About the Author  |  Comments

About This Book

Unless you’ve been trained to be an ELL specialist or happen to have one on hand, it’s tough to always know what to do to support the English learners in your classroom. That’s why ASCD has this great new resource that provides teachers with ready-made tools they can use to engage English learners in lessons, build their literacy skills, and maintain an inclusive classroom. By keeping multiple copies of this binder on hand throughout your school, teachers have quick access to winning solutions, including:

  • Time-honored scaffolds for helping English learners access the curriculum and make meaning of new content
  • Research-based literacy strategies for language acquisition and development
  • Cooperative learning, differentiation, and co-teaching strategies for facilitating content learning

Whenever teachers encounter challenges that relate to English language learning, they can quickly get help from more than 175 tools, including

  • Graphic organizers that help ELL students make connections to content
  • Vocabulary tools that help ELL students see new words in context and engage in activities that increase understanding of vocabulary terms
  • Literacy strategies for helping English learners in every grade develop their skills in reading, writing, speaking, and listening

Additional tools help teachers work together on assessments and lesson planning for ELL students, including a Backward Design Unit Template that follows ASCD’s Understanding by Design[R] framework.
