Title: Teaching English to learners with Special Educational Needs: Myths and Realities
Body:
Marie Delaney writes, "Do you think that you have learners with SENs [special educational needs] in your class and you are not sure how to support them? Many countries across the world are now following policies of social and educational inclusion for learners with SENs. This means that more and more learners with SENs are in mainstream classrooms. Many teachers do not feel that their teacher training has prepared them for including learners with SENs in their classrooms. In my experience, there are some common myths and misconceptions around the teaching of learners with SENs."

Body:
From https://elementaryenglishlanguagelearners.weebly.com
Valentina Gonzalez shares six activities especially for English learners in the first week of school. She writes, "I picked these activities because they keep ELs at the heart by building community, encouraging interaction, lowering the affective filter, and they can be used later in the year for more academic lessons."
