My ELL students will use the Tablets throughout the day in every subject area. My English Language Learners need access to Tablets throughout the day to increase their engagement and improve their chances of long-term academic success! During Reading, students will use the Tablets to explore instructional programs which teach the fundamentals of reading in English. They will also listen to audio books and participate in individualized online word study programs, thereby increasing their acquisition of academic language. My ELL students will use the Tablets during Writing to research and dictate persuasive essays. By using technology to express their own opinions, my ELL students will build their self-confidence and feel more comfortable participating in class. When students participate more in class, they will further develop their speaking and listening skills. My students will also use the Tablets during differentiated Math instruction. They will participate in an online math program which explains math concepts using spatial-temporal modules, thereby bypassing the language barrier and allowing students to gradually gain understanding of complex mathematics at a natural and comfortable pace. Overall, my ELL students will use the Tablets throughout the day in every content area in order to increase engagement, improve acquisition of academic language, build self-confidence, differentiate instruction, and ultimately improve their chances of long-term academic success!
