GLADAmazing teaching strategies for teaching ELL
students!
Personal favorites: Inquiry Charts, Big Books, Chants, Scientist Awards, Compare and Contrast, Response Journals, Found poetry, and Sentence Pattern.
There is a plethora of resources and opportunities for application

Sentence PatternOne of the strategies used for GLAD
Teaches All parts of speech to a tune
When applied the learning is immediate- it will stick in your students minds
Tuesday, November 23, 2010
Sentence FramesMany, many options...
One of my favorite frames includes this form for a summary sentence:
Someone/wanted/but/so
Example: The big bad wolf wanted to eat one of the three little pigs, but he was unsuccessful in his attempts to blow down a house so he climbed down a chimney.

Expert TeachersStudents set personal goals- they decide to become experts at an aspect of a lesson (i.e. strong ending, internal commas, hooks, paragraphs, activity directions...Whenever a student is absent or confused ask for an expert teacher. Students love to help their peers and will be attentive to teacher directions, so that they may get the chance to be the Expert.

Word of the Day

Mimic Writing
Students read multiple picture books
Notice author craft
Students choose a book or author to mimic
Students write their own story version
Celebrate the accomplishment

CHOICE PROMPTS/ WRITING DERBY
Allow students to choose between prompts for quick writes
Students generate writing for 5 minutes, then count words, and graph their progress (fast visual for student and teacher)
This can be extended later to any focus in writing (i.e. have students count mind-movie sentences or vivid verbs or helping verbs)
It is simple; students with a reluctance for writing will gladly play this basic “game.”

Sensory Field Trip
When teaching the five senses, first provide understanding with visual cueing cards and
real world examples- fresh oranges, bird calls, a fan...
Once students have a grasp, take them on a field trip of the school- the corridors, the
outside field, a different classroom- and have them classify the different senses. Allow
students only a few minutes in each location. They will be focused and intent on
identifying as many different senses as they can.
This can then be expanded on with a poetry lesson.
