Supporting English Language Learners

This blog fulfills a course requirement for EDM 510 at the University of South Alabama

Please view the following video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09PrmLppQ1A. This video describes six strategies for teaching English language learners. Even though its focus is on preschool age children, these strategies are helpful for students of all ages. In addition, when these strategies are used in the classroom they benefit all learners, not just ELLs. Please pick at least one strategy that you feel would be most relevant to you in your field and write a paragraph (about 5 sentences) describing the strategy and how you could use it to enhance student learning.
