English Language Learners

Picture
As we increase the rigor of the content we are teaching, it is important that we take into consideration the academic language and content needs of our English Language Learners.

Stanford has just launched a national initiative to "map out and meet the growing academic language and content needs of ELLs as Common Core academic standards are implemented by schools and districts around the nation."  Other resources include the ColorinColorado blog by Dr. Diane Staeher Fenner.  Southwest Comprehension Center at West Ed has excellent resources about the impact of common core on ELLs. The SIOP Model and Project Glad offer great resources for teaching ELLs.  Below are some videos of teacher conversations around planning Common Core lessons for English Language Learners.
