ELL Models
"Pushing In"
Push-In ELL Instruction means that the ELL teacher comes into the general education classroom to support English Language Learners during content-area lessons. The ELL Teacher might sit with individual students, or a group of students, while the classroom teacher is teaching. The ELL teacher might also wait until instruction is complete, and then work with English Language Learners individually or in a small group in the classroom.
"PULLING OUT"
Pull-Out ELL Instruction means that the ELL Teacher pulls students out of the general education classroom to work in a small group setting in the ELL Room. During pull-out instruction, English Language Learners are not in the general education classroom. Students may be pulled-out to work in a mixed-level proficiency group, while others might be pulled-out to work in proficiency level groups (i.e. Entering, Beginning, Developing, Expanding, Bridging, and Reaching).
LOGAN'S APPROACH TO
ENGLISH LANGAUGE LEARNING
A HYBRID MODEL
Our approach to English Language Learning focuses on the development of our students' English Language Proficiency and academic development in grade-level content. English Language Learners work on their language skills (Listening, Speaking, Reading, Writing) while equitably engaging in academic tasks. We create an educational experience in which students are immersed in a continuously communicative experience with their peers in order to foster language use.
Our approach to English Language Learning uses both Push-In and Pull-Out models. Students are frequently supported in the classroom, with the appropriate amount of individual and small group work outside the classroom, in order to hone language skills that allow English Language Learners to fully engage in classroom instruction, discussion, projects and assignments.
