Strategically-crafted lessons and activities offer unique opportunities for ELLs to participate in stimulating and thought-provoking learning experiences. This workshop will begin by outlining various engaging strategies, including methods, techniques, and scaffolds, that can be used by social studies teachers to help ELLs in the classroom. Next, we'll examine as a group a few highly-engaging and culturally relevant topics that may serve as a springboard for building social studies interest for ELLs. Then, we will work individually or in small groups to either update/adjust existing social studies lessons or create brand new ones that reach all types of learners.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to effectively apply multiple social studies related scaffolding techniques into their own curriculum.
