The GO TO Strategies:

Scaffolding Options for Teachers of English Language Learners, K-12

The GO TO Strategies Project originated with Project EXCELL (EXceptional Collaboration for English Language Learning), a five-year federally funded grant partnership between North Kansas City Schools (NKCS) and the University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC). It was designed to be used as a resource by general education teachers of English language learners (ELLs), ELL teachers, special education teachers, principals, and other supervisors overseeing the instruction of diverse groups of students in North Kansas City Schools and elsewhere.
