FL classrooms include students with different backgrounds and learning styles, a variety of first languages, and diverse levels of literacy in English and/or other languages. They also include students with special needs, such as students with learning disabilities and attention and/or emotional issues. In this institute, presenters will identify a number of general strategies and case-specific accommodations for addressing diversity in an FL classroom. Teaching techniques for diverse classrooms, including ways to address multiple intelligences, will be described and modeled and then participants and presenters will discuss their experiences with diverse classrooms and share successful classroom behavior modification and instructional strategies. Participants will analyze hypothetical classroom case studies and then design accommodations that promote inclusive practices.
