Some background building skills are:
-Introduce the main ideas of the reading without using the book
-Use pictures, videos, and pre-reading games that relate to the reading
-Allow students to break off into groups and let them discuss the title page and any flip-through pictures or material that caught their eye]]> 2017-06-01 12:25:47 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174797610 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174798338 -Phonemic Awareness

During the workshop, there will be reading skills modeled and explained. A few of the skills that will be modeled include:
-Classify and Categorize
-Using Context Clues
-Fact and Opinion
-Drawing Conclusions
-Making Judgments
-Sequence Events]]> 2017-06-01 12:33:26 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174798970 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799054 Reading Strategies are a conscious plan that is taught. All strategies that will be modeled during the workshop consist of:
-Prediction
-Mental Image
-Rereading
-Adjusting Reading Rate
-Making Connections
-Making Inferences
-Self question
-Summarize
-Using context to confirm meaning
-Using text structure]]> 2017-06-01 12:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799054 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799142 In order to teach an ELL student, teachers need to be aware of some of the cultural difference and connections between their home country and America. Some aspects that need to be known are:
-Understanding their culture
-Understanding language acquisition
-Understan language development
-Know what they "Can Do"
-Understand what bilingual and biliterate means]]> 2017-06-01 12:34:21 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799142 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799228 English Language Learners hear most of their vocabulary from conversations in the classroom environment. It is important to speak at an academic level that will continue to teach the students more vocabulary. Using synonyms for simple words can enhance a students vocabulary just from everyday communication. ]]> 2017-06-01 12:34:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799228 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799410 Overall, students can be categorized by the amount of vocabulary words. Students who do not continually learn vocabulary are the students who fall behind in school. 
Tier 2 words can be described as academic words. They span the curriculum and need to be specifically taught. One of the main reasons students fall behind in vocabulary is when teachers assume that the students know the Tier 2 words. 
Tier 3 words are content specific. They are used in specialized subjects and will need to be thoroughly taught. ]]> 2017-06-01 12:35:53 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799410 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799520 Scaffolding is the level of instruction that should always be within the zone of proximal development, which in return will be challenging to students. Some methods that will be discussed at the workshop are graphic organizers, outline templates, note taking guides, and strategies to remembering in the future.]]> 2017-06-01 12:36:31 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799520 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799590 Authors are the best writers, therefore, it is best to have a book help ELL students when learning grammar. Teachers could select texts with repeated refrains, use interactive read alouds, and continually use repetition. ]]> 2017-06-01 12:37:02 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174799590 nmiles0871 https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174803690 Teaching Reading to English Language Learners]]> 2017-06-01 12:59:29 UTC https://padlet.com/nmiles0871/jk03ifsd87nl/wish/174803690
