Being able to work together to support Ell learners is important in the ability to provide different approaches of learning and supportive resources in their education.

Example: teachers coming together to make content in Ell learners native language and English.

Starting with the question: What can this student do well?

This book comes with ideas and tools for teaching and learning to promote the success of EL & dually identified students by building on their advantages and helping them overcome areas of difficulty.

Example: affirming talk

Changing the perspective from "These kids talk too much" to "They are excellent talkers, how do we help them use this strength to improve other language skills?"

Why is the learning environment addressed in this text?

This principal is highlighted in Esparza Brown's book because the learning environment is the ocean in which students sink or swim. As Esparza Brown points out, "reading and writing activities float on a sea of talk" (2019, p. 2). Classrooms that are caring, engaging, rigorous, and scaffolded will provide the positive affect that students need to thrive.

Using all stakeholders to support all students. Specefically supporting dual identified students with multiple speciliasts and general education teachers.

Non-example: We only speak ENGLISH during this time

While it is popular to establish boundaries, expressing limitations on language also limits student ability to express. While boundaries are important, humanity and expression of humanity should be sacred <3

Extracting from existing resources and successes will bolster: collaborative school teams, evidence- based best practices. There isn't necessarily a requirement to recreate the system, tinkering with the existing one could also manifest desired results. This could be achieved by learning from colleagues and school systems which have managed to accomplish the above.

Example & Non-Example of Rich Learning Environments

cwelch84 — 2022-04-01 00:34:10 UTC

An example of a tool for rich learning environments is MTSS, or Multi-Tier Systems of Support. With MTSS, students' struggles can be detected and addressed early. This system is evidence-based and helps create timely interventions for dual identified students.

A non-example from the text is letting students fail before we address their needs.

Example

Cross content collaboration

Non example

Achieving standards is of more importance than cultivating a learning environment which enables the improvement of ELs and dual identified students.

Resources and guidance with supporting evidence of why/how they're effective. (Ex. checklists, protocol examples and resource links)
(Non ex. "this is a problem so we shouldn't do this..")

Key elements; best programs and practices for dual-identified students. System change research (currently seven states have manuals available to the public on what they are doing to support) - Oregon is one of the seven states). What systems are in place to support best programs and practices?
