America’s Choice Helps English Language Learners Succeed
A student body with diverse backgrounds, languages, cultures, and literacy experiences presents both challenges and opportunities for many schools today. America’s Choice believes that all students, including English language learners (ELLs), can achieve academic success given the proper tools and effective instruction.
That is why we have incorporated the most current second-language-acquisition research and methodology into all of our solutions, from our math interventions to our comprehensive school design. Our own ESL experts and practitioners have also leveraged this research to create exceptional stand-alone materials and professional development for administrators, ESL teachers, and mainstream content-area teachers.
Our ELL materials include
- Tools and information to foster collaboration between classroom and ESL teachers
- Specific advice and procedures to make the America’s Choice literacy, math, and science programs more accessible in a linguistically diverse classroom
- Guidance for school leaders on how to identify their students’ needs and create a culture of success
- Text in Spanish for use in Spanish–English bilingual program models
