Making ELL students feel welcome in classroom 

# data[].attributes.body
This is important because the best way to make them feel welcome is to tell them. Otherwise these families may let their fears of being unwelcomed, school records being public to government, keep home due to local immigration enforcement activity and etc will be protected. To begin, you can do this by posting welcome signs and messages and expressing this when you see them. You can also hold parent information meetings, phone calls, or collaborate with the community and build strong relationships with the families. This is important because early schooling has a significant impact on children's development. Communicating with these families and celebrating these students cultures and countries can prevent bullying in the classroom

ELL students may experience the following stages of cultural accommodation:
- euphoria: initial excitement about new environment.
- culture shock: then potentially experience anger, hostility, frustration, homesick, or resentment towards new culture.
- acceptance: with time they will accept their surroundings.
- assimilation- may embrace and adapt to their "new" culture.
Students may also face a variety of other experiences. Students may face a silent period, which is considered the first stage in language acquisition. Patience and setting up opportunities where these students may feel more comfortable can help ease the process. Additionally, students may face trauma or hardships in the US they didn't prior. Learning about expierences they may have encountered and taking training in trauma-informed practices can help.
