secondary education. The latest addition is an ESOL class in a neighborhood in Boston, Massachusetts. The lesson focuses on food vocabulary and verb tenses. All the videos are free and stream online. The MLoTS videos are based on state curriculum standards
or frameworks or on other best practices. They are intended for teacher professional development. They can be used as part of face-to-face or online courses, workshops, or study circles, and can also be accessed by individual teachers who on their own want
a "window" to look in on other teaching colleagues' classrooms and teaching practices.</span></font></p>
