         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Content standards focus on what a students should know and be able to do. (p. 73).<br>2. Language standards focus on the expression of language. <br>3. Language arts discourse can include comparing characters, describing the protagonist, justifying a motive, or telling a story from a different perspective. (p. 75).<br>4. In language arts, different languages are used in different genres (p. 76).<br>5. Syntax of academic language may indicate different tenses (p. 76).<br>6. Instructional supports include sequenced pictures, learning walls, interactive apps,  stories on videos or podcasts, use of home language, and graphic organizers (p. 76). <br>7. Some ways to assess academic oral language would be to have students make oral presentations or summarize text with a partner (p. 77).<br>8. Ways to assess students literacy academic language would be to have them write journals entries or answers questions from an evaluation on a website (p. 77)<br>9. Some ways to explore the academic language of language arts with ELLs is to have them distinguish  stock phrases from genres, multiple meanings, and idiomatic expressions (p. 77). <br>10. It is helpful for students to draw an understanding when both/all their languages are used (p. 78).<br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Every different science has its own language (p. 78).<br>2. In science, learning by doing is the best way for student to grasp the language of it (p. 79). <br>3. Science can differ among cultures, as well. (p. 80).<br>4. In the academic language of science, students may need to explain how to produce a lab report, use complex noun phrases, and use Greek/Latin roots for vocabulary (p. 81).<br>5. Some scientific resources include thermometers, scales, plants, water, elements, graphics of cycles, and software simulations (p. 81). <br>6. In science, students are able to interact for much of their learning (p. 81). For example, watching the stages of a caterpillar turn to a butterfly.<br>7. Young students have the opportunity to make comparisons about processes that happen over time through observation in the classroom (p. 81).<br>8. Students can also watch videos to see different processes (p. 82).<br>9. Due to different cultures, teachers should give students the opportunity to speak about their background and prior knowledge of subjects (p. 83).<br>10. Some key uses of scientific language include reenacting different cycles, describing the impact of pollution, distinguishing between different layers of the earth, etc. (p. 80). <br><br></div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. Social studies includes identifying people, dates, places,  and events. (p. 83). <br>2. Academic language of social studies includes describing these events/people/places, comparing them, and explaining (p. 83). <br>3. Many aspects of history only apply to U.S. curriculum. For example, democracy, freedom, equity, etc. (p. 84).<br>4. Teach history from multiple perspectives (p. 85).<br>5. Dimensions of academic language of social studies include becoming aware of and using passive language, understand the abstract concepts, and argue about historical debates using evidence (p. 85).<br>6. Some social studies discourse could include comparing and contrasting democratic elections and elaborating why everyone in the community is important (p. 85).<br>7. Cooperative learning is a great way for students to learn social studies (p. 86).<br>8. Think-Pair-Share, Round Robin, Numbered Heads Together, and Two-Way Tasks are different cooperative strategies for social studies lessons (p. 86). <br>9. Some graphic and visual supports associated with social studies include maps, globes, compasses, timelines, and artifacts (p. 68).<br>10. Using graphs is one way ELL students can show what they've learned rather than writing an essay on a subject such as population trends (p. 88). </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>1. One example of graphic support for mathematic instruction is venn diagrams comparing two or more ideas(p. 67). For example, comparing rhombuses to squares. <br>2. Mathematical discourse can include describing different ways to solve a problem or giving step-by-step directions to solve a problem. (p. 68)<br>3. Mathematical symbols may differ across cultures (p. 70).<br>4. There are many words to explain the four basic math operations (p. 70).<br>5. Some mathematical terms can have multiple meanings (total, table, percent off) (p. 70, 71).<br>6. The best way to teach math is with multiple modalities such as, blocks, data graphs, number lines, geoboards, scales, calculators, etc. (p. 72).<br>7. One way to find cognates in student's home languages is to have them group up and figure out if there's any cognates in their home language (p. 71). <br>8. When teaching math, it's a good idea to use synonyms for math operations (p. 70).<br>9. Some ways that addition is explained is "and, plus, more, more than, increased by, summer, add, combine, total, etc." (p. 70).<br>10. The way to make a student successful in math is for them to gain the skills needed to problem solve (p. 72).</div>]]></description>
