    TEACHING ESL STUDENTS IN THE MAINSTREAM CLASSROOM

    It is vital for teachers to consider the language used in their subject area from an ESL learner's point of view. This informative program helps teachers accommodate ESL learners with real-life classroom examples and practical strategies. We explore how teachers can consider the language demands of their lessons and use non-verbal cues to enhance language comprehension. We then explain how language modeling builds learner confidence and how to differentiate between language and content when correcting. Finally we demonstrate the "Think- Pair-Share" strategy for concept checking and discuss the importance of integrating cognitive taxonomies and learning styles to build thinking skills.

Of course, we'll also explain pronouns - those little words like "we", "she" and "I" that take the place of nouns and keep your sentences nice and neat.
