Reading: Process, understand, interpret, and evaluate written language, symbols and text with understanding and fluency

2 strategies you plan to include in your instruct this year and why.
1 strategy that you felt did not (or will not) work well with students in your content area or grade level and why.

PART 2- DISCUSSION 6.1

Families can be wonderful support in helping your ELLs achieve in school. Working with the families, however, can be a challenge for teachers. We must be intentional in developing good relations to enable them to support their children in school.

Having read some suggestions for using first language supports and family involvement on the web, consider your own classroom. How could you adapt some of these suggestions to improve communication with your ELL parents?

Outline your own plan to use these resources based on your own classroom. Be specific.

PART 3- ASSIGNMENT 6.1- Classroom Resource Packet

Having checked out the websites for resources, think about the ways you can support ELL language and literacy learning through online practice and materials. We know that many students do not have access to the internet, so think in terms of web resources as well as resources that you could print out or have parents help with at home. Many sites provide support for second language learners through alternative readings, listening practice, writing activities and English conversation practice.

Prepare a resource packet that you can use with ELLs in your classroom. You may use online activities and/or find activities you can use in your own classroom materials. For each you need to include a description of the resource, the purpose of the activity, and the language/content goal for the resource.

EXAMPLE:

https://www.esl-lab.com- This website includes listening activities based on a variety of recorded conversations. Students can listen to conversations at low, moderate and high levels on a variety of topics. Included are pre-listening activities, listening activities, vocabulary activities and post-listening quizzes. Students can be assigned specific conversations for listening practice with the goal of improving listening skills as well as vocabulary practice. Before having students go to this site, preparation would include:

1. Selecting the conversation based on level of proficiency and topic

2. Providing direct instruction and specific step by step directions to assist the student in using the site

3. Specific requirements for the student’s written response and reflection (what did I have trouble with, do well, etc.). Prepare a sheet to be completed by the student during the assignment.

For this assignment, please prepare a packet that includes resources in each of the four language areas that need to be addressed:
