The document provides tips for developing literacy skills in English language learners (ELLs). It recommends teachers use interactive reading strategies that engage students and allow them to use their experiences to understand texts. Specific strategies include intensive reading of whole texts, extensive reading of many texts for main ideas, and skimming and scanning for specific information. It also recommends the "Take Five Model" where students get ready, read, reread using organizers, respond through journals, and react in groups. Teachers should model different reading strategies like prereading, during reading, and postreading activities to help ELLs comprehend texts.

Reading Focus Teachers should focus on the attention of the reading process. Bottom Up This model shows reading as a process of decoding symbols into sounds. Top Down Students process the text in a way where they use their experiences to help them understand the passage. Interactive Reading The role of the reader is vital in building meaning. The students use their schema and the bottom up and top down reading processes to construct meaning. Educators should model the different reading strategies in class to the ELL students to help them strengthen their skills in Literacy. Intensive Reading Reading for complete understanding of an entire text. Extensive Reading This is rapid reading for main ideas of a large amount of text. Skimming Requires the reader to look for the main or general idea of a passage. Scanning A quick overview of text, looking for details or information. Group Activity Take Five Model
A strategy to incorporate the four reading skills in the class.
Get Ready (review previous work, develop vocab.) Read (reading with a focus, identifying main idea) Reread (use graphic organizers and KWL charts) Respond (complete response journals) React (conducted as a group/pairs peer led conferences) All students read the same text but at different proficiency levels. Reading Strategies
Using different strategies prior, during and after reading to enhance
comprehension of the context. Prereading Strategy Skim the text to grasp a general idea. Make predictions about the context before reading. Read the introduction and conclusion. During Reading Strategy Students pause their reading and predict the next sequence in story. Draw pictures to show what they have understood. A good strategy for ELL students, especially if they experience difficulty in expressing their ideas through words. After Reading Strategy Students will have the opportunity to retell what they have read. Students could make connections with the text they read (Text to Text, Text to World and Text to Self). Expressing their thoughts and opinions. https://d2l.educ.queensu.ca/content/CTE179FALL/C ONT539/downloads/ch6.LiteracyAndTheEnglishLang uageLearner.pp194-209.pdf
