ESL Endorsement Final

Marcia Bang 4400 Final Exam Part B

1. A. I disagree with the statement that on-le el st!dents and nati e English s"ea#ers get $ored when teachers !se SI%P to hel" the ELL learners. &he entire class can $ene'it 'rom SI%P. In e''ecti e SI%P lessons there is a high le el o' engagement $etween st!dents and the teacher( other st!dents( and the text. &his is $ac#ed $) *)gots#)+s Socioc!lt!ral theor) that states st!dents learning is enhanced $) social interaction. &his interaction is 'eat!re ,1- o' the SI%P model. SI%P enco!rages teachers to ada"t their lessons to all le els o' st!dents. &his conce"t is 'eat!re ,.( which reminds teachers to ar) the text to match the higher le el readers as well as those who ma) $e lower. Also( SI%P 1. incor"orates the /!estions or tas#s that "romote higher le el thin#ing( which challenges high le el learners and English s"ea#ers. B. A teacher with onl) a 'ew ELL+s in their classroom can "resent the reg!lar grade le el c!rric!l!m to the st!dents then modi') and accommodate 'or the ELL learners. &he SI%P . insists on ada"tation to all le els o' "ro'icienc)( ,10 incl!des !sing a ariet) o' techni/!es to hel" all st!dent with di''erent learning st)les( and , 11 enco!rages a L1 aide or "eer to $e a aila$le to assist an) ELLs. &hese( along with sca''olding 2,143 will allow the ELL learners to learn 'rom a lesson $ased on a reg!lar le el( )et modi'ied to hel" those ELL+s.
