Annotations for Research-based Practices for English Language Learners - Carolyn Derby Page 1-

ELL - English Language Learners

The strategies here would cater to diverse groups.

The goals of the reading programme is for understanding, learning and interest.

For the upper Primary (my thoughts), they would have foundational skills like phonemic awareness, phonics, fluency and vocabulary.

The Main Strategy
1) Explicit Skill instruction
2) Student-directed activities
3) Instructional strategies that enhance understanding
4) opportunities to practise
5) Systematic student assessment

How to improve retention
1) Routines
2) embeds redunacy in lessons
3) provide explicit discussion of vocabulary and structure
