6 Instructional Principles for
Teaching English Language Learners




           By Erica Heisler
English language learners need more scaffolding
  and explicit teaching in order to be successful
  academically.




  The following are 6 principles teachers can use to
  provide their ELL students with adequate
  support.
1. Build on students' prior knowledge
2. Create meaningful contexts
3. Comprehensible input
4. Opportunities for Practice and
          Application
5. Positive Environment With Clear
        Goals and Feedback
6. Reflection on Forms of Language
    and the Process of Learning
And always remember...
" A teacher who is attempting to
teach, without inspiring the pupil with
 a desire to learn, is hammering on a
cold iron." - Horace Mann (1796-1859)
