Synopsis

"I've got a new student from Guatemala who speaks no English -- how can I make her feel more included and welcomed in my classroom" "Apparently one of my students from Vietnam was an 'A' student in his home country. But he's only been in the U.S. for a year -- what can I expect from him now" "How can I help my ELL students understand complex social studies concepts when their English isn't strong" "I hear my ELL students speaking to their friends in English; why can't they do the work in my class" "Should I advise parents to speak to their children in their native language at home -- or is it better for them to try to speak English at home" "How do I assess ELL students' progress in my social studies classroom" "...but I'm a social studies teacher -- I'm not trained in ESOL. Help!" NCSS Bulletin 101
