ESL Literacy (08 of 10): Chalk Talk

This series of videos provides examples of ways to link oral communication skills and literacy skills. In this segment, the teacher uses an approach known as "chalk talk" to make information accessible to students. She draws the story of how her parents came to the United States and at the same time tells the story in words. She then invites the students to retell the story and writes it on the board. This is a variation of the "language experience approach."
