| Title | 3 New Reports for the Education of ELLs: Academic Interventions, Adolescent Newcomers, and Accommodations |
| Body | Center on Instruction From http://www.centeroninstruction.org/resources.cfm?category=ell&subcategory=research&grade_start=0&grade_end=12 The Center on Instruction has published a series of three books which contain practical guidelines for different aspects of teaching ELLs. The first book, entitled, Research-Based Recommendations for Instruction and Academic Interventions [K-12] provides evidence-based recommendations for policymakers, administrators, and teachers in K-12 settings who seek to make decisions about instruction and academic interventions for ELLs. The domains of focus include reading and mathematics, and the recommendations apply to both a class-wide instructional format and individualized, targeted interventions, depending on the population and the goals of the instruction. The second set of guidelines, Research-Based Recommendations for Serving Adolescent Newcomers [6-12], was written primarily for the group of ELLs who are adolescent newcomers to the United States and who have a relatively short period of time in which to simultaneously develop academic language skills and master grade-level content. The third set of guidelines, Research-Based Recommendations for the Use of Accommodations in Large-Scale Assessments [K-12], focuses particularly on research-based recommendations on the use of accommodations to increase the valid participation of ELLs in large-scale of language and content assessments under NCLB. All three sets of guidelines can be downloaded at http://www.centeroninstruction.org/resources.cfm?category=ell&subcategory=research&grade_start=0&grade_end=12 . |
