ELL Strategies

One strategy that I feel is very helpful in supporting English Language Learners is the use of models, visual aids and diagrams. The use of visual aids not only helps English Language Learners but can help and very useful to all students. Visuals make the language more accessible to ELL students. When teachers can display pictures, diagrams, and charts in their classroom, they are supporting their English Language Learners. This helps these students because they might not be able to speak the language, but their is a good chance that they are going to be able to understand a visual. This is a strategy that I will definitely incorporate into my classroom because it will be helpful for all of my students.
