If your students can read about screen time but struggle to explain how it affects them, this resource gives them the structured practice they need.
These ESL screen time stations help middle school students build reading, writing, speaking, and listening skills while exploring how screen time affects the brain, focus, sleep, and mood.
Students move through a set of predictable, engaging activities that strengthen informational reading, academic vocabulary, discussion, and written responses—all within a format that works for real classrooms with mixed proficiency levels.
