Hello! My name is Shelly Cook and I am the Language Development Coach at Willow Grove School. I help children acquire the English language and help them meet the academic targets for kindergarten students in district 96. The children in my classroom attend a full day of kindergarten. They are in my classroom for half of the day, and then they are in a regular kindergarten classroom for the other half of the day. Each child will receive 900 minutes of intensive English instruction, reading, writing, and math. Ms. Stender is the fabulous instructional aide who works with the children in the Elephant class too. She is so good with the children and they just love her! I love working with all the wonderful children and staff at Willow Grove School!
