms and writing project sites.
