Title | Teaching Science to English Language Learners |
Body |
Larry Ferlazzo writes, “In addition to having to learn a new language and adapt to a new culture, our English Language Learner students face the challenge of having to learn the content knowledge that is also being taught in classes. Science is obviously one of those content knowledge areas, and the new Next Generation Science Standards add one more wrinkle to teacher's strategies in making science more accessible to ELLs. “Today, educators Alicia Johal, Maria Montalvo-Balbed, Donna Barrett-Williams, Caleb Cheung, Laura Prival, Claudio Vargas and Ariane Huddleston share their suggestions on using the NGSS with English Language Learners.” Read the suggestions at http://blogs.edweek.org/teachers/classroom_qa_with_larry_ferlazzo/2016/01/response_teaching_science_to_english_language_learners.html |
