Thalia’s Progress
From the video, it was learned that Thalia is a student who had half of her class in English and half of the class in Spanish.

St. Clair is able to collaborate with Thalia’s mother and Maria Castro, the Spanish language teacher, to create a complete profile of Thalia because they do assessments with Thalia.

Mr. St. Clair is able to appropriate instruction for Thalia because he is working well with the Spanish teacher and Thalia mother. They are working together in trying to give Thalia the best education that they can give
