This project provides you with an opportunity to incorporate ESL methods and techniques you learned into your subject matter curriculum and instruction. Find an ELL student or a group of ELL students in your observed class to teach. If you do not have access to the student, find a secondary ELL or a former ELL in your neighborhood to work with. Among your five hours of tutoring experience, select one lesson and write about it for your applied teaching project. The selection of your tutee(s) must meet the criteria of 1) an ELL or a former ELL who is newly mainstreamed and 2) the grade level appropriate student(s): 11 grades for ELA. The lesson for your Applied Teaching Project should be a new lesson and last for one period (45 minutes).
Select a topic or concept in your subject matter and design a lesson or two to provide direct language instruction through talking, reading, and writing about subject matter knowledge. Borrow or adapt ENL-oriented teaching strategies from our common readings in your instruction. Give a rationale for your teaching decisions and strategies used. Cite from our readings and quote from those readings that gave you guidance and ideas for the lesson(s). Discuss five strategies you used to make language meaningful and comprehensible for your learner(s).
In your written report, begin by providing demographic information about your learner(s), such as information about their native language, culture, education, length of time of being in the U.S., and their English language proficiency levels. Explain your teaching focus, strategy, and material used.
In your discussion of the lesson, be explicit about the “hows” and the “whys.” Make sure to document step by step the exact process that you went about teaching the lesson, including your questions and your students’ responses in a dialogue format. Assign a writing task to your learner.
Finally, discuss your thoughts before and after teaching ELL students. Assess our common readings that you used to inform and guide your instruction for their effectiveness. Discuss what it means to teach subject matter language to ELL students and integrate language and literacy instruction into your subject matter curriculum and instruction.
Attach the student’s written product, your lesson plan, and teaching materials to the reflection. The report should be about 3-5 typed and single-spaced pages.
