Labeling
Hand Gestures
To go along with the labels, hand gestures
assist ELL students because they can visually
see what your are verbally saying. When using
the words labelled and those not labelled,
touch the item that you are talking about.
Example: Class, can I please have you line up
at the door. While you say this, walk over to
the door and touch it.

4. Strategies
There needs to be opportunities provided for
students to use learning strategies (previewing a
story, making connections to real life,
highlighting, and taking notes). The goal is that
students will be engaged in these strategies
while they are reading, listening, speaking, and
writing. In addition, the ultimate goal is for them
to develop independence and self monitoring.
5. Interaction
Support language and content objective through
grouping configurations (large, small, and pairs).
Provide sucient wait time for student
responses. Have students elaborate their
responses (not just yes or no answers).
