Ways that GLAD can help your students:
● The use of language in action-whether through expressive, situational or
productive register such as speaking and writing.
● Language in process through grammatical and lexical resources influenced by
context
● GLAD uses sensory supports (specifically visual) to make subject matter more
accessible
● GLAD uses graphic supports to organize information in ways students can digest

Pictorial Input Chart

GLAD Pictorials can be used

for subjects other than
science. I used GLAD to
review one of Aesopʼs
fables. GLAD acts as a
graphic organizer for the
story.

Show them how GLAD can relate to social studies that is embedded in our ELA
curriculum.
Teachers will use a learning log to check for
understanding after each lesson.

This is the learning log that teachers will use to check for understanding. They should
already have a copy from previous trainings.
