The video gave me lots of insight on how to address ELL students. How to bring language alive no matter what language a child may speak.

I believe that this video show me it is important to use a wide variety of strategies to help ELL kids. If we only employ one or two methods we are not likely to get great results. However if we use many different strategies, we will reach more kids at a greater level as well.

This video provides a number of unique strategies that are meant to help with the education of English Language Learners. Two of these strategies, non-verbal communication and modeling, are things that I have found to be extremely effective in the classroom. Thank you so much for posting this piece and providing some further insight into these areas.
