Ideas for English-Language Learners | Celebrating the End of the School Year
Photo School calendars are different across the nation, so while classes may be in session for another two months where you teach, in another district, it’s time for prom, awards season and commencement. Below are some ideas for reflecting on the school year that can be adapted to wherever you are in the semester, and for students of any age and with any level of English proficiency. Since this is the final post in our English-Language Learner series for this school year, we also invite you to tell us, below, if you’d like to see “Ideas for E.L.L.’s” return next year. What could we do to make the series more useful for you? Portfolio-Making to End the School Year on a Positive Note Daniel Kahneman, a Nobel Prize winner, has found that we tend to make future decisions based on the “peak-end rule” — that we primarily remember how particular events and time periods end, and that our “remembering selves” tend to focus on the best moments among them.

Teach English Writing: Videos
Write Story Summaries Writing Skills: idea, word choice, sentence fluency, conventions, organisation Short videos with interesting plots make great prompts for an ESL writing class. Here are 5 videos which can help students learn English writing skills. What makes a good video prompt? I look for four features when choosing a video for the writing class. 1 Family friendly content Videos with swearing, nudity, graphic violence, bloody gore or sexual over tones just don’t work in the class, even in university. 2 Short and Sweet Videos that are 2 to 3 minutes work well. 3 Minimal Dialogue Videos with no dialogue work best. 4 Stories with a Message To get the best out of my writing students, I like to offer videos that work on several levels. The Writing Framework With a video prompt, I ask students to complete two main tasks that move up Bloom’s pyramid of cognitive domains. 1 Summarizing the Story Describe the main characters, the setting (time and place) and the plot (the basic story). 2 Evaluate
The Discovery
The Discovery The Discovery Question time! What school trip were the children supposed to be on, do you think? What have they discovered? How did the skeleton get there? What animal is it? What will the children and their teacher do next? Have you ever made a discovery? Could you write about this discovery or a discovery you have made? Perfect picture! Can you draw a picture of the animal when it was alive? Story starter! The children disembarked the bus, and stood huddled together on the road. Their teacher beckoned them closer, and as one they edged cautiously towards the skeleton. Sentence challenge! A complex sentence must contain a subordinate clause. E.g. Write a complex sentence of your own and underline your subordinate clause. Try starting your sentence with: As While When If Even though Although Sick sentences! These sentences are ‘sick’ and need your help to get better. The children got off the bus.
Nya ögon på egna texten · Mia Smith
Jo, jag skulle gärna vilja ge alla mina elever individuell återkoppling på deras texter. Gärna varje vecka, för allihop. Men det finns inte en chans att hinna det med den arbetsbelastning vi har idag. Korta texter är också texter Självklart behöver eleverna träna på att skriva långt, men ibland räcker det faktiskt med något kort. Feedback på gruppnivå Om jag läser texter från en klass ser jag oftast samma sak hos flera elever.
