Each week we will share one strategy that you could use to meet the needs of your diverse multilingual learners in secondary content classes. This week’s strategy is specifically for science teachers but could be adapted for use in many content areas. As you read through the strategy, think about your specific ML students and determine how you can use it to support all learners during Tier 1 instruction.
Language Objective: I can write my own questions about what we’re learning in science by using “why,” “how,” and “what if” to start.
LT: I can create questions about cells to prepare to learn more.
Introduce the concept of cells through a lab or demonstration. Prepare chart papers with subtopics like “living vs. nonliving,” “parts of a cell,” and “multicelled organisms.” Have students rotate between the charts and write questions they have about each topic. Display the charts throughout the unit and return to students’ questions as they learn the answers.
We would love to know how this tip worked for you! Please share any experiences with your PLC or ML supervisor, or email Tani Brown (Secondary ELD Curriculum Specialist) at tanib@provo.edu.
