English Language Learners are very resourceful students. You may notice your ELLs checking the name plate that's hanging outside your door to spell your name correctly, or referring back to a read-aloud you did last week because they've forgotten what a carved pumpkin is called. Developing this ability to independently retrieve information is critical for ELLs. As teachers, we can help them become more proficient with this skill by creating and posting quality anchor charts in our classrooms.
Quality ESL is not good teaching simplified; it's good teaching amplified! Instead of avoiding a difficult concept, we AMPLIFY exposure to and understanding of that concept. We present the concept in many different contexts and connect our teaching back to it time and time again. Our mission is to provide ESL educators with access to thought-provoking, complex curricula and the strategies, tools, and lessons necessary to AMPLIFY their teaching.
