Materials/resources would be graphic organizers, word banks, and visual aids. Student grouping is when students are paired together or in small groups. This could also be when the teacher is with a small group of students. Instruction can be with vocab words the student already knows and a reduction of modeling. ]]> 2021-10-06 12:34:32 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796278764 Erin Patrick--Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796290616 I thought the section with Ms. Lawrence and her class was very interesting. I never realized that an ESL teacher would be doing activities relating to the community and daily life. She used the topic of littering and scaffolded her students into being able to write a paragraph using a graphic organizer. ]]> 2021-10-06 12:38:36 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796290616 Erin Patrick--Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796299744 How do you address differences in culture? For instances, in some cultures certain hand gestures are not appropriate, but it is acceptable in others. We do not want the student to "get rid of" their native culture, but at the same time they should be aware if something is not appropriate. ]]> 2021-10-06 12:41:45 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796299744 Julia Simpkins- Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796538222 https://seidlitzblog.org/2019/12/18/teaching-techniques-to-scaffold-reading-for-english-learners/]]> 2021-10-06 13:47:33 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796538222 Julia Simpkins- Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796571946 I discovered that scaffolding can look different for every student. Students need more of less support depending on their levels and the types of scaffolding that they need can be completely different. Scaffolding is something that needs to be tailored to each student in the class in order for them to succeed successfully.]]> 2021-10-06 13:55:37 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796571946 Julia Simpkins- Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796611771 I really liked the very first scenario that Chapter 3 gives us with Mr. Lee's class. It is really important for teachers to know that supports can be given to students and everything does not need to be equal. Often people want things to be equal and allow students to be on an even playing field that the forget that some students start lower than others so they need that support to be brought up. I also really liked that he stood up for his decision. Often teachers just go with what administration tells them. He stood up for his students to ensure that they got the accommodations that they need.]]> 2021-10-06 14:05:37 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796611771 Julia Simpkins- Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796620355 How do you give the students accommodations and the supports that they need without making them feel out of place? I am worried that these necessary supports will draw attention to them. Also how do I explain to the other students that they do not need these same supports?]]> 2021-10-06 14:07:45 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796620355 Aamaria Hall- Discovered https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796692005 I discovered that using realia in a lesson is a great technique to activate prior knowledge and build on learning throughout a lesson. This is a hands on and real life experience that may be more effective than pictures or reading about materials.]]> 2021-10-06 14:25:56 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796692005 Aamaria Hall- Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796702707 I thought that the pages discussing scaffolding materials in Chapter 3 were interesting. Specifically referring to the paragraph on using English/Bilingual dictionaries was interesting because typical dictionaries that we use on our day to day, would not be an effective tool for ELLs. They may not understand the definitions or even be able to find the words in the book. This helped me understand the importance of knowing how to use materials and why some may not be as effective for every student.]]> 2021-10-06 14:28:42 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796702707 Aamaria Hall- Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796708480 In the intro video, you discussed how most students may not need to learn basic skills and concepts, just English phrasing, If they have not developed these skills, how would you go about teaching them? ]]> 2021-10-06 14:30:10 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796708480 Corey Och- Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796714499 https://www.mshouser.com/teaching-tips/8-strategies-for-scaffolding-instruction ]]> 2021-10-06 14:31:43 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796714499 Abby Fleenor - Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796750654 I discovered that there are three different categories of scaffolds. The three categories are materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. Learning more about the various categories of scaffolding is beneficial for both educators and learners. Knowing which scaffold is beneficial for a particular instructional task can best support the needs of EL students. Materials and resources would include graphic organizers, visuals, and dictionaries or glossaries. Instruction would include repetition, paraphrasing, and instruction of background knowledge. Lastly, student grouping would include structured pair or small-group work. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:40:48 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796750654 Abby Fleenor - Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796752713 https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11251-015-9351-z#Sec34]]> 2021-10-06 14:41:20 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796752713 Corey Och- Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796753134 Something that I discovered this week in chapter 3 is that there are three different categories of scaffolds. These categories are materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. Scaffolding is not one size fits all and sometimes certain categories of scaffolds may not work for specific students. When planning a lesson, it is important to know your ELL students and take into consideration the language demands of the lesson that is going to be taught. When doing these things, a teacher can then effectively and appropriately select materials and teach the lesson to reach ELL students. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:41:26 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796753134 Abigail P- Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796754596 2021-10-06 14:41:52 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796754596 Abigail P - Discovered https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796768914 Cognitive skills (reading, content knowledge, abstract thinking, and problem solving) students have from their Native language can transfer to their second language, but do not do so automatically. They need to be teacher guided to help reinforce those skills and show how they are in their second language. This is done by scaffolding, prompts, and reminders. Scaffolds are grouped into three main categories of materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. It is important to use the appropriate scaffolds and use different scaffolds during different types of proficiency levels. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:45:36 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796768914 Abby Fleenor - Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796773226 I enjoyed reading about the scenario about Ms. Lawerence's class. I thought it worked very well how the teacher began with allowing the students to choose an issue to write about. I think too often educators place students in a box and only allow them to work on what the educator wants. While Ms. Lawerence is selecting the overall theme, I feel like giving the ESOL class some independence would make them more motivated to work. She eventually scaffolds them to the point where the students are able to effectively use a graphic organizer to write a paragraph. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:46:44 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796773226 Corey Och- Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796780873 When reading chapter 3, I enjoyed observing through the text different classroom scenarios that require scaffolding, and reading about how a teacher adapted her instruction. Particularly, Ms. Olsen and scaffolding her unit on immigration. I learned that it is possible to scaffold instruction even when there is a wide range of ELLs in one class. She had students all doing the same thing for part of the lesson, and then scaffolded as necessary for her beginners, low intermediates, and high intermediates. Even when students have different levels of proficiency, they can all benefit from scaffolding one lesson different ways to meet their specific needs. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:48:44 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796780873 Abigail P- Observations https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796792102 Teachers need to be very active in the way they teach to help English Language Learners flourish. It is important to use different scaffolding techniques and to always openly being advocating for effective instruction. ELL's should have the availability to access content just like non ELL students do. This means teachers should use the supports they have to make the correct scaffolds for students like scaffolded lesson plan checklists and available resources provided to them by the school. A teacher needs to know her ELLs and develop lesson planning around them to help them get the most information as possible from a lesson. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:51:40 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796792102 One Image.

The image shown above that I found for scaffolding really stuck out to me, as it clearly explains many ideas about the technique of scaffolding. I like how visual and colorful the image is, and how many details and boxes that it includes too. This is important as it gives teachers much information about the technique of scaffolding that they are able to use in the classroom to benefit their students. As result, the link where I found this image is included below. It is actually taken from a video on this topic that is on YouTube.

If students are at different levels of learning, I feel like it would be hard on the teacher to be sure you're giving the right amount of scaffolds for each learner. ]]> 2021-10-06 14:53:09 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796797667 Abigail P- Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796802275 How do you know when to gradually remove scaffolds for your students, and how do you do so while still keeping the structure remaining? Also if you remove a scaffold and the child continues to struggle, how do you add a scaffold back without making them feel less confident in themselves and their work? ]]> 2021-10-06 14:54:21 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796802275 Erin Sassak. One Discovery. https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796803188 From reading chapter three in our course textbook, I was able to discover three different instructional practices that can be used in order to scaffold learning for students in the classroom. These include the ideas of preteaching academic language and vocabulary, providing concise background knowledge, and the use of language with specific tasks. Out of all of these, the one that I found the most interesting is teachers being able to provide students with the appropriate background knowledge of the topic that they need before teaching the lesson plan to them. This is critical because students need to be able to access their previous learning and experiences and see how that relates to the new information. With this, there are a variety of steps that teachers can take for this as a way to ensure that students are getting the most background knowledge that they need in order to learn and succeed.]]> 2021-10-06 14:54:34 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796803188 Erin Sassak. One Observation. https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796806722 From reading chapter three in our course textbook, I was able to make an observation about what I learned, and it includes the following information. It was important that the textbook explains how collaboration can be a role in scaffolding instruction for ELs in the classroom. With this, I observed how a content area teacher and an ESOL teacher can work together and in the lesson planning process, as a way to benefit the students and have them learn the most. In the example that was provided in the textbook for this idea, I was able to read and observe how a science teacher and a EL specialist were able to plan a lesson together, where both of them had their ideas to share about the topic. It worked out well as they might have been able to think about ideas collaboratively, in which they might not have thought about if they were working alone. The example mentions how they gave their ideas on how to best teach the lesson plan and provide the most instruction to the students too.]]> 2021-10-06 14:55:24 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796806722 Erin Sassak. One Question. https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796810773 One question that I have after reading through this chapter in the course textbook includes the following. Is it more beneficial for the students to receive scaffolding in whole group instruction or small group instruction, such as in pair work or small group work? For example, are students to learn more out of the lesson plan if it is a small group instruction instead of a whole class approach? Or does it depend on the learning needs and abilities of the students and the content that is being taught to them?]]> 2021-10-06 14:56:23 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796810773 Corey Och- Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796811423 Referring to the chart in the introduction video that has quadrants A, B, C, and D: How long should instruction take place in each quadrant? How long does it take for ELL students to be able to handle instruction in each quadrant and then move on to the next?]]> 2021-10-06 14:56:32 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796811423 Emily Bednar - Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796847700 https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fmedium.com%2Fa-teachers-hat%2Fcontextualizing-learning-using-scaffolding-a6046434fc88&psig=AOvVaw39-XSjgmDaN0b8-8eHEz7J&ust=1633619075861000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCLCLgbiHtvMCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAJ]]> 2021-10-06 15:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796847700 Emily Bednar - Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796884603 I have discovered that realia uses three different categories of scaffolding. Those three different categories are materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. I noticed that to every student scaffolding is different to each of them. Realia is a great way for students to think about their past knowledge and build upon that. ]]> 2021-10-06 15:16:41 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796884603 Madison Tournay - Image tournayma01 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796926613 https://www.google.com/url?sa=i&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DRUzMkLK4XbI&psig=AOvVaw2-sCVmN-aGYK7_3LYTPLox&ust=1633620383691000&source=images&cd=vfe&ved=0CAsQjRxqFwoTCPjP4raMtvMCFQAAAAAdAAAAABAP]]> 2021-10-06 15:27:33 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796926613 Madison Tournay - Discovered tournayma01 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796935280 I have discovered much about realia. Before this week, I had never even heard of the concept. My teachers in high school would often bring in objects as visuals when teaching, but I never knew that it had a specific name.]]> 2021-10-06 15:29:57 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796935280 Madison Tournay - Observation tournayma01 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796945760 Something that I observed was the scenario in Chapter three with Ms. Lawrence. She focused on activities that were creative, fun, and engaging for the students. I also noticed her expert use of scaffolding and graphic organizers, which is one of my favorite ways to help students organize information. ]]> 2021-10-06 15:32:46 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796945760 Emily Bednar - Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796954349 After reading chapter three in our course text book, I really enjoyed reading about Ms. Olson's Class about scaffolding a unit of immigration. Ms. Olson begins explaining that there are not many EL's in her classroom, therefore, her class has a range of beginner to higher intermediate students. She was able to realize that her students benefit the best by having the text chunked into short segments. This allowed for all of her students no matter their standing to be able to work on the same thing. She was then able to scaffold to the students by where they were, lower and higher intermediates. Ms. Olson does a great job on her lesson for the students being able to learn something no matter their standing. ]]> 2021-10-06 15:35:02 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796954349 Kelsey Green: Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796963783 2021-10-06 15:37:43 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796963783 Madison Tournay - Question tournayma01 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796964591 How do you implement effective scaffolding for students in the same class who are at many different levels of learning?

Realia is able to be used as a conversation starter in the therapy setting. When a child or student is able to visualize an object that they are able to relate back to their personal life, it can spark useful conversation. I have never heard the term realia until this lesson, so it interested me that it is a widely used term to aid in classroom and therapy learning. ]]> 2021-10-06 15:46:10 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1796996504 Kelsey Green: Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797025203 When using scaffolding in a classroom most students are at different academic levels, so different scaffolding may apply to each. Is it better to use scaffolding in smaller group settings rather than a large classroom? Or is scaffolding able to be used effectively in larger groups of students too? ]]> 2021-10-06 15:54:39 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797025203 Kelsey Green: Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797060642 The first scenario in Chapter 3 with Ms. Lawrence interested me in the way she used scaffolding with her students. I enjoyed how the teacher used the topic of littering to help them develop an idea web on the effects of littering in the parks. By using the graphic organizer the students are able to visualize the key components of littering. The Teacher then modeled how to transfer the information from the organizer to a well written paragraph for the students. The modeling is a form of scaffolding that the teacher used to help demonstrate to the students how to transfer the useful information to a well written paragraph. ]]> 2021-10-06 16:05:29 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797060642 Maddie Younge: Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797063492 2021-10-06 16:06:26 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797063492 Maddie Younge: Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797073973 I have discovered the use of realia in the classroom. This technique uses real life examples/visuals to help aid the students in understanding the particular content area. It has the capability to invoke a deeper understanding and allow the student to absorb the knowledge a little easier. If they are able to relate what they are learning in school to their everyday lives, it will pop up more often than not. That repetition may get the student more interested in the topic. Using realia in the classroom will definitely help with student engagement and learning. ]]> 2021-10-06 16:09:44 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797073973 Maddie Younge: Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1797083360 One observation I made was in chapter three when viewing good scaffolding strategies and instructional materials. Some of these included modeling, graphic organizers, reading out loud, and using an ELs first language. These are meant to be supports for the students' learning. I realized that many of these materials were some of my favorite ways to learn as a student.

The one that I found the most interesting was that the teachers provide students with a ton of background knowledge before introducing their students to a new topic. This is such an important aspect to be a teacher, so that students are able to make connections to what they already know. I think this is why I found this aspect so interesting and so important for student success in the classroom.  ]]> 2021-10-06 23:54:35 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798040838 Autumn Lusk: Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798043327 After reading chapter 3 of Unlocking English Learners’ Potential, I discovered that a scaffold is support that a teacher provides to a student that is temporary and aids the student in being able to perform a task that otherwise he/she would not be able to complete alone. The three categories of scaffolds are materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. Scaffolds in materials and resources may include graphic organizers, glossaries, dictionaries, home language materials, sentence stems, sentence frames, paragraph frames, visuals, word banks, and word walls. Scaffolds in instructional practices may include pre-teaching content specific information or vocabulary, concise teaching of background knowledge, or reducing linguistic load. Pair work and small group work can also serve as forms of scaffolding.

These 3 different types are sensory, interactive, and graphic. sensory scaffolding was interesting to me because it uses videos, pictures, real life objects, etc. I like how teachers incorporate that into lessons because it can be more fun and interesting to students who aren't so social, with the interactive part of scaffolding can be fun for certain kids but not all, and the graphic part has lots of information but can be confusing to some. all types are helpful but I think it depends on what kind of learner you are. ]]> 2021-10-07 00:50:47 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798159540 Lexi Glena: Discovery https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798168048 I discovered during the chapter 3 reading that there are specific steps to take while planning to scaffold a lesson plan. The first place to start is to know your English Language Learners. To scaffold during the lesson you need to know their educational backgrounds to be able to provide what they need. Once you know the students, you need to analyze the language demands in the lesson. Being aware of the content language in the lesson helps narrow down the most effective scaffold. these both go into planning the lesson.

It can be done in any form you would like to do it, as long as it is helping the student to grow and form their education. It can and should be a fun and engaging scaffolding, so that students can use classroom activities to build their skills and scaffold without even thinking about the fact that they are strengthening their minds.

This is because most teachers and educators are more worried about making everything equal in the regards to students. When in reality, this may hurt students because it may be too much for one student but too laid back and less challenging for another. ]]> 2021-10-07 02:23:44 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798392535 Darst EDU 350 01 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798392980 One thing I discovered from the reading was the fact that there are multiple components to scaffolding. Materials/resources would account for graphic organizers, dictionaries, and visuals. In other words, any object used to aid a student in their learning. Another category is instruction. This includes vocabulary, background knowledge, and reduction of modeling.

The pre-identification and pre-teaching of content-specific academic language and vocabulary is component of effective instruction for ELs. The concise instruction of background knowledge can be an essential scaffold to support ELs in learning new content and engaging with complex texts. Also the use of language with a reduced linguistic load, repetition of key ideas and instructions, paraphrasing key concepts, and modeling can also facilitate ELs in more effectively engaging academic tasks.]]> 2021-10-07 02:28:27 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798403842 Darst - Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798406280 What do teachers get out of using the scaffolding technique? ]]> 2021-10-07 02:29:18 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798406280 Kyle Wingard- Question wingardks https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798409582 How much room for error is there for scaffolding on prior knowledge?

I learned that depending on the language modality being practiced ELs will need different kinds of scaffolds. I also observed the role of collaboration in scaffolding instruction for ELs. Content teachers can turn to their ESOL teacher in their school for resources and advice on how to scaffold a particular lesson.]]> 2021-10-07 02:37:08 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798426371 Marisa Smith EDU 350 001 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1798433817 My question that I have would be is scaffolding something you will eventually take away when teaching an EL?

The first category is materials and resources, this can mean providing graphic organizers and word banks. The next category is instructions which would include pretaught vocabulary and previous background knowledge. The last category is student grouping, structured paired work with small groups. It is important to find scaffolding that works best with the activity or learning style.]]> 2021-10-07 15:59:16 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800310241 Alana Robinson: Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800327701 In chapter 3 I enjoyed reading about Ms. Olsen’s Class I thought it was interesting how the teacher realized that she needed to chunk the lesson into shorter stories for the students to benefit from the material. If the stories were too long the students would have a harder time rereading the stories. So the teacher wanted to make it easier for the students to go back and get the information. Ms. Olsen was also providing the material in their home language which can be beneficial to the students and providing word boxes for the students to use. I can see how all the scaffolding activities would benefit the students.]]> 2021-10-07 16:05:48 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800327701 Alana Robinson: Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800338458 How could you ensure that the scaffolding activity would benefit the whole group?

In my discoveries on scaffolding, I learned that it is going to look different for every student. Every student in your class is going to need different supports than others. Scaffolding is supposed to be flexible and adaptable for you and student. I know that scaffolding is not only support but it helps build upon the students' knowledge and helps them overcome whatever academic boundaries that are at play. Once you know the student and their needs, you can give them specialized help in order to fulfill their needs. Scaffolding is interactive and should be a good way to help a student in need.]]> 2021-10-07 17:26:16 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800540999 Kristin Rhodes Observations https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800583651 I thought that there were many good points about scaffolding that deserved a good mention. First of all, giving bilingual students a translational dictionary helps process literary skills, build vocabulary, and help them as support tools. I also observed that student grouping is also a good scaffold that is efficient in utilizing other student knowledge and skills that could benefit everyone. You can pair students up, put them in small groups, and even make a group with you and the students. One last notable observation about scaffolding is that there is SO many different methods and items you can utilize as a teacher. You can use materials to support the EL, like graphic organizers, visuals, word walls, dictionaries, and more. You can use other students as scaffolds. You can different instructional methods as scaffolds. The possibilities to help ELs are endless!]]> 2021-10-07 17:43:39 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800583651 Kristin Rhodes Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800586086 Hi.

When scaffolding, it is essential to consider how much they know especially compared to their English-speaking peers. The teachers can scaffold by building on what the ELL already knows such as previous learning and experiences. It can also be beneficial for students to do pair work or group work as a scaffolding technique. Groups and pairs need to be intentional and should consider language and skill level. For example, an ELL can be paired with someone of the same native language or mixed proficiency so that they can learn from one another. Scaffolding can be a difficult task, but it is necessary to fully support and provide learning needs for ELLs. ]]> 2021-10-07 20:12:58 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800866327 Emily Sloan EDU 350: 001 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800878766 In chapter 3, I observed how to effectively plan scaffolding and what steps to take. Scaffolding may take time and experience as well as trial and error. Before beginning, you must know your ELL, their backgrounds, needs, and strengths. Then, consider the subject of the lesson and make sure that you use vocabulary and levels that are appropriate for the student. After that, you begin planning your lesson, creating specific objectives and instruction that fits their needs and be sure to include any background information. Next, I observed how to teach the lesson and what materials to use. Use of graphic organizers, sentence stem, and word banks can be really effective. It is important to follow all of these steps and base everything off of your ELL, their strengths, experiences, needs, and background knowledge. ]]> 2021-10-07 20:22:12 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800878766 Emily Sloan EDU 350: 001 https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800882556 If students are scaffolding in a paired setting, I read that they should be paired with someone with their same native language or another ELL with a different proficiency level. What if there are no other ELLs with the same language? Are they just paired with a native English speaker or is that too challenging and pairs are avoided altogether? ]]> 2021-10-07 20:25:04 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800882556 Laura Wainer Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800916687 2021-10-07 20:50:06 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800916687 Jessica Kroll Scaffolding Image https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800962805 The image above represents how scaffolding directly correlates to the zone of proximal development.

ELLs just need to learn correlating English phrases. Often times it is a misconception that ELL students need to obtain these skills. However, most ELL students are just unfamiliar with the English phrases to express these skills within the classroom. ]]> 2021-10-07 21:37:41 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800977208 Jessica Kroll - Question https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1800984136 As a teacher, at what point do you determine a scaffold is not working and implement a new one into instruction?

Different organizers work better for different situations. In some instances, it may be useful to use a Venn diagram when comparing any major aspects of a content area. For example, you could compare two major cities, books, or main characters. Using a Venn diagram, you'd want to make sure you are putting images of the words or characteristics that are being used, to help further ELs understanding of the words.]]> 2021-10-07 22:04:14 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1801008347 Laura Wainer Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1801075854 In the video, 'Using realia to build background knowledge', we see the educator teaching students about New Mexico culture.

I had previously thought that all scaffolds fell under the same umbrella and were not considered to be different from each other. In reality, the three categories of scaffolds are materials and resources, instruction, and student grouping. Materials and resources include things like dictionaries, glossaries, and graphic organizers. Instruction includes pre-teaching of content-specific vocabulary, paraphrasing, and instruction of background knowledge. Finally, student grouping includes teacher-led group work, structured group work, and structured paired work. Understanding the different types of scaffolds is an important skill for educators to have because it allows for the correct scaffolding to be used for each student for each activity. This means that each student will be given the proper support that they need to achieve.]]> 2021-10-08 02:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1801474602 Sami Taylor- Observation https://padlet.com/woyaoni/uo70v6542ulhv58w/wish/1801502453 I realized that many of my favorite learning activities I did in school were done using realia. Realia is a great tool to help visual learners focus on a topic and be engaged in the material they are learning. Also, there are many different ways to incorporate realia into a teaching environment, such as doing a scavenger hunt or memory games.
