"You Do It Together"

• • Student-teacher collaborative learning: Top-down and bottom-up approach

  • Student-to-student interaction with slight assistance from teacher

    • Assistance in the form of prompts and cues

  • Students should be encouraged to use academic language

  • Language is only understood when produced

    • Students must actively be engaged in using new vocabulary for deeper understanding to take place

      • This is true for both ESL and academic language

  • This should not be considered quiet time

  • For learning to take place students need to be actively engaged

    • A good classroom management plan is important
