This video, produced by the Regional Educational Laboratory (REL) Program, is part of a series developed for the Professional Learning Communities Facilitator’s Guide for the What Works Clearinghouse Practice Guide: Teaching Academic Content and Literacy to English Learners in Elementary and Middle School.
In this video, which combines clips from three classes, teachers model how to use word parts and cognates to figure out word meanings.
Second/Third-Grade Combination Class: This class has 20 students: 14 in second grade and 6 in third grade. All the students have been enrolled at the school since kindergarten. Over 75% are English learners, and Spanish is their primary language. Of the Spanish speakers, eight are at an intermediate level of English proficiency, and five at an advanced level.
Fourth Grade-Class: This class has 32 students, all but four of whom have been enrolled at the school since kindergarten. Half the students speak a language other than English at home. Of these students, one speaks Cantonese; the others speak Spanish. Three English learners are at an intermediate level of English proficiency; the rest, at an advanced level.
Sixth-, Seventh-, and Eighth-Grade Newcomer Class: This Newcomer Class is for secondary students who are new to the country and at beginning levels of English proficiency. The class has 20 students in grades 6-8. All are English learners, and 90% have been in the United States less than a year. Most of the students are at the beginning level of English proficiency, with three at the early intermediate level. One student speaks Mandarin, one speaks Korean, and the rest speak Spanish.
