I was hoping someone would be able to tell me if I am on the right track with this. What Works, any idea?

For the professional need I was thinking of talking about the fact that we have a growing number of ESL students as well as students that are strictly Spanish speaking. Since I am not Spanish speaking, I have been working with the Spanish teacher to gain some basic phrases so I can communicate with students. I have also been working with the ESL teacher to find Health Education material that they can use to gain content knowledge, as well as translate my quizzes and tests that they can access if they do not understand the question in English. As evidence I could show some of their projects and quizzes before and after as well as maybe a self assessment regarding their knowledge of the content having the material in both languages available.

Am I on the right track?? Thanks!
