Click the link below to take a look! →Everything You Need for ELL Newcomers ULTIMATE Bundle← --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why this program? I know what it's like to be unsure of how to support your ELL students. In my early years of teaching, I oftentimes didn't know how to support my ELL students either, nor did I have the time to give them the materials they desperately needed. Instead, I would end up giving them a worksheet in hopes they could at least learn a few vocabulary words. After receiving my ESL endorsement and working with ELL students for many years, I have become passionate about giving ELL students ample opportunities to learn while also supporting teachers by creating a more engaging curriculum for ELL Learners. This program goes way beyond the typical worksheet. It incorporates weekly rich vocabulary lessons, along with an interactive grammar notebook activity, speaking games, authentic reading and writing opportunities, and an extra practice opportunity for homework. Daily lesson plans are provided so even a teacher assistant or parent volunteer can offer support. The most important piece of this curriculum is seeing the joy on students' faces when they begin to recognize vocabulary and speak sentences in a new language. ✍Related Products Interested in another resource for newcomers or the needs of your rising ELL students?
