Second Language Learning

  • Is not a disability but rather a “temporary

situation”

  • ELLs need time to develop language skills in
  • rder to achieve competency in academic

tasks

  • What we do as teachers while this process takes

place has a significant impact on student motivation and self-confidence

What is comprehensible Instruction?

Need for understanding of Second Language Learning

  • Teachers sometimes think all students need

to be on the “same playing field” when it comes to assessment and that students need to be compared to one another

  • ELLs need teachers who understand the

second language acquisition process

– It take approximately 2-3 years for English oral proficiency – It takes approximately 7-10 years for academic proficiency equivalent to that of mainstreamed monolingual students

Instruction and Assessment

  • Just as we are mandated to make

instruction comprehensible for ELLs so we are required to make assessment comprehensible.

  • As language develops,

accommodations for learning and assessment should decrease.
