How Does Literacy Instruction Differ for ELLs?

The EAL Toolkit

What can I do to help my Newcomer? Building a positive relationship on the first day is the most important thing you can do for your Newcomers.   

You do not need to speak the same language for students to know that you care about them and that they are welcome in your class. ( It is special to them if you know how to pronounce their name correctly and say just a few words in their language)

-Use visuals and modeling

-Simplify your language and post instructions

-Speak slower-not louder

-Include cooperative learning activities

-Use TPR (Total Physical Response)

-Offer a variety of methods: Audio, Video

-Label the classroom

  Help your Newcomers feel included in your classroom by displaying books and posters about their culture. This will help them understand that they are welcome!
