AZTESOL State Conference 2018

This session will be centered on effective instructional practices that help guide English Language Learners within an Arizona Sheltered English Immersion classroom to a level of confidence in learning and using the English language. The instructional practices will focus on helping English Language Learners build relationships with teachers as well as their peers through oral language and vocabulary activities. Effective oral language and vocabulary practices that focus on building positive teacher-to-student and student-to-student relationships will be discussed, modeled, and practiced. The instructional practices will demonstrate how positive relationships will benefit English Language Learners on their journey to becoming proficient in the English language. This session will be interactive, hands-on, and suitable to teachers working with elementary ELL students.
