Teachers on How to Help ELLs
The Center for Excellence in Teaching
and Learning at Stony Brook University has developed a web site to help
mainstream classroom teachers understand what ELLs are going through and
to provide concrete advice on how best to help students and make the classroom
experience a rewarding one for both student and teacher. Topics include
cultural awareness issues, commonly encountered challenges, maintaining
a student's first language and strategies for promoting success in grades
K-12. This careful look at the needs of ELLs can be a particulary
useful resource for classroom teachers who have had little experience with
students whose first language is not English. It may also aid ESL teachers
who are called upon to advise their colleagues about the specific needs
of Ells.
