Students can learn by reading, writing, listening, speaking, drawing, moving around, and more. Presenting material in different ways allows for students to deepen their understanding of the material. This is especially helpful for ELL students. They can benefit from these differentiated learning methods to create different pathways and connections while learning English.]]> 2022-05-09 04:16:53 UTC https://padlet.com/ekraeer1/4brh3mmxpx5e8c0i/wish/2175034073 ekraeer1 https://padlet.com/ekraeer1/4brh3mmxpx5e8c0i/wish/2175035452 Here are just a few ways in teachers can engage ELL families:
