[Simtrainer-l] ELL recommendations

[Elford, Martha]

Hi Sue,

For her population and for EL, I would use Visual Imagery. She can use any text and any age level. It will boost comprehension, and she will see quick results. 

Best,
Marti

If there is anyone who is having success with something specific, please let me know.  Does anyone have recommendations for using learning strategies with EL learners?  This teacher just learned Fundamentals of Sentence Writing, and she is going to start with that.  She is fairly new to teaching, and she is trying to figure it all out.
