About this episode

How can I help an English learner in a regular education classroom? This question is right there at the top of all questions asked by teachers along with what to teach EL newcomers. We all know that teaching is complicated and consists of a lot of moving parts that are sometimes hard to juggle. And since my mission is to bring you EL teaching tips in a practical and digestible way, so you can implement them in your next lesson, let's talk about what teachers can do to reach ELs, even newcomers, in their classroom. In today's episode, I will go over simple yet powerful accommodations that can and should be included in every lesson. You may have heard about them before, but I wanted to record a series of episodes that will help clarify how they actually look in real life. And in today's episode, I'm breaking down what it actually means to use visuals strategies for supporting ELs. There's so much more to using visuals than just the surface, so you won't want to miss this.
